On average, It costs $10,000 to replace a mid-level employee

On average, It costs $40,000 to replace a senior executive

“Jeff Gilbert and Kingfish not only dug into the needs of the positions we sought, but also took the time to understand our culture before executing a search. During that time, Jeff acted as a partner by advising us on the talent landscape and working hard to find the right fit as it relates to our life cycle.”

contractor placement

In our 20+ years, we’ve met a few people. And we’ve met some top-shelf talent who are contractors. Individuals who aren’t interested in full-time positions—but who bring incredible expertise to the table for particular programs. We’ve placed contractors for some projects that run several months. Some for several years. This can be a wonderful option for businesses looking for temporary guidance in a specific niche, or perhaps a pinch-hitter that’s very intimate with a particular development language. Typically, our bank of consultants are high-level, focused individuals who can step in for a short term as-needed.
