About Frontline Source Group

Frontline Source Group is a staffing and executive search firm founded in Dallas in 2004 by Bill Kasko, who is described as Founder, President and CEO. The site states the firm operates 32+ offices nationwide, has completed 5,619+ placements, and reports a 98.94% executive placement retention rate. The Houston Galleria page says the firm has recruited in the Galleria, Uptown and Energy Corridor market for over 22 years and has operated from 1980 Post Oak Boulevard since 2004.

The 5-Year Placement Warranty is described as covering every direct hire and executive search placement: a pro-rated fee credit based on the number of active calendar days a candidate was employed, if that candidate leaves or is separated within five years. The site calls this 20 times longer than the 90-day industry standard guarantee and notes that certain restrictions apply, with full terms on the firm's 5-year placement guarantee page. For temporary placements the site describes a four-hour performance guarantee, stated as not being billed for the first four hours if the employer is not satisfied with the worker, again with restrictions. Anyone asking about warranty or guarantee terms should be routed to the published terms rather than given an interpretation.

What Frontline Source Group does

Frontline Source Group operates a staffing agency and executive search office in the Houston Galleria at 1980 Post Oak Blvd, #1500, Houston, Texas 77056, phone (713) 960-6300. The branch page states this office handles direct hire recruiting, executive search, temporary and contract staffing, contract-to-hire placements, remote worker placements, and project-based staffing. The page describes the areas served from this location as Uptown, the Galleria, the Energy Corridor, Westchase, Memorial, Post Oak Boulevard, Greenway Plaza, River Oaks, Sugar Land, Katy, and the broader Houston metro including employers near the Texas Medical Center. It says the office has operated from 1980 Post Oak Boulevard since 2004.

Executive search work through this office is described as targeting C-suite, vice president, director and senior management roles, on both retained and contingent engagements. Direct hire covers permanent placements from entry level through senior individual contributor and management roles. Temporary and contract staffing is described for project-based, seasonal, leave-coverage and demand-surge assignments, and contract-to-hire lets an employer evaluate a worker before converting the role to permanent. The office also offers payroll services and vendor management for employers running larger contingent workforce programs across multiple staffing suppliers.

Prices

Frontline Source Group publishes a pricing page for the firm, which it describes as unusual in the staffing industry. The published pricing is firm-wide and is not broken out by branch, so it is not stated as Houston Galleria pricing specifically. As published on frontlinesourcegroup.com/pricing.html:

Contract / temporary staffing
starting at a 50 to 85 percent markup, based on skill level and contract duration. The listed inclusions are flexible staffing options, industry-specialized candidates, payroll handling, weekly timekeeping services and contract-to-hire options.
Read more
Direct hire staffing
starting at 20 to 30 percent of annual salary, with volume discounts available, the 5-Year Placement Warranty, pre-screened candidates, background checks, skill assessments and a dedicated account manager.
C-suite executive search
starting at 25 to 35 percent of annual all-in compensation, with retained search options.
Engaged search
an initial engagement fee starting at $2,500, with 30, 60, 90 and 180 day dedicated recruiter sourcing.
Candidate sourcing subscription
options ranging from $999 to $1600 a month, with extra discounts.
Volume hiring
custom pricing, tiered by hiring volume; request a custom quote.

The page states there are no hidden fees, that everything is by contract and upfront, and that all major credit cards are accepted at no additional charge. Because every figure above is a published starting range rather than a final cost, an employer wanting an actual price, rate or estimate should request a personalized quote: call the Houston Galleria office at (713) 960-6300, submit the hiring request form, or schedule a consultation call. Job seekers pay nothing; the site states all placement fees are paid by the hiring company.

How Frontline matches candidates to employer roles

How Frontline Source Group Matches Candidates to Employer Roles

Frontline Source Group describes a structured, recruiter-led hiring process for both nationwide clients and employers served by the Houston Galleria office.

