The quality of talent has been outstanding, and we’ve been able to achieve payroll cost savings while bringing great professionals onto our team. We're very happy with the consultation and attention they've provided us."
“We needed to scale a new team quickly - with top talent. Lupa helped us build a great process, delivered great candidates quickly, and had impeccable service”
“With Lupa, we rebuilt our entire tech team in less than a month. We’re spending half as much on talent. Ten out of ten”
“We scaled our first tech team at record speed with Lupa. We couldn’t be happier with the service and the candidates we were sent.”

“Lupa has become more than just a provider; it’s a true ally for Pirani in recruitment processes. The team is always available to support and deliver the best service. Additionally, I believe they offer highly competitive rates and service within the market.”
"Highly professional, patient with our changes, and always maintaining clear communication with candidates. We look forward to continuing to work with you on all our future roles."
“Lupa has been an exceptional partner this year, deeply committed to understanding our unique needs and staying flexible to support us. We're excited to continue our collaboration into 2025.”
"What I love about Lupa 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 7 roles.”
"We hired 2 of our key initial developers with Lupa. The consultation was very helpful, the candidates were great and the process has been super fluid. We're already planning to do our next batch of hiring with Lupa. 5 stars."
"Working with Lupa for LatAm hiring has been fantastic. They found us a highly skilled candidate at a better rate than our previous staffing company. The fit is perfect, and we’re excited to collaborate on more roles."
"We compared Lupa with another LatAm headhunter we found through Google, and Lupa delivered a far superior experience. Their consultative approach stood out, and the quality of their candidates was superior. I've hired through Lupa for both of my companies and look forward to building more of my LatAm team with their support."
“We’ve worked with Lupa on multiple roles, and they’ve delivered time and again. From sourcing an incredible Senior FullStack Developer to supporting our broader hiring needs, their team has been proactive, kind, and incredibly easy to work with. It really feels like we’ve gained a trusted partner in hiring.”
Working with Lupa was a great experience. We struggled to find software engineers with a specific skill set in the US, but Lupa helped us refine the role and articulate our needs. Their strategic approach made all the difference in finding the right person. Highly recommend!
Lupa goes beyond typical headhunters. They helped me craft the role, refine the interview process, and even navigate international payroll. I felt truly supported—and I’m thrilled with the person I hired. What stood out most was their responsiveness and the thoughtful, consultative approach they brought.
