Amplified Sourcing

Amplified Sourcing, the staffing brand of LEVERAGEncy, LLC, is a people sourcing company that supports contractors, direct hires, and contract-to-hire needs through a process-driven model designed to amplify results across four areas: Sourcing, Paper, Screens, and Visibility. Through its Sourcing Amplifier, the firm integrates with a national network of 1,000+ vendors and independent recruiters, acting as a single vendor on a client’s shortlist while filtering the mass market to deliver more unique, high-quality candidates, especially for niche “purple squirrel” roles where reach matters most. The Paper Amplifier lets clients leverage known independents without the administrative burden, providing full life-cycle support that includes onboarding, background checks, time reporting, invoicing, payroll, tax withholding and filings, and post-assignment events—effectively functioning as a streamlined payrolling/EOR solution with transparent, processing-fee-based pricing. The Screens Amplifier accelerates evaluation by using delivery-focused screeners who capture structured interviews with playback tools so hiring teams can jump directly to the topics that matter, review asynchronously, and often eliminate an early interview round, reducing scheduling friction and time-to-decision. The Visibility Amplifier brings uncommon transparency by sharing candidate pay rates, markups, and the broader applicant pool so clients can understand market pricing before any final mark is applied and make better-informed tradeoffs. While domain-agnostic by design, Amplified Sourcing most frequently supports technology and professional services talent needs, including custom software development (.NET, Java), project and program management, business analysis, and business intelligence/data warehousing. Clients partner with Amplified Sourcing to augment direct sourcing, widen access to specialized talent, and improve speed and quality without disrupting their internal process—talk to one partner, reach thousands, gain clear market visibility, and hire faster across both permanent recruitment and contract staffing.
