Loop, an SCI Company is a strategic recruiting and human resource advisory firm offering contract and permanent placement resources as well as systems consulting services to clients across varied markets and industries. The company is the product of a merger between Loop Recruiting, founded in Augusta, GA in 2015, and SCI Workforce Solutions, founded in Athens, GA in 2016. In their early years, Loop and SCI each pursued distinct business plans and abided by different operating principles, but maintained similar growth trajectories, strategic objectives, and values.
In 2020, Loop Recruiting opened an office in Spartanburg, SC and SCI added another location in Atlanta, GA in 2021. News of each firm's expanding geographic footprints and diverse suite of services reached the respective company partners, and dialogue regarding a potential transaction began in 2023, culminating in the 2024 merger. Loop and SCI undertook the move with several strategic objectives in mind, including but not limited to: improvement of existing capabilities; optimization of complementary services; combined customer portfolios and customer success initiatives; and the institution of a broader financial platform for sustained growth.
Building off decades of combined expertise, Loop now identifies three core dimensions to its ability to create value for customers:
- An emphasis on understanding client cultures and specific needs ensures precise matches at team, department, and corporate levels, going beyond conventional candidate placement.
- The flexibility and skill to serve clients of all sizes and across all industries, from emerging enterprises to established corporations.
- A unique blend of solutions, including direct hire recruiting, high-volume staffing, IT consulting, and Executive Search.
