Qualitec Family of Companies

People Moving Industry Forward

Established in 1977, the Qualitec Family of Independently Owned Companies is a group of 12 highly specialized executive search firms. Each company specializes in a specific area of professional and executive search, including engineering, finance, accounting, tax, energy-related services, vacuum coating, healthcare, economics, manufacturing, and paralegal professionals.

Headquartered in Houston , with a satellite office in San Antonio , Texas , Qualitec employs approximately 44 full-time associates with more than 360 combined years of recruiting and placement experience.

Qualitec is a member of the National Association of Personnel Services and 74 percent of our employees hold the designation of Certified Personnel Consultant - the highest offered by the professional association. The company is also a member of the Texas Association of Personnel Consultants and the Houston Area Association of Personnel Consultants.

At Qualitec we do more than merely match candidates to job openings. We offer unparalleled personal service - working closely with both client companies and candidates to determine precise needs and qualifications. Once we have a clear picture, we go to great lengths to ensure a good match between opportunity and candidate.

We are proud to say that we have placed more than 2,900 individuals in the last five years with less than one percent turnover.

The Qualitec Difference means integrity, confidentiality, responsiveness and personal involvement. These are not just feel-good words; they are the values and standards we live by everyday in serving you. We take our commitment to you very seriously.

We understand the difference between finding someone to fill a job and finding someone who will impact your business. We work very closely with our clients not only to understand the job description, but also organizational style, dynamics, culture and personality. At Qualitec, we are with you every step of the way.

Our candidates undergo an exhaustive screening process before being submitted to a client company. After completing in-depth interviews, we carry out a lengthy reference-check process. In addition to evaluating technical skills, we consider intangible qualities to ensure the candidate and company will be a good fit.

Once a client company selects a candidate we will assist in structuring the compensation package as well as help the newly hired executive assimilate into the organization.