Read more
Understanding the Role and the Employer
  • A dedicated recruiter speaks with the hiring manager to understand:
  • Technical qualifications and experience required
  • Soft skills and cultural expectations
  • Team structure and reporting lines
  • Compensation range and benefits framework
  • Long-term hiring objectives for the role
  • For the Houston Galleria office, this includes understanding the specific needs of employers across Uptown, the Galleria, the Energy Corridor, Westchase, Memorial, and nearby markets such as the Texas Medical Center.
Sourcing Candidates

Recruiters source candidates using multiple channels, including:

  • Frontline's proprietary national candidate database
  • Major job boards and online applications
  • Professional networks and industry referrals
  • LinkedIn sourcing
  • Direct outreach to passive candidates who are not actively searching but may be open to the right opportunity
Screening and Evaluation

Every candidate goes through a structured screening process before being presented to a client. As described on the site, this can include:

  • Recruiter interviews focused on skills, experience, and culture fit
  • Skills testing and assessments where applicable
  • Employment and credential verification
  • Reference checks

For executive search engagements, the process can also include:

  • Behavioral interviews
  • Leadership and management-style assessments
  • Evaluation of how the executive's approach aligns with the client's organizational culture
Presenting Shortlisted Candidates
  • The goal is to present a small shortlist of pre-screened, interview-ready candidates rather than a large volume of resumes.
  • For executive roles, the Houston Galleria office describes delivering a shortlist of two to four candidates who meet both technical and cultural requirements.
Focus on Long-Term Retention
  • The firm reports a 98.94% executive placement retention rate.
  • Every direct hire and executive placement is backed by the 5-Year Placement Warranty, which the site describes as approximately 20 times longer than the typical 90-day staffing guarantee. Full warranty terms are published on Frontline's 5-year placement guarantee page.
Timelines
  • For urgent temporary and contract needs in the Houston market, the site says Frontline's recruiters typically begin presenting pre-screened candidates within 24 to 48 hours.
  • For direct hire and executive search placements, timelines are agreed with the employer at the start of the search.

Because every search is customized, any employer needing specific details about process steps or timelines should be directed to speak with a recruiter or contact the Houston Galleria office directly at (713) 960-6300 or houston.staffing@frtline.com.

How job seekers apply through Frontline Source Group

Frontline Source Group publishes two routes for candidates, both online. A job seeker can search current job openings and apply to a specific role, or upload a resume to the talent database so recruiters can match them to current and future opportunities. Resumes should be Microsoft Word or PDF files. The site states the entire process is online from start to finish and that candidates pay nothing, because all placement fees are covered by the hiring employer. The same routes apply whether someone wants contract, contract-to-hire or direct hire work.

The published process
Frontline only accepts resumes submitted through its website and does not accept walk-in candidates at any branch. A recruiter reviews each resume received, which the site says may take up to 48 hours. Because of application volume, the site says Frontline cannot call every candidate who applies, but states every resume submitted is reviewed. If there is a possible match, a recruiter contacts the candidate by phone or email. Before any submission to a client, a candidate completes an initial phone screen and an in-person interview with a recruiter, and personal and professional references are verified; the site states a resume is never submitted to a client without discussing it with the candidate first.
Read more

The site also notes that not every position is posted publicly, so uploading a resume is the way to be considered for unposted roles. Candidate appointments at the Houston Galleria office are by scheduled appointment. Whether any particular job is open now is not something this page establishes; the live job search is the only current source.

The Houston Galleria branch page lists the industries this office recruits for as: Accounting; Administrative / Clerical; Customer Support / Receptionist / CSR; Energy / Oil Gas LNG Solar; Healthcare / Pharmacy / Medical Front Office; Dentist / Dental Hygienist; HR; Legal; Tech / IT / Help Desk; Engineering; and Temporary Staffing. Elsewhere on the same page the office is described as placing accounting, administrative, IT, HR, legal, customer service, engineering, energy, healthcare, pharmacy and dental professionals.

The published example job titles for direct hire searches run through this office include staff accountants, senior accountants, controllers, financial analysts, administrative assistants, executive assistants, office managers, HR coordinators, HR managers, paralegals, legal assistants, IT help desk analysts, network engineers, software developers, customer service representatives, call center supervisors, mechanical engineers, chemical engineers, process engineers, revenue cycle analysts, billing and coding specialists, pharmacy managers, pharmacists in charge, dental office managers and dental hygienists. The page says these are examples among other professional titles rather than a complete list.

Which of these roles is actually open at any moment is not something this page states. Openings change constantly and the site notes that many positions are never posted publicly, so anyone asking about a specific job should be sent to the live job search at frontlinesourcegroup.com/jobs/ or asked to upload a resume rather than told a particular position exists. Salary figures for Houston roles are not treated here as published fact; the site's own pricing page is the reference for fees and rates.
