The Human Capital Group, Inc . (HCG) is a specialized executive search firm focusing on the recruitment of experienced executives from mid-level managers to CEOs, specializing in Quality Assurance and Performance Improvement, Six Sigma Methodology, Philanthropy and Foundation Development, Nursing and Human Resources. The Human Capital Group has been successful in matching highly sought after candidates with prestigious companies ranging from pre-IPO start-ups to Fortune 100 corporations since 1999. The Human Capital Group assumes an incentive-based, relationship-driven role with the companies we represent. The proof is in the pudding and we deliver results!

Defining the process is the name of the game. Establishing a methodology, increasing accountability, and maintaining cooperation between HCG and the Client Company are vital to a successful business partnership.

Historically, the executive placement business has been a cold-hearted, numbers game. The Human Capital Group does not randomly submit "unlucky" candidates, hoping that if, as many recruiters say "you toss enough bodies at a position, one will fit." We place Round Plugs in Round Holes. Each Candidate we submit is a heart-felt attempt to form a perfect match between a qualified Candidate and a qualified Client.
