Why DGA Careers for Your Insurance Recruitment Needs?

DGA Careers has been proudly serving the insurance industry for over 30 years, as the largest executive search and recruiting company focused exclusively on the insurance industry.

When we surveyed those responsible for recruiting, hiring and retaining talent in the insurance industry, we asked which criteria they believe are most important when retaining a search firm. The responses: 55% prefer that search firm consultants have previous experience working in the insurance industry and 52% value search firm knowledge of the insurance industry and contacts within the industry.


Insurance Industry Focus

As recruitment experts specializing exclusively in the insurance industry, we can find the right talent for your position, quickly and efficiently. Why? We talk to literally hundreds of insurance candidates every week. No generalist search firm dealing with several industries can match our in-depth industry knowledge and connections. The benefit to your company: When you have a need to move quickly, or unearth that “below the radar” superstar candidate who perfectly matches your unique requirements, we can respond. With our day-to-day focus on the insurance industry, we will present you with quality candidates who are the right fit for your position and organization, and we don’t need to spend valuable time researching the industry and its key players.

Generalist executive search firms may fill one insurance industry executive position a year: We successfully place multiple senior executives in leading companies in the insurance industry every year.

Our specialty also enables us to help you with job descriptions, appropriate compensation levels and advice on how to attract and retain the best talent.

Finding and assessing great people for the insurance industry is what we at DGA do all day long, every day.

Understanding Your Organization’s Needs

We invest time in getting to know and understand our clients. By visiting your offices, we have the opportunity to take in the physical location, observe staff engagement, get a sense of company culture, identify with management vision and hear inspiring success stories of people rising through the company ranks.

This insight into your business, coupled with our in-depth knowledge of the insurance industry, enables us to source select candidates who are well suited for your open position, on all levels.

Developing strong, long-term relationships with our clients, based on mutual respect and trust, has helped DGA establish our credibility and sustain a reputation for integrity. This is achieved through the demonstration of consistent business practices and our adherence to our strict policy to never approach candidates who work for our clients.
