SRG: Local Expertise Backed by a Global Legacy
Adam Klug, Managing Director at Specialized Recruiting Group, leads the SE Michigan professional recruiting division of Express Employment Professionals, a globally recognized staffing leader with over 850 offices in the U.S., Canada, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand. While EEP boasts more than 40 years of experience and consistent recognition as one of the top staffing companies in the U.S., SRG brings a unique advantage: a local, personal touch.
With a focus on construction, civil engineering and accounting, SRG specializes in finding talent for niche roles like foremen, project managers and finance professionals. Lynn and Rod, owners of the Livonia and Taylor offices for 15 years, exemplify SRG’s philosophy of combining the resources of a global corporation with a deep understanding of local industries and community needs.
“Recruitment is about more than just filling a role,” Klug explains. “We invest time upfront to consult with clients, understand their team culture and deter mine what will add value structurally and culturally to their organization.”
SRG’s results speak for themselves. With a retention rate of 75–80%, well above the industry average. Their process goes beyond just finding candidates— it’s about creating long-term matches. The SRG team consults with clients through an eight-step process before interviews even begin, offering advice on multi-phase interview structures, market compensation insights and the nuances of identifying the right cultural fit.
One standout example of SRG’s success involved a client searching for a project engineer. Despite a candidate’s modest resume, SRG saw potential and guided them through the process. The candidate was ultimately hired, contributing to major projects and celebrating their one-year anniversary with glowing recognition from their employer.
“Our team focuses on quality over quantity,” said Klug. “We don’t just look at recent job history—we dig into a candidate’s entire background to understand their journey and achievements.”
SRG doesn’t stop at hiring. They follow up with clients and candidates 30, 60 and 90 days post-placement to ensure satisfaction. They also provide training and consulting to employers, helping them develop a clear vision of what the ideal candidate looks like and how to structure interviews effectively.
As SRG continues to grow, they remain dedicated to connecting local talent with meaningful opportunities while fostering relationships built on trust and mutual success.
