## Founder-led recruiting

- Direct communication: clients receive clear updates with fewer layers between the hiring team and the search.
- Follow-through: ASP stays accountable through sourcing, interviews, offer, and placement.

ASP focuses on manufacturing and industrial recruiting across skilled trades, engineering and technical roles, operations and production, maintenance and field service, Safety & EHS and quality, and supply chain and logistics.
