We are constantly adding to our network by keeping pace with industry trends, attending trade shows, and most importantly, listening to our clients’ needs.

Clients
Seventy percent of the global workforce are passive candidates.
Passive candidates aren’t actively looking for new positions. For the most part, they are gainfully employed. However, this doesn’t mean that they’re not open to the idea of a better opportunity.
If you’re going to catch the eye of a passive candidate, then you’ll have to expand your recruiting strategy beyond resources like CareerBuilder, Indeed, or job fairs — passive candidates won’t be there.
This is where Keystone & Golden becomes the difference…we contact and speak with passive candidates daily – constantly growing our network with experienced industry talent to match your needs. We don’t post and pray to job boards, we don’t throw a hundred irrelevant resumes at you hoping something sticks (you can just post to job boards for that), and we don’t try to push square pegs into round holes.
You can count on us to deliver only candidates with a minimum of 3 years industry experience and ready to hit the ground running for you business. Each candidate will come pre-screened to suit your hiring qualifications and we’re with you every step of the way until your hire is made.
