"We can’t talk about how we’ve come to be a leading hiring and HR company without talking about where we've been and how we got here", reflects Herb Dew - Founder, Chairman, & CEO, HTI.
The year was 1999 – Herb Dew, John Knight, & David Sewell put all their cards on the table, for fear that Y2K could be the end of times. Lucky for us, it wasn’t – it was just the beginning.
Then known as Human Technologies, Inc., our business hinged on uniting job seekers with employers, providing staffing & recruiting services for technical, professional-level positions as well as temporary placements for automotive manufacturers. And while we remain deeply rooted in this field of expertise, we've learned and grown so far beyond where we started.
The workforce landscape has changed drastically over the years. And if the pandemic taught us anything it's 1 - we're relentless survivors, and 2 - employers cannot get away with the bare minimum anymore. Job seekers hold the cards and have the autonomy to design their work and personal lives much more fluidly than ever before.
These permanent shifts forced HTI to take a hard inward look at our own competitiveness - forever changing the way we approach partnerships with employers and resulting in a much wider scope of people-centric services in the workplace.
HTI is a holistic hiring and HR partner, working alongside employers to attract and retain talent. We're not interested in throwing people at a problem. We're interested in helping companies create, implement, and optimize people-centric policies and practices. We're interested in helping organizations be an employer of choice, a place people want to come to work - a practice we actively pursue internally. Our services prioritize hiring intentionally, training and developing leaders, improving the employee experience, and assisting employers in all industries to navigate HR practices and policies - all to drive sustainable talent strategies and solutions so that you can focus on what sets your business apart from the rest.
We know that when you invest in your employees, your employees invest in you. That’s why we use the lens of retention to inspire everything that we do.
"To look back and say you've done anything for 25 years is exciting. But it's also a testament to HTI's longevity and durability. A 25-year-milestone will cause you to reflect in general and remember all the things that happened along the way, all the memories, and people by your side. I have to say I am both thankful and appreciative," David Sewell - Founder & COO, HTI.
“A lot of companies in our space can make it to 25 years but are they as innovative and multidimensional? I would say they are often a one-solution provider, whereas HTI has evolved to provide a variety of options for customers," John Knight - Founder & President, HTI.
Our specialized areas of focus include:
Industrial Staffing | Contract, Direct-Hire, RPO
Professional & Skilled-Hourly Recruiting | Contingent, Project, Retained, Executive Search
HR Services | Training & Development, Fractional/Supplemental HR, Employee Engagement, HR Consulting, Outplacement
We’re still the staffing expert you know and love - still the recruiting team you trust - but we’re so much more than that too. How can HTI partner with you to help propel your business forward?
If it’s people at work, it’s HTI.
