We want to be a part of your journey


We believe that finding a new job is one of the most monumental decisions a person can make. People trust recruiters and companies with their lives and livelihoods, and we at The Ethical Recruiting Company don’t take that lightly.

We rigorously assess every single company in our network to ensure they treat their employees and vendors with respect and dignity, and have as positive an impact on the world as possible. No one can buy their way into our network - we survey their employees, investigate their pay structure, and evaluate their social impact in-house before being accepted into our network.

When you take a job with an ERC Certified Employer, you can rest assured that they have been vetted independently, and that we have determined that they have an exceptional commitment to their employees.

We want to see you succeed as much as you do.


What makes an employer ethical?

Admittedly, ethics is a complex subject that even Aristotle, Plato, and Socrates couldn’t agree on - so we certainly aren’t going to pretend to be the foremost experts on the subject. That said, we believe that every employer has an obligation to those they employ to treat them with fairness, respect, and integrity. We believe in transparency and honesty, fair treatment, respect for employees and their rights, fair compensation, and social responsibility. 

How do We decide who is ethical?

Everyone has different ideas of what makes a company great to work for, and while we can’t account for every single thing we can certainly try to eliminate the possibility that a candidate will work for an employer who doesn’t care about them. We look at everything from company stability, to employee satisfaction, to company pay structure - and beyond. We can never guarantee you’ll love it, but we will certainly do our best to try, because it’s important that the job works for you and your life. 

Why should You trust US?

Trust has to be earned, so before you trust us we just encourage you to give us a try. We are a company of candidate advocates who believe finding good talent for a company is just as important as finding a good company for a person. Additionally, no one can buy their way into a good assessment - ever (that would be against our entire reason for existence!).

While we do our best to make sure everyone is placed somewhere they’ll love, don’t blindly take our word for it! As much as we try to screen out companies who don’t fit our criteria, we aren’t all-knowing. So do your research, check online, ask good questions in the interview process (we can help you with this!), and trust your gut if you feel something is off.

Does your service cost anything?

Absolutely not! Ethical Recruiting Company services are 100% free to the candidate. You never need to worry that we will send you a random bill, whether we place you somewhere or not.
