About
We built the agency we wanted to hire
Prospera exists because the founders spent years on the client side, receiving twenty résumés for a role that needed three.
Our story
Volume is not a strategy
Most staffing firms are paid to move résumés, so they move résumés. The hiring manager absorbs the cost: hours of interviews with people who were never close, and a decision made under fatigue.
Prospera runs the opposite way. Someone who can do the job screens the candidate first. You get three profiles with honest notes attached, including the reservations. When the market cannot deliver what you are asking for at the rate you are offering, we say that on the call rather than sourcing for six weeks and blaming the market later.
For candidates, the same principle inverted: we only call about roles you would plausibly take, we quote real rate ranges, and we come back with feedback whether or not it went your way.

Why Prospera
Agencies are easy to hire and hard to trust
These are the four things clients tell us they were missing. We put them in writing.
Screened before you see them
Every profile has been through a technical screen with someone who can do the job. We would rather send three than thirty.
Answers in hours, not weeks
One named point of contact who knows your roles. No handoffs to an account team you have never met.
Pricing you can read
A single rate or fee, agreed in writing, with the conversion terms on the same page. No markup you have to ask about.
Staffed across the country
We payroll in 48 states and place onsite, hybrid and fully remote. Compliance is our problem, not yours.
In their words
What people say afterwards
They sent three people and we hired two. The screen summaries were accurate, which is not something I can say about most agencies.
First recruiter who told me a role was wrong for me instead of pushing it. That is why I took the second one they sent.
