Recruiting support
without hiring recruiters.
Subscription-based sourcing and screening for Canada’s industrial, oil & gas, manufacturing, and mining sectors.
Professional Sourcing
For Employers
Shadow Recruiters operates as an external, behind-the-scenes talent acquisition function. We don't just post jobs; we hunt for the specific skills required in high-stakes industrial environments.
Employers receive screened candidate profiles. No placement fees, no exclusivity, and no long-term ownership clauses. Our subscriptions provide flexible recruiting capacity without adding permanent headcount to your payroll.

Finalization

Candidate Protection
For Candidates
Shadow Recruiters does not mass-submit resumes or 'shop' your profile to hundreds of employers. Your identity is protected during initial submissions to ensure complete discretion.
You are never 'owned' or locked into exclusivity by us. We operate as an advocate for your skills, not a broker of your person.
"Your information is only shared with an employer after they express interest based on your blind profile and you provide explicit consent to proceed."
