The success is based heavily on the production of the team, not just the individual, creating a culture based on core values of Communication, Ethics, Innovation, Positive-Energy and Delivery.
Averity is broken down into 3 highly specialized teams that focus on 3 important areas within the very fast paced NYC tech market. We have teams of recruiters that focus on DevOps / Infrastructure, Data Science/Data Engineering, and Opensource / Web Development. We all work together as one team to provide our clients and our clients a level of world class service that goes far above and beyond your expectations.
We understand the shortage of high quality talent within the Information Technology and Engineering sectors. As these industries continue to grow, the demand for a sophisticated web presence, monetization of data through business intelligence and a realizable return on online advertising will continue to increase. The battle for talented IT specialists and engineers remains. Averity will aim to fill a void left by other permanent placement and contract-staffing agencies by matching specifically skilled workers with clients, saving businesses time and money, while providing for its employees with honesty and honor.
