Coming Soon


The Focus Group is a management consulting and executive recruiting firm dedicated to providing enhanced recruiting capabilities for Georgia Employers’ Association (GEA) members. Leveraging access to multiple online job boards with thousands of candidate résumés, along with an extensive internal database, The Focus Group ensures quick referrals of candidates who meet precise position specifications. Their relationship with GEA enables them to offer competitive fee structures and a level of competency and trust that may be challenging to find elsewhere.

Our Services

The Focus Group offers professional recruiting services tailored to organizations that:

  • Lack the time for intensive recruiting efforts required to attract quality talent.
  • Find conventional recruiting methods ineffective.
  • Require specialized or high-level position candidates.
  • Prefer not to directly contact organizations where potential candidates are employed.
  • Need a confidential recruiting process.

The Focus Group offers recruiting services on a contingency basis — meaning GEA members only pay a fee if a candidate is successfully hired.

The standard fee is 20% of the employee’s first-year salary, with potential discounts for multiple position searches.
