Client Testimonials

What Our Clients Say

"Most recruiters send us Python generalists when we ask for Go engineers. Discovery IT Group actually knew what Kafka event streaming meant — and found people who did too."

Anika Torres, CTO

"Finding BESS commissioning talent is nearly impossible right now. Discovery IT Group found two qualified engineers in under two weeks — that never happens."

Common Questions

Everything You Need to Know Before We Talk

Answers to the questions we hear most from hiring managers and candidates in critical infrastructure.

How quickly can you deliver a shortlist of candidates?
For most data center and IT infrastructure roles, we deliver a qualified shortlist within 11 business days. Highly specialized roles — such as hyperscale commissioning managers or BESS O&M leads — may take up to 3 weeks depending on location and clearance requirements.
Do you work with companies outside the US?
Yes — we operate across 20+ countries including the UK, EU, Middle East, and APAC. We handle cross-border placements for hyperscale operators, EPC contractors, and colocation providers building globally.
What sectors do you specialize in?
We focus exclusively on three verticals: IT & Software Infrastructure, Data Center & Critical Facilities, and Renewable Energy (solar, wind, BESS, and utility-scale EPC). We don't staff outside these areas — depth over breadth is our model.
What's your retention rate and what does it mean?
94% of candidates we place are still in their role 12 months after placement. We achieve this through rigorous technical screening, culture alignment assessments, and a 90-day post-placement check-in program. We don't fill seats — we build teams.
Do you offer contract, contract-to-hire, and direct placement?
Yes — all three. Many of our data center and renewable energy clients use contract staffing to surge capacity during commissioning phases, then convert top performers to full-time. We flex to your hiring model.
How is Discovery IT Group different from a generalist recruiter?
Generalist recruiters search for keywords. We understand what a Cx Manager actually does on a live commissioning, what a BESS O&M tech needs to know on day one, and which cloud certifications matter vs. which ones are padding. That context means faster shortlists and fewer mis-hires.
I'm a candidate — how do I get on your radar?
Browse our open roles on the Careers page and apply directly. Even if nothing fits right now, submitting your details adds you to our active talent network — and we reach out when a matching role opens. We place candidates proactively, not just reactively.
Is there a fee for candidates?
Never. Candidates always use our services at zero cost. Our fees are paid exclusively by the hiring company. If anyone contacts you claiming to be us and asks for payment, that is not us.
