Godshall Recruiting

Executive search and direct hire in Greenville

Godshall Recruiting is a boutique recruiting firm headquartered in Greenville, South Carolina. It describes its work as connecting employers with talent and professionals with career opportunities, and says it has operated for more than 50 years. The firm handles executive searches, direct hire placement and contract recruiting. Its recruiters take a consultative, relationship-driven approach to each search.

Customized recruiting plans for employers

For employers, the firm builds recruiting strategies around each hire. It looks at the business's culture, its growth plans and the effect a new person will have on the organization's future. The site says the aim is to identify professionals who can strengthen teams and support long-term business growth, rather than simply filling an open position. Requests for staff are handled through its employer services.

Practice areas from finance to engineering

The firm names five core practice areas: professional roles, finance and accounting, healthcare, information technology, and technical and engineering recruiting. Its older material also lists nonwoven recruiting and executive recruiting among its specialisms. Employers in these areas can use the firm to find leadership hires and experienced specialists, while professionals in them can look to the firm for roles that match their skills.

Temporary, contract and temp-to-hire staffing

Contract recruiting covers temp-to-hire arrangements, in which a worker starts on a temporary basis before a permanent role is considered. Direct hire placements fill permanent roles through the firm's search process. The site lists these options together as direct hire, contract and temp-to-hire opportunities, which allows an employer to choose the arrangement that fits the job.

Support for candidates between placements

Job seekers can get access to career opportunities, which the firm describes as exclusive, along with resume and interview coaching. The firm also offers a free resume builder template and tips. It says it takes time to understand a candidate's goals, experience and aspirations before matching them with roles, and that its recruiters keep working on each person's long-term career path after a placement.

Employers and professionals at a career turning point

Its clients are employers across the practice areas, and professionals at a point where they want a new career step. The firm describes a relationship in which recruiters learn how each client operates, so that candidates are matched on both qualifications and fit with the culture of the employer.
