About Stellar Recruitment Inc.
Stellar Recruitment has spent years building incredible relationships and growing an extensive network of outstanding people in Vancouver. Because of our established, reliable connections and our emphasis on integrity, our recruitment style is natural, organic, and pressure-free.
Working with a recruiter isn’t just about “the right people in the right seats”. You want a star who will take the role and grow with it, make a positive impact on the business, and shine in your company culture.
Our network is full of stars. We make job placement simple. And we’re here when you need someone to find you the right spark.
Who We Are:
If you step into the Stellar Recruitment office on a weekday, you might find our recruiters collaborating with colleagues, on the phone with candidates, or taking their lunch over a critical game of ping pong.
Because our business is ‘people’, we especially value ours. We don’t impose a vacation day limit, and we like to spend time together outside of the office, even taking exciting trips to celebrate successes.
With an open, supportive environment and no private offices, outsiders have said we’ve “won the lottery” working here. We’re inclined to agree!
