US Matteson Partners, the Atlanta-based retained search firm, has formed a new subsidiary to compete in the recruitment process outsourcing (RPO) market.

The new subsidiary, ExactSource, is targeting companies needing to fill positions with very specific skills and experience. According to Matteson Partners, the name ExactSource reflects the emphasis placed on sourcing, screening and hiring to exacting specifications.
Jerry Schmidt, president of ExactSource and senior managing partner at Matteson Partners, says ExactSource is building on a process and technology developed by Matteson over several years.

“Many of our clients, particularly in engineering and IT, struggled to find and fill positions with very specific skill requirements. They asked for our help, and in response we built a technology platform and a methodology that allows us to find and fill those positions – more quickly and cost effectively,” he adds.

ExactSource’s proprietary web-based technology platform includes the ExactProfile, a system that measures and catalogues more than 114 skills and experience levels.

Candidates who complete the ExactProfile are entered in the ExactSource database and receive their own personal profile to demonstrate their proficiency and knowledge in a range of skills and disciplines.
