Why Farla?

We are good at what we do

We have years of senior management experience and have built many successful teams. We don't start a mandate before speaking with the hiring manager to understand what success looks like for them.

Our unique ability to position an open role, allows us to meet with high quality candidates right from the start. We are then able to submit the right profiles to our clients.

We have a reputation for being honest, direct and helpful. We have excellent references.

President and Founder

Lori Dermer

I tripped in to recruiting many years ago due to a strong network and being someone people often rely on as a resource.

I am fortunate to be able to do the work I do, including partnering with interesting businesses and meeting terrific people at every turn. You know how people say 'when you love what you do you won't work a day in your life'? Well, I love what I do but I work every.single day. Is there something I don't know??

I started Farla to solve what I saw as problems in recruiting. Businesses were tired of getting lousy candidates, whether from posting positions or from their recruitment partners. I was coming at recruiting from a different angle and I felt it was time to raise the bar. In doing so, everyone wins.
