For the tenth straight year, Forbes is partnering with market research firm Statista to produce our rankings of the top recruiting firms in the United States, segmented into three categories: America’s Best Executive Recruiting Firms, America’s Best Professional Recruiting Firms and America’s Best Temp Staffing Firms. These lists are meant to be a go-to resource for both hiring managers and job seekers. But we can’t produce this guide without hearing from you.
If you are a recruiter (in-house or external), a hiring manager or someone who has worked with a recruiting firm to find a position, please take our survey and tell us about your experiences. Your informed input will help us identify and rank the recruiting firms that have consistently served their clients well.

The survey takes just a few minutes to complete, is 100% anonymous and will be open until January 16, 2026. The results of the survey and our final rankings will be published in May 2026.
