Knowledge and Contacts Equal Success

We know your organization operates differently than those in the private sector.

Our understanding of these complexities gives us an edge.

With corporate headquarters in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania and offices in Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Atlanta, Chicago, Detroit, Irving, Los Angeles, Research Triangle Park and a near shore solutions center in San José, Costa Rica, our team of recruiters has national contacts within the public sector and professional organizations, enabling us to find a broad range of talent.

We’ve conducted national searches for local and state governments as well as non-profits and higher education organizations. And, we’ve placed top executive talent in some of the nation’s largest cities, including Philadelphia, Los Angeles, Austin and San Antonio.

Before we start our search, we get to know your organization. We want to know your mission and the goals you have for the position. We’ll help you write the position profile to generate the candidates you want for the job. Your search is personal and customized to meet your goals. We won’t just pull names out of a database.

Many firms tend to look just at traditional sources for candidates— current public sector executives and managers and state government-related organizations. But at times, organizations can benefit from new thinking and new blood from outside sources.

That’s why Arcus Public not only searches traditional sources for public sector talent, but also looks beyond to new avenues. To get the best candidates, we’ll look at people in the private sector or with military backgrounds when necessary.

The fit may be right for your organization, or it might not make sense. But it’s smart to look into all the options. With the labor market shrinking as Baby Boomers retire, finding top people requires looking deeper into the talent pool. At Arcus Public, we’re responding to the changing dynamics of the job market and going the extra mile for our clients.

After conducting a series of stakeholder meetings, we’ll build a position and candidate profile specifically for your opening. Through professional associations and our own networks, we find a broad range of highly-qualified talent. Our recruiters look for professionals who have been successful in an organization like yours.

Then we rigorously qualify and investigate each promising candidate.
When we’re finished, you have a solid group of candidates that meet or exceed your needs.
