It all starts with BridgeView’s experienced team of recruiters who have an industry-leading average of 13 years of technical recruiting experience. This experience is combined with a suite of technology (including proprietary A.I. software) and processes dedicated to sourcing, screening and validating technical talent, plus a database of over 60,000 previously screened technology candidates. Our decades of in-depth industry knowledge, augmented by best-in-class technologies, allows BridgeView to produce highly qualified and vetted candidates at a rapid pace, saving our partners time, energy and resources.

BridgeView’s placement capabilities range across 60+ technology disciplines, and our specialties include Software Developers, DevOps Engineers, Network and Cloud Engineers, Systems Administrators, Project Managers and IT Leadership. While we serve all technical functions, regardless of the organization’s industry, BridgeView has accumulated significant experience serving the aerospace, financial services, state and local municipalities, food production services and healthcare industries. 

BridgeView makes significant investment and continuously innovates, in our strategy to screen and vet candidates. Our recruiting team speaks directly to each candidate directly to evaluate both the candidates’ technical and cultural fit for each job requirement. Secondary screening steps include online technical assessments, technical Q&A, and/or video interviews. Further, all candidates have two references completed and must pass a background check, employment verification and we also participate in E-Verify ensure employment eligibility and combat candidate fraud.

BridgeView offers a variety of services that allow organizations to choose the best solution to fit their business needs at any given time. These flexible solutions include contract, contract-to-hire, statement of work, direct hire, and executive search.

This varies greatly depending on a number of candidate and role-related factors including job description, years of experience, location, industry specific experience, niche technology requirements and the duration of the contract. For example, hourly bill rates for Technical Project Managers typically range between $100-$130/hr, however, for some niche skill sets, rates can be as high as $150-$160/hr. Rates for Full-Stack Software Developers can have an even broader range, depending on the aforementioned factors, with rates anywhere between $100-$170/hr. The good news is that BridgeView’s highly experienced team can quickly narrow on an appropriate rate for your specific need with a few key pieces of information and a brief intake conversation. 

BridgeView’s Permanent placement fees are based on a percentage of the candidate’s base salary and range between 20-30% depending on the level of the role of within your organization with independent contributors starting at 20% and executive functions coming in at the top of the range at 30%.

BridgeView is proud to offer Contractors a full suite of benefits including subsidized health benefits (health, dental, and vision), a401K employer match program, optional life and disability insurance, and free access to Calm, a mental wellness application. Contractors start every engagement with a collaborative and client specific onboarding process, to make sure they are set up for success. From there, we check in regularly with both client and Contractor to provide guidance, get projects updates and ensure a consistent feedback loop between both parties.

BridgeView has developed it’s own proprietary Aritficial intelligence application that speeds up and amplifies our internal recruiting process, so that we can effectively search through both our internal national database of over 500,000 candidates and external databases like LinkedIn. Using predicative analytics and semantic matching, this homegrown A.I. tool allows us to quickly and effectively find a select pool of candidates for job requirements, reducing the number of human screens required to identify the right candidate for your team.

Typically, we can provide candidates with 2-3 business days after a requirements discovery call. For niche, deep-dive roles, turnaround is about a week.

BridgeView follows a methodical process to match candidates for each new job requisition. After a client discovery call is completed, we determine the key required and preferred skills for the requirement. Factoring in the location, experience level, compensation, and other details, we can effectively identify a targeted pool of candidates. We develop customized outreach campaigns for each job requirement and on average, for every three candidates we screen, we’ll identify one candidate that matches all the requirements.

Yes. Some recent examples of successful placements include Contractors we staffed for a Fortune-500 company within the financial services sector, that will create a new cloud infrastructure for a critical SaaS application; a team of three Software Engineers working on an AI/ML software solution for a start-up company; a successful retained search for a VP of Technology Infrastructure at an organization within the aerospace industry.

In the case of a direct hire placement that is terminated for cause or any performance related issues, or if the Candidate chooses to terminate employment, within the first 90 days, BridgeView will provide a refund according to the following: if the candidate is terminated within the first 30 calendar days, BridgeView will provide a 75% refund; if the candidate is terminated within the first 31 to 60 calendar days, BridgeView will provide a 50% refund; and if the candidate is terminated within the first 61-90 days, BridgeView will provide a 25% refund. However, over the past three years, over 96% of BridgeView,s direct placements have still been on the job after 6 months, so the above scenario is extremely rare. For Contractors, we offer an 80-hour guarantee and will not be billed for their time if the contractor is removed for any reason within the first two weeks of their placement.

In addition to speaking with hundreds of candidates and hiring managers about their new technology capabilities, the BridgeView team regularly participates in team training. Via LinkedIn Learning, our internal Consulting team, and industry webinars, we have recently completed training on topics about cybersecurity, diversity recruiting, and Artificial Intelligence.  

Prior to placement, we take several steps to ensure a candidate can work effectively in a remote or hybrid scenario. We conduct video interviews, check references, and can also run a digital ID and location verification to ensure they are the ones performing the work.  We meet with all new Contractors via a video meeting prior to their assignment to confirm remote work expectations and best practices.

BridgeView adheres to ethical hiring practices and focuses on finding the best talent for your needs without targeting employees from your company. Our goal is to build long-term partnerships based on trust and mutual respect, ensuring that “we” support your business objectives without compromising your existing workforce.

Candidate referrals and networking are most important to maintain a strong candidate pool. We stay in contact with previously screened candidates we represented in the past, as well as prior placements and Contractors so we can represent them again when appropriate. Also, via AI technology, we refresh candidate profiles in our database that have not been updated in the last 3 years.
