Amaru is a recruiting agency dedicated to finding the right people for the right jobs by focusing on real results. We work closely with employers to define what performance means for each role, including key outcomes and success factors. This allows us to match candidates who not only meet these performance criteria but also align with the company culture, using a performance-based hiring approach.
In addition to our recruiting services, we offer separate job search coaching to job seekers. This service helps individuals prepare for their job search, build their skills, and boost their confidence. Although distinct from our recruitment activities, these coaching services make job seekers better prepared for the job market, which ultimately benefits both them and the employers we work with.
Amaru's approach goes beyond just filling positions; we help create long-term success for everyone involved. Unlike most other recruiting methods, our process leads to better matches, stronger teams, and more fulfilling careers.

Our Approach
To align with our mission and values, all job opportunities Amaru recruits for and shares within the Amaru community must meet at least one of the following criteria:
Economic Fairness: Salary meets or exceeds a state's largest city's Area Median Income (AMI).
Brand Trust: The opportunity is with a name-brand employer, applicable at national, state-wide, and local levels. Excludes service & community engagement roles without clear pathways to upward mobility.
Professional Growth: The organization provides mentoring, professional development opportunities, and a demonstrated commitment to promoting from within, leading to tangible career progression.
Industry Potential: The opportunity is in a high-growth industry.
Social Capital: The opportunity has a high potential to increase applicants' social networks and influence.
Versatility: The opportunity is in a startup-like environment requiring a wide range of tasks, offering diverse experience.
Defined Pathways for Advancement: Roles with clear, employer-supported advancement paths challenging traditional career ceilings.
By adhering to these principles and criteria, Amaru aims to be more than just a recruiting firm—it aims to be a catalyst for meaningful, lasting change in the job market.
