Specialties

Atlas Coast specializes solely in the recruitment and placement of Information Technology professionals. Our experts cover a broad spectrum of technologies and disciplines.

Nearly every other staffing firm relies on Internet searches and job postings to attract candidates.  They are focused on getting job orders first, then reacting as quickly as possible to find resumes to send over to fill them.  Results of this method are mixed.  Clients end up having to sift through resumes and spend a lot of time screening the candidates on their own.  Candidates often feel marginalized, getting bombarded with calls and emails from people they either don’t or barely know about jobs that may not be a good fit for them.   

No two companies are the same, nor are any two candidates identical.  Just because the skill sets being requested might be similar, that doesn’t mean the person who has them is the right fit.  It is critical to understand these nuances, so we can find the right fit for each party. That’s where we come in.

FAQ

  • +What makes Atlas Coast different from other recruiting firms?

    Our focus is placing candidates and consultants whom we already know or have been referred to us. We’re not headhunters, we don’t advertise on job boards, and we don’t solicit people over social media. We believe it should be the candidate’s idea, not ours, when they are ready for their next career move or project assignment. We want to make sure every placement is a great fit for everyone involved. This approach has earned us trust with our clients and candidates and helped us make many good friends and long lasting relationships in the process.

  • +Does Atlas Coast place any skill sets outside of the IT field?

    Atlas Coast specializes exclusively in the temporary and permanent placement of information technology professionals. From time to time we are asked by clients and candidates for assistance in a non-IT search. In these cases we refer the business out to trusted partners who specialize in engineering, marketing, finance and administrative staffing, among others.

  • +What locations do you service?

    Atlas Coast primarily services the West Michigan and Greater Chicago markets. We will also consider positions connected to our existing clients outside of those locations.

  • +What kinds of companies does Atlas Coast work with?

    Atlas Coast has provided staffing services to over 200 companies since 2002. We have business relationships with customers of every size and across multiple industries. As with candidates, every client is met in person, and every job order is unique. This personal touch ensures we will understand who will fit well into the culture, both personally and technically.

  • +How does Atlas Coast find its job candidates?

    Candidates are referred to us through our existing and ever-expanding network. We are involved in local business and technology events, serve on boards with various organizations, and are actively engaged through social clubs, schools, and churches within the community. We put ourselves in a position to come into contact with people on a regular basis, the outcome of which is a collection of relationships benefitting everyone involved.
