We always begin and end our presentations with a thank you whether theyâre to customers or at conferences.
Another big part of the S3 culture is acknowledging our veterans. Are there any veterans in the audience today? Please stand so we can thank you for your service.

Introduce our âPawfice Assistantsâ as part of S3 and its culture.
Capturing marginalized candidate pools is notoriously difficult because of the perceived barriers placed in the way, whether itâs veterans, or disadvantaged or returning citizens.
We are inclusive. Itâs another large part of our culture. Itâs why we display the LGBTQ Pride Flag in our corporate headquarters.
Itâs how we have achieved the impressive feat of growing our staff to include 50% military veteran, military spouse, and military dependent status.
Use this opportunity to ask Marvin to stand and be acknowledged as one of our veteran employees. Marvin joined the US Airforce right out of high school and had a full career there before retiring and joining S3 as one of our first sourcers 15 years ago. He has moved through the ranks of S3 and today is our Director of Talent Acquisitions and Military Liaison. Thank you Marvin!
We are a company that first and foremost builds relationships before we do anything else. It is a large part of our culture.
How we engage talent is predicated on relationships.

We build and maintain strong relationships with customers because it benefits them and our consultants
If four suppliers presented candidates for one position, because of our relationship with our customer, we may get our candidate the first look. Our customers trust us.
In our conference rooms we have empty chairs designated for our Customers and Consultants. At any point in our discussions we can pause and ask ourselves what our Customers and Consultants might think of our decisions. Their presence truly impacts our decisions.

These four pillars are how we make our decisions, how we choose our customers, how we care for our consultants, and how we operate as a company.
Among many other benefits, our four pillars have resulted in a higher number of W2 employees among our consultants because they are part of the S3 family before all.
While these pillars havenât changed in the 28 years weâve been in business, new technologies such as Bullhorn have allowed us to enhance our relationships with our Customers and Consultants. They have improved our ability to deliver on these four objectives.

Re: stay true to your values: We put our money where our mouth is.
New technology is great if itâs fully incorporated into your total talent acquisition program - But it shouldnât replace the idealogies that differentiate your company
Bullhorn creates capacity for recruiters to be on the phone with candidates; Bullhorn allows S3 recruiters to be more human, NOT less human.

Itâs truly gratifying to create opportunities for our team and fill roles and needs with current team members.
Our senior leadership ensures that each individual at S3 has the opportunity to learn, grow, and advance.
We hire based on talent rather than experience on paper. We hire and promote solely on merit. Hire character â skills can be learned.
This is virtually unheard of in our industry.
And, when you hire based on talent, you naturally get a very diverse workforce. Of S3âs 24 member leadership team, 14 are women, 7 are African American, and 1 is Asian.
