Stop wasting time and money on bad hires.

We'll turn your talent acquisition team into unicorn hunters that attract top talent like a magnet.

So... who's that guy?

(and what's with the tux shirt?)

Hey, I'm Tighe Burke (pronounced like Ty, but spelled fancier). I'm an executive recruiter (10+ years), a hockey lover, and a father of four. Early on in my career, I was blessed to have a few companies take a chance on me, and it transformed my career and life. Fast forward to today, I run a very successful boutique recruiting agency, SRCH Partners. I work with some of the most innovative, fastest growing companies in the world, and I get to help them fill critical roles.

As for the shirt... either ya get it or ya don't.

Why do so many CEOs struggle to prioritize attracting top talent?

It’s the people at the company who deserve all the credit, they say. Every entrepreneur knows this, and yet most of them still struggle with prioritizing getting the best possible team to accomplish the mission.

Why? Because it takes time. And it takes money. And expertise. And, it requires developing an internal system to constantly, proactively attract people to your company. You need a talent magnet that brings exciting, reliable people to your company. And that is where we help.

We will train your team to aggressively source new candidates for each opening you’ve got - while decreasing their time-to-fill, and increasing the quality of those hires.

We equip teams with the absolute best knowledge and tools on the market for attracting the right talent - knowledge that stays with your company forever.

You'll create a killer employee brand and we’ll help you build strong benches for each of your most important business functions.

We will build a repeatable, well-oiled machine that will consistently pump out talented candidates for your critical open roles.

Here's how it works:

Evaluate

We perform an in-depth audit of how you're currently handling recruitment. Even if 90% of your current process is perfect, we'll find the 10% that needs tweaking to push your recruiting efforts to new heights.

Train

Our 6 week course covers everything from passive candidate sourcing to interviews in great detail. Once we understand your pain points, we will give your team detailed steps on how to implement what they learn.

Monitor

Getting that offer letter signed is only half the battle. We will continue to work with you to improve retention and ensure the talent you're bringing into the organization is there to stay and advocate for future hires.

"In the last three to four years, we've used three external recruiters. ZERO of the people that they placed over the years are still with Agexa to this day. But since you've trained one of our employees last year on your approach, we've had about seven or eight, you know, subsequent great hires and seven out of the eight are still here. It's been a night and day difference. Not only is she finding better talent with your approach, but she's placing people who are the right culture fit that will actually stay, so mad props dude, I'm only using your course to train my hiring team for the rest of my life."

- Nick Fisher, CEO at Agexa

"I was feeling overwhelmed with filling positions and struggling to keep the pipeline warm with A+ players. That’s when my boss came across Tighe and his Elite Recruiter course. After taking it, my life has changed significantly! Not only did I cut my time to hire in half, but the quality of hires also drastically improved. The candidate experience was taken to a whole new level and my talent pool expanded significantly. It truly revolutionized my approach to recruitment and has been a game changer ever since! Cutting through all the noise and hype, Elite Recruiter provides an actionable strategy for anyone looking to gain more from their network."

- Amy Frost, HR Director at New Reach Education

Tighe is easily the best recruiter I've ever worked with. Just closed a deal with him, and he not only found me exactly what I needed (which was a needle in a haystack hire) but was a pleasure to work with and really, really good at what he does.

Zal Shemtov, CEO and Founder at Moose

A recruiter is basically an ambassador for your business for as long as they're active on your account, and I don't hesitate to have Tighe out in the world representing us.

You might be wondering... why did I start Elite Recruiter?

Well, two main reasons:

1) I speak to hundreds of companies every year that need help placing talent at their company but can't afford my fee. I simply don't have enough hours in the day to help these companies myself. But by training their teams, I can help them develop recruiting as an internal competency so top-tier talent starts approaching them, instead of visa versa.

2) At my core, I'm a teacher, and I've been waiting for an opportunity to help others learn how they can do exactly what I do. If I had access to a program like Elite Recruiter back when I was starting out, I could have transformed my career and life exponentially quicker. Elite Recruiter is my chance to do that for others.

FAQs

Is there an application process?

We do have an application processs. Here is our reasoning: there are A LOT of online recruiting courses that have 100, 200, even 500 students enrolled at any given time. Not at Elite Recruiter. We pride ourseleves on personalized coaching, and the community we've built is the lifeblood of Elite Recruiter. Because of that, we're very protective of our current students, and we make sure that any new student we add into our program is will bring value to the community.

What skills do you teach?

Our 6 week online course covers EVERY aspect of the recruiting process, from proactive sourcing to conducting interviews to handling compensation negotiations, the list goes on. We have left no stone unturned. Still, if there's anything we haven't covered yet, Tighe will meet 1:1 to help build a strategy.

How long does it take?

Our course content is released over six weeks in order to provide ample time for students to implement the strategies that Tighe teaches as they go along. However, you will always have access to the community and to Tighe as a resource. Once an Elite Recruiter, always an Elite Recruiter.
