Success stories from our clients

Dozens of companies are building outstanding teams in Chile, the Lupa Way. Meet them:

"What I love about Lupa Hire is their approach to sharing small, carefully selected batches of candidates. They focus on sending only the three most qualified individuals, which has already helped us successfully fill 20+ roles.”

Daniel Ruiz
CPTO
Fuse Finance

"Talking about Lupa Hire, I would say: these are the people you want to work with. They understand what consultancies are like. They understand that they could work for a month on a req, only to have it pulled because a client contract didn’t go through. You understand our business model, and that is invaluable."

Andrea Boccia
Talent Acquisition Lead
Velir + Brooklyn Data

"We came to Lupa Hire with a need to hire key tech and AI positions in Latin America. Our target when working with them was to find the best of the best in the region and they delivered. Their approach goes beyond what you'd expect from a headhunter with an incredible focus on match quality."

Leo Diaz
Chief Operations Officer
Quqo

"Before Lupa Hire, we struggled to find a vendor who could match both the volume and the quality we needed to build out our senior development team in Mexico. Lupa gave us real visibility into the pipeline and consistently sent us candidates who actually fit, not just resumes, but people who understood product engineering. It's made a real difference in how fast we've been able to grow the team."
