Action Placements LLC

Action Placements LLC is a boutique staffing firm built for entrepreneur-led companies that need strategic, full-time hires without the overhead, delays, or volume thresholds of legacy recruiting firms. Founded by former top-performing corporate recruiter Tim Dagit, the agency focuses on direct-hire placements across construction, manufacturing, and IT, helping owners and leadership teams find “action-hero” employees who can contribute from day one. Action Placements embraces the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) and aligns each search to a client’s core values, accountability chart, and the seat’s five mission-critical roles to ensure the right people are placed in the right seats. Its Lights, Camera, Action methodology begins by shining a light on the client’s business and culture, then “rolls camera” by leveraging sourcing expertise and a proprietary AI sorting algorithm to surface only rigorously qualified, culture-aligned candidates, and culminates in concise flash summaries designed to be reviewed in under three minutes so decision makers can act quickly. The firm delivers transparent, SMB-friendly pricing with a flat $7,500 fee per hire ($2,500 to initiate, $5,000 after the first 30 days of employment) and backs every placement with a no-cost backfill if things don’t work out after 30 days. Action Placements exclusively recruits for full-time, direct-hire roles—explicitly not hourly labor, contractors, or C-suite positions—yet routinely fills pivotal management and operational seats that drive growth, such as site leadership and superintendent roles, reflected in client successes across corridors like New York to Philadelphia. Candidates value the firm’s curated client base, interview coaching, and immediate scheduling, while employers appreciate a high-touch partnership that compresses time-to-hire and elevates fit. With a nimble team, rigorous process, and EOS-driven discipline, Action Placements helps entrepreneurial businesses hire confidently and scale with the right talent.
