What makes us stand out?

• We deliver results: 90% of our school clients have extended our contract and asked us take on multiple searches year after year.

• In 2022, we placed 35 teachers/leadership staff after the start of the year. We know how to find candidates at times of year when it's tricky to find strong staff.

• We are really good at finding math, science, and special education teachers because we do the outreach that no one on your staff has time to do.

• We organize ourselves out of a job and teach your leadership/operations staff how to conduct their own effective and diverse searches.

SPEED

“Naomi and Arianna were able to mobilize FAST. Within a month, we had a pool of strong candidates. I didn’t think it was possible ”

– Charlie Friedman, Founder, Nashville Classical

CUSTOMIZED

“We needed to fill multiple roles ASAP. After posting a handful of roles online on our own, we just were not receiving the number of applications, let alone getting the quality candidates we needed to start interviewing. Plus, we had limited bandwidth to manage our hiring priorities given that we are scaling, so there wasn’t anyone internal who could dig deep on searches alone.

Using NRG, we were able to set up customized searches for exactly what we needed, as well as an internal HR set-up, making three hires in the first four weeks of working with them. Our internal HR systems are now set up and running smoothly, we have 6 positions filled and are well on our way to filling all budgeted roles for next year.”

– Andrew Foglia, Founder & CEO of BOLD Charter School Network

quality & COMMUNICATION

“NRG is a quality consulting firm committed to over-delivering. They are creative and will brainstorm with you until you reach your desired goals. I especially appreciate their candid style and ability to support school founders who wear tons of hats. NRG will ensure you get your money's worth.”

– Dana Hammond, Founder & CEO, Academy of Media Arts

responsive

“Arianna was incredible to work with. She was responsive, organized and discerning. We would not have been able to move quickly and build our program without her support at a number of critical moments.”

– MaryAnn Reinhart, Chief of Staff, Brooklyn Lab Charter School
