What is an EV Recruiting Firm?
An EV recruiting firm is a staffing agency that specializes in helping companies in the electric vehicle industry find the talent they need to grow their business. We work with companies to understand their needs, culture, and the skills required for all types of positions including engineers, technicians, sales, and upper management. EPG then sources, screens, and presents qualified candidates with a clean resume and 1-2 page summary notes page detailing the specific info you request.
