About iMatch

Human-led recruiting for a faster, more complex hiring market.

iMatch was built on relationships, market expertise, and the belief that great recruiting requires both intelligence and judgment.

National Reach. Local Expertise. With offices in Seattle and Phoenix, iMatch supports hiring initiatives across local, regional, and national markets.

Our story

Founded in the Pacific Northwest. Built for the modern talent market.

iMatch was founded in Seattle with a straightforward premise: recruiting should be better. Better for clients who need qualified talent, not resume volume. Better for candidates who deserve a recruiter who actually understands their goals.

Over time, we expanded into Arizona and built national capabilities for clients who hire remotely, regionally, and globally. We added specialized recruiting teams across technology, accounting and finance, AI growth talent, solutions engineering, and executive search.

Today, iMatch combines modern tools and AI-assisted research with the same recruiter-led, human-validated approach that has always defined how we work. We are not a software company. We are a recruiting firm that uses better tools to deliver better results.

Executive search is delivered through Montlake Group, our dedicated executive search brand led by iMatch partners Darren Casey, Brad Marshall and Dan Staggs.

How we operate

What we believe about recruiting.

Human judgment first

AI and modern tools help us move faster and map the market better. But our value is still human judgment, relationship-building, and recruiting expertise.

Better signal, less noise

We submit fewer candidates with more context. We would rather send you three excellent candidates than fifteen mediocre ones.

Real relationships

We meet every candidate we submit. We take time to understand every client we serve. Recruiting is a relationship business.

Honest and direct

We tell clients when a search is going to be hard. We tell candidates when a role is not the right fit. Honesty builds trust faster than optimism.
