 across North America provides Modis the ability to support IT staffing needs in all client locations across the country. By leveraging our parent and sister company locations, Modis is further provided with a local presence in more than 1,100 North American locations and 60 countries worldwide. As a result, our geographic coverage to support our client's dispersed staffing needs is second to none in the industry. Our sophisticated pipeline recruiting model helps our local recruiting teams take a proactive approach to recruiting and allows us to efficiently provide clients with high-quality candidates. With pipeline recruiting, each Modis office chooses the most sought-after IT or engineering skillsets within their region by reviewing their branch placements over the past year, as well as local market data. Each recruiter then becomes a specialist of a small group of those "hot" skillsets. They are tasked with having 10-15 available and pre-screened consultants within those specific skillsets at all times. Collectively, each branch office then has a team of recruiters who are experts in each of the major IT or engineering skillsets in their local market. At any moment in time, each branch has a comprehensive list of ready-to-work candidates across all skillsets within that market. Modis ensures that we are on the forefront of technological and functional advances when it comes to recruiting and screening talent. We pilot HireVue for our clients operating in many locations to facilitate interviews and communication via video, mobile and social media applications. In addition, we employ block interviews to enable our clients to efficiently interview multiple pre-screened candidates in the most time-effective manner possible. Further, Modis understands the importance of connecting top IT and engineering talent, including foreign-born workers, with our clients. We have developed our own Modis Immigration Sponsorship Program with this in mind, helping qualified consultants from all over the world work with our clients.
