How Optomi Cares
November 13, 2019

— Sugar Spice and Everything Nice — I’m not a huge fan of nursery rhymes but that one has a good ring to it.

What does kindness mean to our consultant team? Kindness is what our Consultant Care team does well. That and a darn good job.

As we all know, success in business is because of the people. For us, it’s not only about the superior talent we provide our clients but also the internal OPS talent we have dedicated to making their employment with us enjoyable. And ours are the best. Helpful. Engaged. Nice.

Nice. It’s become somewhat of a lost art form in business these days.
One of our Senior Data Engineer consultants said it best in a review on Glassdoor, “This recruiting firm does things right with a personal touch. All the recruiters I worked with were great. And after you are signed they continue to stay in contact with things like lunch, care packages, and happy hours to make sure your role is going as expected.”

From on-boarding to travel logistics, relocation assistance to re-deployment on another project, our Consultant Care Team ensures our contractors have every resource necessary for them to exceed the expectations of our clients. Most of our competition relies solely on the recruiter to care for the consultants they deploy. We do not. Other talent firms (in the words of a Glassdoor reviewer) “pull fast-ones”. We’re better. Our “Consultant Care” is a team of folks dedicated to making a consultant’s experience the best it can be. They partner with the recruiter and the account executive to deliver superior support. This firm was founded on integrity, quality, passion and purpose. Intertwined with that is a heartbeat to do the right thing, to positively impact those we come in contact with and to simply be nice.

Our Consultant Care Team has reason to be joyful in their work. They get to be part of something purposeful everyday. Our consultants enjoy the knowledge that by working with us, a child is fed for the weekend through our Opt2give program. They are recognized when they exhibit our core values in their workplaces. They are invited to contribute to our consultant community blog. They receive bonuses for referring their peers to us. The list is extensive, but the point is, here at Optomi, we go above and beyond whenever possible. It’s just what we’re made of.

We are proud to announce that Optomi has once again been named one of the Fastest-Growing Staffing Firms in the United States by Staffing Industry Analysts (SIA)—marking our seventh appearance on this annual list. Earning this recognition year after year is not something we take lightly. In a constantly evolving market, sustained growth requires more than strategy—it demands vision, adaptability, and a relentless commitment to excellence in every facet of the business. This milestone is a reflection of the strength of our model, the caliber of our people, and the lasting partnerships we’ve built with our clients and consultants. We’ve remained focused on delivering IT talent solutions that solve real business challenges, while staying rooted in a culture that values integrity, performance, and purpose. “Achieving a compounded annual growth rate over the last few years of 25.6%, when the market as a whole has faced significant headwinds, is truly remarkable. It's a testament to the fact that during uncertain times, clients don't just look for a service; they seek a true partner,” said CEO Chuck Ruggiero. “This growth is a direct result of the trust our clients place in us to deliver the critical talent they need to navigate complexity and innovation. That trust, paired with the unwavering dedication of our team, has allowed us to excel in a down market.” As we look to the future, we’re proud of this achievement—but even more committed to what comes next. With a strong foundation and a proven approach, Optomi remains well-positioned for continued growth and impact.
