About Agree
Agree works as a team and there will always be multiple hands on deck working to fill your request for a quality candidate. As we all know, teamwork makes the dream work! Most importantly, we make it our goal to have fun! If our team is not enjoying their work, our relationships between client and candidate are missing what we believe is the key ingredient… “Trust.”
For over 20 years, the team at Agree has been working with clients in local and regional markets in North America providing the right talent for the job. It is our team, network and recruiting engine that makes the difference! We are not limited to just our in-house headhunters but also a trusted national network that enables us to reach out to all candidates in all geographic locations in the markets we service. In short, we have the people, infrastructure, experience and networks required to deliver.

Years of Experience
What We Do
As headhunters we quickly and efficiently locate and screen qualified candidates who not only have the skills to be successful fit for your open positions but your company culture as well. We completely understand how important it is to attract and select the best leaders, so we not only search for great people but employ them as well.
Client Process
Identify & Share Needs
Through proactive client discussions, listening and extensive research we build a profile of the ideal candidate for the job. Once the iterative process is complete our talent expert collaborates with our team of headhunters to find the perfect qualified candidate for the open job.
Candidate Search
Agree utilizes its proven process developed and refined over the past 20 years that leverages it’s vast network, talent database and honed search techniques to identify a small pool of custom matched candidates.
Build Relationships
Throughout the communication and process our client relationships a solidified more than ever. We learn more about each other and trust becomes second nature. During the candidate the Agree team is also building relationships with the candidate, understanding their need and earning their trust. Trust is the basis for Agree’s relationship with both the client and candidate.
Submit to Client
Once our multilevel screening process has completed with the candidate we pass their portfolio along to our client to review. During this process we stay in communication with both candidate and client, assisting in setting up interviews, meetings and being a liaison for questions or concerns that may come about.
Hire!
Once our client has had the opportunity to interview and discuss the candidate, feedback is provided, ultimately ending with a new hire for our client and new career for our candidate!
Engagement Models
Agree works with the framework of the engagement models noted above and would be happy to discuss various engagement options / blends that might work best for your particular situation.
Retained Search
As the name implies, this search model entails an upfront retainer fee for services provided. This is Agee’s preferred model when searching for high level professionals, executives and unique positions that are hardest to fill.
Retained search creates a true partnership and allows us to act as a true consultant with advisory and overall process responsibilities with the client in regards to the search process and thoroughly identifying, qualifying and reviewing potential candidates for various positions. Payment terms are usually on third of the fee up front and remaining fee at time of candidate accepting the position.
Contingent Search
We find this model most effective for entry or mid level roles and possibly many roles need to be filled. In many cases Agree can still be the sole recruiting source or the client may be using other firms as well.
There is no initial upfront fee for the client with the recruiter being compensated upon successful completion of a search with a commission based on the salary of the accepting candidate for the particular role.
Contract Recruiter
As many companies may not employ a recruiter as a full time staff member and instead work with contract recruiters or in some instances mid to large companies might need some help during the peak periods allowing us to supplement their recruiting staff.
Our contract recruiters are paid on an hourly basis and can represent a very flexible solution for companies not yet ready or wanting to add recruitment staff directly.
