Direct Hire
Focused permanent recruiting for roles that matter.
Direct hire is permanent placement: the person joins your payroll from day one. As a direct hire staffing agency, Recruit 619 fills seats you already know are permanent, when you want the right person in it, not the most applicants.
When direct hire makes sense
- The role is permanent and already defined.
- The seat matters to the team, a client or a project, so a wrong hire is expensive.
- The strongest candidates are already employed and are not applying to postings.
- You want someone who will be part of the business long term.
How a direct hire search works
1. We get specific before we get busy. We learn the role, the culture, the constraints and what success actually looks like. Sometimes the candidate isn’t the problem. The role is, and we will tell you.
2. We recruit, not just search. The strongest candidate may never apply, so we go to people who are doing the work today.
3. You meet people worth meeting. We don’t send stacks. Candidates are screened for the role, the team and the reason the seat matters, and arrive interview-ready.
4. Straight feedback and clear communication. You know where the search stands, what the market is telling us, and what the role will actually take.

Direct hire questions
What does a direct hire staffing agency do?
It finds and screens candidates for a permanent role. The person you choose joins your payroll from day one as your own employee. Recruit 619 learns the role first, recruits people who are doing the work today, and sends screened candidates who arrive interview-ready.
How is direct hire different from contract-to-hire?
With direct hire, the person is your employee from the start. With contract-to-hire, they start on a contract and you see the work before making a permanent offer. Contract-to-hire fits when you want to see the fit on the job first.
When is executive search a better fit than direct hire?
For senior leadership seats and confidential replacements, a deeper executive search engagement is often worth it. Direct hire fits permanent roles that are already defined.

Not the right fit?
If you want to see the work before making an offer, look at contract-to-hire. If the work has an end date, contract staffing fits better. For senior leadership seats, see executive search. For how the models compare, read contract vs. direct hire.
