About the company

PeopleSharp provides specialized recruitment support for Managed Service Providers (MSPs) and other channel companies by acting as an outsourced internal recruiting department. Its model focuses on long-term partnerships rather than transactional hires, offering contracted recruiting at rates below market average with payments spread over time to reduce large placement fees. The core method, layered filtering, first screens candidates for potential, growth potential, and cultural fit, then evaluates specific skills and experience. This creates stronger, more adaptable teams for clients. The company differentiates itself through its emphasis on candidate brainpower, work ethic, and culture fit over pedigree, transparent hiring strategy advice, and a consultative approach aimed at improving the client’s overall business health and scalability.
