What Top Tier Recruiting and Consulting LLC does

Top Tier Recruiting and Consulting LLC is a privately held U.S. recruiting and consulting firm focused exclusively on the insurance industry. Founded in 2019 and headquartered in Spencerport, New York, the company places licensed and unlicensed candidates into local and remote roles at insurance agencies, with particular familiarity with carriers such as Farmers, State Farm, and Allstate. Its service portfolio spans a Direct Hire Program priced at a flat $3,500 fee per successful placement, Personalized Hiring Campaigns with custom scopes, tiered multi-year packages (5, 10, and 15 Person) with minimum candidate guarantees, and remote or local licensed candidate placement add-ons.

The underlying platform combines a sales-led motion with a self-serve product layer. Customers engage via a dedicated phone line (406-RECRUIT) and free consultation bookings, while candidates and employers can independently access a proprietary database of ready-to-hire licensed professionals filterable by carrier, state, and experience, available through monthly or yearly subscriptions. A built-in virtual interview platform supports remote interviewing, and the firm reports having facilitated 150,000+ virtual interviews and helped 1,000+ agents over roughly five years. Marketing reach extends across the company's website, Facebook, LinkedIn, and SMS/MMS, with compliance under CCPA/CPRA for California residents.

The business model is a hybrid of transactional one-time placement fees, recurring subscription access to the candidate database, and multi-year recruiting packages. The company operates with a 7-person team, no disclosed external funding, and no parent company, and is led operationally by an individual known as "Gary" ("the HIRE guy"). The narrow vertical focus on U.S. insurance agencies defines both the addressable market and the company's brand positioning as an industry-specialist recruiter.
