Rec2Rec Dallas
Dallas-Fort Worth is one of the fastest-growing recruitment markets in the US
We have the network to find the talent driving that growth.
The DFW metroplex is booming. A business-friendly environment, rapid population growth, a diversifying economy, and the relocation of major corporate headquarters have all created sustained demand for skilled recruitment professionals across virtually every sector. Technology, engineering, construction, financial services, and professional services are all active, and the best people across all of them are in demand.
Raymond George has a dedicated US team with deep roots in the North American recruitment market. We know how to find the people who are not on job boards and not responding to InMails, because we have spent years building the relationships that get them to pick up the phone.
Who are you: Client or Candidate?

Looking to hire staffing talent in Dallas, Fort Worth?
The best candidates in this market are not responding to job ads. We find them.
How we work: Engaged and Consultancy
We offer two service models. Here is what each one means.
Engaged
Our Engaged service is a retained search. You pay a portion of the fee upfront and we commit our full approach to finding the right person: direct headhunting, a proper map of the relevant talent pool, regular updates, and a shortlist of candidates who have been genuinely assessed. This is the right model for senior hires, hard-to-fill roles, and anything where getting it wrong is costly.
What you get with Engaged:
- An assigned Director and dedicated research team
- Role definition and person specification brief
- Market insights and compensation intelligence review
- Narrative and GTM strategy agreement
- Timelines and review meetings agreed
- Market mapping and candidate identification
- Sourcing and proactive outreach to active and passive candidates
- Candidate screening, evaluation, thorough interviewing and shortlisting
- Regular reporting and market intelligence throughout the search
- Coordination of interviews and feedback management
- Offer negotiation and acceptance facilitation
- Post-placement candidate check-ins at 30, 60, and 90 days
Consultancy
Not every hire needs an engaged search. Our consultancy team delivers a traditional contingency service.
Not sure which is right for you?
For recruiters: find your next move in Dallas
If you are a recruiter in DFW who is performing but feels like the ceiling is lower than it should be, or a senior professional who knows the next step should be bigger, talk to us. We know the firms in this market that are actually investing in their people and building something worth being part of.
We will give you a straight, honest view of what is out there. What the roles actually look like from the inside, what they pay, and whether any of them make sense for where you are heading. Then it is your decision.
Everything is completely confidential.
We support every candidate with:
- Confidential career consultations with no pressure to commit
- Access to DFW and Texas roles not advertised anywhere
- Honest salary benchmarking for your level and specialism

- Guidance through resignation and notice when the time comes
For hiring businesses: find recruitment professionals in Dallas
In a market growing as fast as DFW, the recruitment professionals who will make a genuine difference to your business are never the ones applying to your job ads. They are settled, billing, and not looking. That is where Raymond George comes in.
We partner with DFW agencies and in-house talent teams to find recruiters who will actually move the needle. Not the most available people, but the right ones. That takes a proper search, direct outreach, and a genuine relationship with the candidate market in this city.
Tell us who you are trying to hire and we will tell you how we would approach finding them.
What clients get when working with us:
- A dedicated contact who understands the DFW and Texas market
- Direct headhunting into your specific target talent pool
- Candidates not visible through job boards or standard LinkedIn sourcing
- Honest advice on brief, salary, and what is realistic
- National and international reach for multi-market or relocation searches

Why Raymond George?
We understand the DFW market
Texas’s recruitment market is unique in its pace and commercial focus. We know which agencies are growing, which sectors are busiest, and what top recruitment talent in this market is genuinely looking for when they are open to a move.
We headhunt, we do not just search
Our primary approach is direct outreach, referrals, and relationship-based sourcing. That reaches people who are not on job boards and are not replying to generic messages, which in a competitive market like DFW is where the best candidates are.
National and international reach
Dallas is increasingly a hub for nationally operating agencies. Our ability to search across the full US and into Canada and the UK means clients get access to a talent pool that goes well beyond the local market.
Get in touch
Whether you are a recruiter in Dallas who wants an honest conversation about your career, or a business that needs to hire recruitment talent, we would love to hear from you. No obligation. No hard sell.
