Direct Recruiters, Inc. is a 10-Time NorthCoast 99 Award Winner

(Sept. 1, 2021) Direct Recruiters, Inc. is proud to be recognized by ERC as one of 99 great Northeast Ohio workplaces for top talent. This is the tenth time that our organization has received the prestigious NorthCoast 99 Award, making us a Legacy winner!

NorthCoast 99 is an annual recognition program and event in its 23rd year that honors 99 great Northeast Ohio workplaces for top talent. “More than a business award or event, NorthCoast 99 is a yearlong research project that ERC established to help make our region a long-term destination of choice for companies and high-performing individuals. The data from this program helps employers stay current on organizational practices and understand what top performers want and need so they can be responsive,” said Samantha Marx, Member Service Director at ERC, who oversees the program.

NorthCoast 99 winners participated in a rigorous application process that asked for detailed information on how their organization addresses top-performer attraction, development, and retention in the following areas: organizational strategy, policies, and benefits; talent attraction, acquisition, and onboarding; employee well-being; employee engagement and talent development; total rewards; and diversity, equity, and inclusion.

Dan Charney, President & CEO at Direct Recruiters, Inc. said, “We are thrilled to be ten-time winners of the NorthCoast 99 award! We strive to be named to this prestigious list each year, as we truly believe in building a culture that attracts and retains top-performing talent. We value our employees’ hard work and recognize that they are the key to our continued success, and this award is a credit to their dedication.”

“Talent wins in today’s labor market. The NorthCoast 99 winners know this so they continue to build progressive and innovative HR practices and benefits to attract and retain the best and brightest. We’re thrilled to recognize the 2021 winning organizations and look forward to sharing their success stories,” said Kelly Keefe, President of ERC.
