Our Mission

“SRPR provides traditional employee recruitment as well as
creative retention and training services. We work closely
with clients to provide uniquely customized solutions for
maintaining the highest quality staff.”

Today, SRPR provides a full range of recruiting and selection
services to hundreds of clients designed to meet a myriad of
needs. Our clientele represents many areas; some of them are:
industrial, software, hardware, medical, services, high-tech,
pharmaceuticals, and business products.

We place candidates from diversified backgrounds and
experiences from entry level to sales representatives, from
account executives to product managers and from sales
engineers to vice presidents.

We look forward to continuing to serve those companies
who view sales people as a valuable asset to their
organization.

Our Philosophy

“We place people, not paper. We have a hands on approach
where we implement world class practices. Our
methodology is called “Intelligent Hiring Practices.” We
believe in hiring the right people the first time! Companies
hire people to grow, compete and offer new services;
to grow their top line and increase their profits. In our
experience we have found that one who raises trivial
objections over the cost of hiring a salesperson, who
delivers 200 of quota, is one generally not aligned with
operational priorities. Finding and retaining talent is critical
to any organization’s success.”

We take a more pro-active approach in a candidate’s
search for career opportunities. After reviewing a given
candidate’s credentials, we emphasize meeting the
candidate in person. This allows us to better discover the
skills, personality and objectives in acquiring a sales
position. This also gives the candidate the opportunity to
meet us, the recruiters. This is a part of our core culture
and values.

Since 1988

The company was established in 1988 in Chicago; since then
we worked closely with clients to confront the challenges of
a competitive business environment, meeting their individual
needs and helping them profit and grow.
Sales Recruiters Puerto Rico Inc. branch was recently open
with the same commitment to the company values.

Human Capital Solutions, a branding company, describes
four levels of value:
•  Basic—absolute essential attributes of the experience;
•  Expected—associated attributes that customers have
come to take for granted;
•  Desired—attributes the customer doesn’t necessarily
expect, but appreciates when they emerge;
•  Unanticipated—unanticipated attributes that add value
for the customer beyond typical desires and expectations.

SRPR strives to always provide the unanticipated level of
service for an unprecedented level of client satisfaction
and success. Here are just a few examples of how SRPR’s
partnership with clients provides unparalleled value to help
clients solve their business problems and succeed.

Consulting Services

We offer a mix of services that include a life-cycle
methodology that aligns recruiting with sales and addresses
every step of a successful hiring practice:
• Planning
• Prospecting
• Qualifying
• Evaluating
• Closing
• Coaching

Each phase of this methodology addresses a critical step in
finding, assessing, hiring and retaining your top sales people.

Recruiting Support
We offer three primary approaches to conducting recruiting
assignments which is set forth by your recruiting needs:
• High-volume, long-term hiring and turnkey process
management;
• Single hire, high-level position;
• Low-volume, immediate to short-term
hiring window.

Retained Recruiting
• Profiling and Sourcing;
• Qualify Submission of Candidate Shortlist;
• Interviews, Selection, and Offer.

Retained engagements, by their very nature, require close
coordination between you and the selection process, and
will require a commitment of time and resource.

Partial Contingency “Retingency” Recruiting
The “retingency” engagement is similar in structure to a
traditional contingency search; however, the initial retainer
(typically no more than 25% of the total fee) is intended to
ensure that both sides have an investment in the game.
This engagement is used when you have needs at the
individual contributor level and may have needs from a
single position to multiple hires.

When conducting recruiting engagements, we function as
an extension of your staff and act as a member of your
organization; we become an integral part of building your
team and work closely with executives, hiring managers,
other recruiters and human resource professionals.

Hiring Decision Support
Our Hiring Decision Support Tools are designed to help you
when you need to:
• Select the right candidate to hire;
• Select the right person to promote;
• Assess the skills & capabilities of your current team;
• Set priorities for training & development of your
current team;
• Develop individual development & management strategies.

Process Consulting
As your partner in recruiting, when you always have a place
for an individual with specific background and/or
expertise—SRC will maintain an ongoing file, detailing your
areas of interest, and bring any candidate meeting such
qualifications to your immediate attention.

If you want to know about top performers, the sales, and
sales management leaders—SRI provides you with quarterly
mailings outlining the career history and professional
accomplishments of outstanding candidates who are
available to meet with you.

Our consulting expertise includes
• Benchmarking your top performers and creating a
Hiring Model;
• Developing a comprehensive Sourcing Plan designed to
get more and better qualified candidates;
• Devising a Sourcing Strategy intended to build “brand
identity” and attract the best talent available;
• Performing Capacity Planning to identify the ideal size of
your recruiting organization to support your growth plans
and achieve high quality hires;
• Developing your hiring team’s skills as interviewers and
evaluators of quality prospects;
• Negotiating appropriate, competitive offers;
• Coaching and developing your new hires for maximum
performance;
• Evaluating current “problem” staff and determining/
developing their potential.

Testimonials

We’d like to share with you some of the things people are
saying about SRC.
“My experience with SRC has been nothing but positive.
His professionalism and sincerity are exactly what we need
in a Recruiter. We put a lot of pressure on any Recruiters
that we utilize because we do not have the time to recruit
quality candidates.”
— Tim P., Business Products Client
“Other recruiters that I had previously engaged were
consistently sending me candidates that were not
professionally screened and/or qualified. Al listened to me
and identified candidates that fit the profile I was looking for.
He knew how to recruit, screen, and qualify the right
candidates. Finally he helped us hire the one that was right
for us.”
— Darrell V., Graphics Client
“My most recent experience with SRC was when I had asked
for their help in a highly confidential search for a Consumer
Products Senior Level Manager. The only problem that I was
faced with was the difficult task of choosing.”
— DP, Consumer Client

“... One of measurements I use to consider using future
business services such as yours is credibility. Based on the
overall experience with Sales Recruiters Chicago credibility is
without a question one of your strengths...”
— Dave D., Industrial Client
“... I trust your judgment and am pleased to say that I feel
you have found me a candidate who appears to have what
I consider the skills to succeed...”
— Peter C., Telcom Client
“... Your work and cooperation through the hiring process
was excellent. From the first job order completion to the
presentation of candidates to the arranging interview times
to the reference checking to the offer negotiations, you
made my job easier. You paid for your fee five times over in
savings to our company and increase in profit per sales
representative...”
— Richard S., Services Client

could choose from and then hire. The net result was getting
the sales professional on board and ready to sell in an
