What’s the difference between Caméléon RH and a staffing agency?
We focus on quality, not quantity.
A staffing agency can find candidates quickly, often by focusing on volume.
With Caméléon, you get a true talent acquisition partner. We take the time to understand your organization, your culture and your challenges.
Our goal is to help you make the right hiring decision, not just fill a position.
You benefit from proactive talent sourcing, a thorough assessment of skills and cultural fit, and guidance all the way through onboarding.
With Caméléon RH, you don’t just receive résumés. You build a team that reflects who you are, with the right people for the right reasons.

Are there any assignments Caméléon RH turns down?
Temporary staffing isn’t part of our service offering.
Looking to fill a temporary position, like bringing on a receptionist for eight weeks through an external payroll provider?
That’s not something we offer, but we’ll be happy to connect you with trusted partners who can help.
What are the benefits of working with a talent acquisition firm?
Save time, reduce risk and gain peace of mind.
A good recruitment partner brings you three essential things: clarity, speed and peace of mind.
We help define your needs to identify the right candidate profile. Our proactive search and proven methodology help move the process forward faster. And we guide you through to the final decision, so you can hire with confidence.
See for yourself what a difference it makes on our recruitment page.
In short, you save time and reduce the risk of a bad hire, leaving you free to focus on what matters most: growing your organization.
In-house recruitment or working with Caméléon RH: how do you know what’s right for you?
The value we bring depends on your needs.
If you only occasionally recruit and your HR team has the time, tools and expertise to handle it, and things are working well, managing recruitment in-house may be the right fit for you.
But some situations change the equation: time is limited, a role is strategic or difficult to fill, or qualified candidates are hard to find. You may also want to speed up the process while reducing the risk of a bad hire. That’s where we bring real added value, working alongside your existing team.

Yes, but our recruitment efforts go far beyond that.
Every engagement includes proactive sourcing to identify the best available talent, whether candidates are actively looking for a job or not.
Does Caméléon know where to find unicorns?
Unicorns? Rarely. Exceptional talent? Absolutely.
We help you distinguish between must-haves and nice-to-haves.
Then, we identify candidates with the potential, skills and motivation to succeed.
Rather than looking for the perfect candidate on paper, we find the right person for your organization.
How many résumés will we send you per position?
A shortlist of candidates who fit your needs, not a pile of résumés to sort through.
At Caméléon, we believe you have much better things to do with your time than sift through 20 or 30 résumés.
We focus on quality, not quantity.
We make your job easier by presenting only candidates who match the criteria we’ve defined together and fit your company culture.

When does the project start after we contact you?
We’re ready to get started whenever you are.
In most cases, we can launch your recruitment project within 48 hours of signing the contract.
We know you have a lot at stake. Lost revenue from an unfilled position, teams stretched too thin, the risk of missing out on a great opportunity…
