FORTITUDE SYSTEMS

Fortitude Systems is dedicated to providing its clients with the ideal candidates for their technical staffing needs. Fortitude's recruiters are experienced in locating highly skilled job applicants in virtually every branch of technology, including applications development, project management offices (PMO) and shared services, technical architecture, infrastructure and support, and communications and telephony. The burgeoning technical staffing firm currently has locations in Chicago, Austin, and Washington, D.C. with locations in Boston and Seattle soon to follow.

Fortitude Systems prides itself on a comprehensive screening process which includes two interviews with each candidate and a minimum of two managerial references, among other components. The managerial references must vouch for the candidate's technical aptitude and ability to perform the requisite tasks for an open position. Fortitude also takes the time to understand the culture at its client companies, which helps to ensure the right match between employer and employee.

Because Fortitude Systems strives to provide careers as opposed to jobs, it dedicates an equal amount of time learning about the consultants it places with client companies. Many staffing firms will contact potential candidates without understanding what they are looking for in a position, but Fortitude Systems expends a great deal of time learning about the candidate's professional goals in order to set them on career paths-not just match them with jobs that they will leave after a year. Fortitude recruiters ask candidates about the type of work, industry, and company where they wish to secure employment rather than match them by their skill sets alone.

Fortitude Systems is committed to maintaining an ongoing relationship with its consultants and has a formal process in place to keep the lines of communication open with both clients and technical professionals. Superior customer service is also at the heart of Fortitude Systems and the supportive and courteous staff is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to help clients meet staffing deadlines.
