Daily training helps keep Whitaker in tune with today’s rapidly evolving technologies, equipping our staff with knowledge and skills to solve clients’ needs.

Candidate Submittal & Interview
Our team identifies the best-qualified candidates without subjecting you to a barrage of resumes. After each candidate is reviewed by you, we will assist with scheduling phone, in-person, or teleconference interviews. Professional references will be provided during the interview process. Additionally, your Account Manager will offer consultation during the preparation and extension of an offer.
Candidate Onboarding
Contract:
Once an offer is extended and accepted, our administrative team will assist in managing the onboarding process to ensure a successful transition of the candidate on the project. Your Account Manager will continue candidate support and consultation during the onboarding process. The onboarding process for contract employees includes Whitaker employment paperwork, pre-employment requirements (drug screen and background check, if applicable), and client policies & procedures as determined.
Direct-Hire:
Your Account Manager will coach the candidate for the possibility of a counter-offer, assist in tendering their resignation, and work with the human resources to ensure a smooth transition.
Quality Control
To maintain a successful track record, our Account Managers conduct quality calls and continue correspondence with both the candidate and direct supervisor to ensure an ongoing successful rapport.
