FAQs

What makes Prevail Recruiting different from other staffing agencies?

At Prevail Recruiting, we’ve flipped the traditional agency model on its head. Our recruiters run a true 360/full desk—handling client relationships, sourcing, and placements—so there’s no “handoff” or diluted ownership of the process. This creates stronger client partnerships, better candidate matches, and faster results. We pair elite human recruiters with AI-powered sourcing tools and a lead distribution system, allowing us to deliver talent up to 50% faster than industry averages. And unlike most agencies, we put recruiters first—with higher commissions, clear overrides for leaders, and a culture built for autonomy, trust, and results.

What industries do you specialize in?

We focus on ALL sectors where speed, precision, and top-tier talent matter most: Technology, Construction, Accounting & Finance, Legal, Biotech, Healthcare, Sales and more!

How is technology used in the recruiting process?

We combine Agentic AI recruiting technology with human expertise to identify, engage, and present the best candidates faster. From sourcing automation to pipeline management, our tools eliminate busywork so recruiters can focus on building relationships.

How quickly can you fill a role?

Our average fill rate is 2 weeks. But, timelines depend on role complexity, our technology + human expertise often lets us cut time-to-fill in half compared to traditional agencies. We don’t just send resumes—we deliver fully vetted, high-caliber candidates ready to make an impact.

Do you offer contingency, contract or retained search?

Yes. We customize our engagement model to the role, budget, and urgency. Many clients start with contingency search, while high-priority and executive roles often work best under retained, which our sister company Y-Scouts specializes in.

What’s the origin of the name “Prevail Recruiting”?

We believe in helping people and businesses overcome challenges to reach their goals. “Prevail” reflects our commitment to winning together and being victorious.

How do you vet candidates?

Our recruiters personally interview and evaluate each candidate for skills, experience, and cultural fit. We also leverage AI-enabled screening tools to ensure no qualified candidate is overlooked.

Do you work with startups or only large companies?

We partner with startups, mid-sized businesses, and enterprise companies alike. Our model scales—whether you’re making your first hire or building a 50-person team.
