See How Loxo Helped Top Tier Talent Group Grow 400%

If you’re a recruiting firm hoping to scale by attracting an elite team of recruiters, you need something to set your company apart from the competition. 

And while things like company culture and remote work are great perks, so many other companies offer them that they're nearly table stakes.

Top Tier Talent Group found a compelling way to entice recruiters: offering them the best possible technology.

‍“When you give the best recruiters the best tools, the best infrastructure, and the best support, they will come.” – Caleb Pilz, Top Tier Talent Group

We sat down with Caleb Pilz, Dave Speiran and Kevin Wood from TTTG to hear about their unique approach to recruiting — and how Loxo has been a crucial partner in their rapid growth.

A new recruitment model, built for growth

Before we start, there’s one thing you should know: Top Tier Talent Group isn’t your typical recruiting firm.

They’ve built a business model that empowers experienced recruiters with more control, flexibility, and earning potential. By creating a fully remote environment and providing top-of-the-line tools and support, they’ve attracted a high-performing team that’s passionate about their work.

“We’ve grown from 5 to 35-40 recruiters over 18 months,” Caleb shared. 

“That’s a 400% increase, and it's all thanks to our model of giving recruiters more control and providing them with the best tools and support." - Caleb Pilz, Top Tier Talent Group

And the tools in question? According to Kevin, Dave, and Caleb, the most important one is Loxo (music to our ears, obviously). 

Why Top Tier Talent Group chose Loxo

When someone new joins the Top Tier Talent Group team, it’s important to get them ready to start building relationships with candidates and clients immediately. So TTTG emphasized finding a platform that’s flexible enough for every elite recruiter, regardless of how tech savvy they are. 

“We needed a platform that anyone could use right away. It had to be simple enough for team members who aren’t tech experts, yet powerful enough for those who want to dive into advanced features,” explained Caleb Pilz.

And Loxo, with its all-in-one Talent Intelligence Platform and its intuitive UI, fit the bill. “It was very simple, streamlined, and easy to use. It was the only software where every button was just exactly where it should be. Everything made sense. It was very easy,” especially compared to using two or three other services to do the same tasks, Kevin said.

But Loxo wasn’t always TTTG’s top choice. For a while, they were considering going with a less expensive competitor. 

Just before they switched, however, both Kevin and Dave realized that they were rushing to do tasks in Loxo before their access ended. 

‍“We both kind of just stopped and realized we were making the wrong decision...We should definitely go with Loxo.” - Dave Speiran, TTTG

The right tech attracts the right talent 

For TTTG, Loxo is more than just their software of record; it's a key part of their value proposition to new recruiters. When a potential hire asks about their tech stack, Dave said Loxo's features often leave them "gobsmacked."

“Loxo is an all-in-one platform,” Caleb explained. “It has candidate sourcing, scheduling, and email campaigns for both candidates and clients. Everything is in one place, which makes it incredibly user-friendly.”

This simplicity is a major selling point — and recruiters who have used other clunky CRM systems will understand why. A simple, all-in-one Talent Intelligence Platform is a game-changer. “Loxo helps us attract recruiters because of its ease of use compared to other CRM systems,” Kevin said. 

A partnership built on trust and support

One of the biggest differences Top Tier Talent Group noticed after switching to Loxo was the level of support they received. In their fully remote model, getting new recruiters up and running quickly is critical. Loxo's dedicated account managers have made that process incredibly easy for TTTG’s team. 

“Since switching to Loxo, the number of technical questions we receive has gone down significantly. Thanks to the in-platform help and the support team, we don’t have to deal with as many administrative headaches.” - Kevin Wood, TTTG 

The partnership is built on more than just great support, though. It’s also built on trust in Loxo's larger vision.

A big part of TTTG’s decision to move to Loxo was driven by conversations with Loxo’s founder and CEO, Matt Chambers. Anyone who talks to Matt walks away with a deep understanding of his vision — for Loxo, and for the recruitment industry as a whole. His commitment to continuous improvement and innovation trickles down to the rest of the team at Loxo, from the product team to customer success and beyond. 

That sense of vision throughout the company isn’t just a nice-to-have. Kevin said it gives him confidence knowing the platform is always evolving. Even if a feature isn’t perfect today, he can trust it will keep getting better over time.

Key features that drive success

It’s no surprise that Loxo has become essential to TTTG’s daily workflow. The platform’s features allow recruiters to spend less time on administrative tasks and more time engaging with clients and candidates.

Each of TTTG’s team has their own favorite features. 

• For Dave, it’s Loxo’s outreach capabilities, which allow him to efficiently message multiple candidates at once.
• For Caleb, it’s the reports feature, which is crucial for tracking recruiter activity and identifying pain points. He believes this tool is often underutilized – but critical for performance management.
• Kevin likes the business development opportunities you find in the Deals tab, which helps recruiters manage candidates and expedite the sourcing, screening, and initial outreach processes.
• Meanwhile, the whole crew is excited about Loxo’s new Natural Language Search, which can find candidates who might not fit exact search criteria, a feature Kevin called the “future of ATS.”

Those three little words

To wrap up the conversation, we asked Kevin, Dave, and Caleb to describe Loxo in just one word.

• Kevin: “Easy.”
• Dave: “Efficient.”
• Caleb: “Smooth.”

Talk about a triple threat, eh? 

Long story short

For Top Tier Talent Group, Loxo isn't just a recruiting tool — it’s an integral part of their mission to build a team of the very best recruiters, and then give those recruiters the freedom, flexibility, and infrastructure they need to succeed. 

“I consider it ‘the closer’ for a lot of my meetings. If I've got somebody on the fence and I show them the software, I literally watch their expressions change as they get more and more interested.” - Dave Speiran, TTTG
