Find the talent
you’ve been looking for.
Spyglass works with companies where recruiting is uniquely challenging – including those in the development, construction, manufacturing, agriculture, distribution industries, those with limited brand recognition and most commonly, those with limited internal recruiting resources. It’s our goal to be an extension of our clients and to help address key vacancies throughout their organization from executive leadership to associate.
HOW DO WE DO IT?
We get it.
That’s how we get it done.
Identifying top-tier talent—employees aligned with your values who you can trust to help guide your business—is always a challenge. Pinpointing the one individual capable of stepping in and doing the job exceptionally well? That’s even harder.
It’s also essential.
That’s why Spyglass offers full-service outsourced talent acquisition services that bring a very experienced human touch to the process. Team members aren’t widgets; a generic, post-and-pray approach can’t possibly take into account the history of what you’ve built and the goals you hope to achieve.
Yes, it takes time to do it the Spyglass way. Time well spent: Getting to know each other. Looking deeper. Understanding the parameters of the opening and your vision for the future. All so we can find the one—that person who can take you to the next level.

Seek, and we shall find.
Mission Alignment
Relationship First
Success is rooted in trust. We invest in authentic, often in-person conversations to understand how a business operates before a specific vacancy is even discussed. By utilizing referrals and shared networks, we learn where talent can make the greatest impact on a company’s specific trajectory.
Charting the Course
Discovery & Hiring Alignment
We perform a focused evaluation of the search strategy. This involves diving deep into the company history, mission, and the specific nuances of the industry vertical. We align on team dynamics and leadership styles to ensure that the candidate profile isn’t just a list of skills, but a blueprint for a cultural fit. We initiate a structured discovery meeting to kickstart targeted outreach. We move quickly into the market, leveraging our vetted talent network and industry relationships to ensure immediate momentum.
The Voyage
Search Execution & Placement
• Sourcing Strategy: We leverage our internal database of 4,000+ personally vetted candidates, alongside LinkedIn Recruiter, LoxoSource, Indeed Sourcing, and additional sourcing tools.
• Screening and Validation: Candidates undergo rigorous screening including carefully calibrated question sets designed to probe technical expertise and cultural fit.
• Presentation and Selection: We provide detailed candidate submittals featuring our own “color commentary” that goes beyond the resume. Spyglass manages the entire logistics chain: interview coordination, salary/contract negotiations, and comprehensive background/reference checks.
The Mission Continues…
Post-Placement Partnership & Ongoing Advisory
The process does not end on the start date. We remain actively involved through the onboarding and ramp-up period, conducting regular check-ins with both the hiring manager and the placed candidate. This phase provides honest feedback from both sides, serving as a strategic advisory tool that helps anticipate future hiring needs and ensures long-term retention.
Well-run businesses do more with less, leveraging the abilities of a lean management team to oversee dynamic organizations with large or growing headcounts.
Which is great. But it can also make the process of quickly filling a key leadership position, or expanding the team, particularly difficult. Not only does it call for specialized knowledge, it pulls other leadership team members away from their essential day-to-day jobs.
That’s where we come in—aligning our expertise with your need, giving our full attention to the task at hand, and tracking down the ideal candidate.
There’s nothing more frustrating—or inefficient—than playing a game of telephone with important information, and watching as details and insights get distorted or lost as they’re passed down the line.
Rest assured that our personal approach starts at the top. The people listed here are the people you’ll be working with at Spyglass. Knowledgeable, available, accountable, and ready to get to work.

CORE VALUES:
We stay agile
We adapt quickly, embrace change, and solve problems without overcomplicating them.
We take initiative
We don’t wait to be told. We see what needs to be done and take responsibility for outcomes.
We take the work seriously, not ourselves
We work hard and keep perspective, and we value humility, humor, and balance.
We win as a team
We support one another, share credit, and prioritize the success of the group over individual ego.
We make sure candidates are seen as well.
The Spyglass approach to retained search ensures that the best candidates get the attention they deserve. Just as we do with client companies, we take the time to get to know each candidate individually, learn their strengths and understand what types of roles they’re best suited for.
We also support and advise candidates from initial client contact to interviews to accepting a position.
