Certified MBE Staffing Agency | Arete Technologies

Arete Technologies: Your Certified MBE Staffing Agency Partner

In today’s competitive business environment, organizations have realized that diversity is more than a compliance requirement — it’s a competitive advantage. Partnering with a certified Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) staffing agency is not just about meeting quotas or checking a box. It’s about building stronger, more innovative teams and contributing to meaningful change in the workforce.

At Arete Technologies, we take pride in being a certified MBE staffing agency, but what truly drives us is the value we deliver to our clients every single day. We are passionate about helping companies find exceptional talent while promoting

diversity and inclusion in a way that genuinely makes a difference.

What Being a Certified MBE Means to Us

Certification as an MBE isn’t a mere formality. It represents a commitment, an acknowledgment that our business is minority-owned and operated and that we meet stringent standards set by recognized certifying bodies. This certification is earned through a rigorous evaluation process, including ownership verification, operational structure review, and financial accountability checks.

For our clients, this certification means they are partnering with an organization that understands diversity not as an external requirement but as an internal principle. It’s woven into the fabric of who we are.

We like to think of our certification as a door-opener — but what matters most is how we open doors for others. Whether it’s providing opportunities for underrepresented talent or helping clients achieve their inclusion goals, our purpose goes beyond a certificate on the wall.

Why Work with a Certified MBE Staffing Agency?

You might ask, “What real difference does an certified MBE staffing agency make?” Here’s why it matters:

• Access to Untapped Talent PoolsWe go beyond the obvious sourcing methods to connect with candidates who might otherwise be overlooked by traditional staffing channels. This approach leads to more diverse, highly skilled professionals who bring new ideas and perspectives to your team.
• Alignment with Corporate Diversity GoalsIf your organization has diversity and inclusion initiatives — and most forward-thinking companies do — working with an MBE-certified agency makes it easier to meet those objectives without additional complexity.
• Proven Business ValueResearch consistently shows that diverse teams outperform homogeneous teams when it comes to innovation, creativity, and decision-making. Partnering with us helps you build those teams.
• Community and Economic ImpactSupporting an MBE business means you’re contributing to the economic growth of minority communities. It’s not just good business — it’s good citizenship.

When you partner with Arete Technologies, you’re choosing a staffing agency that blends quality hiring practices with a strong commitment to diversity — and that combination creates long-term value for your organization.

What We Do and How We Do It

At Arete Technologies, we offer staffing solutions across a wide range of roles and industries. Our expertise covers:

• Light Industrial and Heavy Industrial Roles: Skilled and semi-skilled labor, machine operators, warehouse associates, and more.
• IT Staffing: Software developers, system analysts, project managers, and technical support professionals.
• Professional Services: Engineering, finance, HR, marketing, and procurement specialists.
• Administrative Support: Clerical, customer service, and office management roles.

Our approach goes beyond simply filling positions. We take the time to understand your business, your culture, and your long-term goals. We don’t just look for skills on paper — we match candidates who fit seamlessly into your work environment.

One recent example stands out: A manufacturing client had struggled for months to find a technician with specialized experience. Within days of partnering with us, we identified not only the right candidate but someone who eventually became a team leader. Success stories like this are what make our work rewarding.

Our Approach: Simple, Effective, and Personal

We believe that great staffing solutions start with strong relationships. Our process is built around four core steps:

1. Discovery and Consultation

We begin by listening. What are your specific needs? What does success look like for you? Understanding your culture, workflows, and goals is the foundation of our approach.

2. Targeted Sourcing and Screening

We tap into our extensive network and advanced sourcing tools to identify candidates who not only meet the job requirements but also align with your company values.

3. Comprehensive Evaluation

Every candidate undergoes a rigorous screening process, including background checks, skill assessments, and reference verification. We handle the compliance and paperwork, so you can focus on your core business.

4. Ongoing Support and Follow-Up

Our job doesn’t end when a placement is made. We maintain regular communication to ensure both you and the candidate are satisfied. We believe in partnerships, not transactions.

This personalized and hands-on approach is what sets Arete Technologies apart from larger, less agile firms.

Why Our Clients Stick with Us

We may not be the biggest name in staffing, but our clients consistently tell us that our responsiveness, attention to detail, and commitment to quality keep them coming back.

One client recently shared, “What we love about Arete is that when we have an urgent need, they don’t just move fast — they move smart. Every candidate they present is well-screened and ready to contribute.”

That level of trust doesn’t happen overnight. It’s built through consistent performance, clear communication, and a genuine investment in our clients’ success.

Diversity Is More Than a Buzzword

At Arete Technologies, diversity isn’t a trend or a checkbox. It’s a value we live by every day. Our own team reflects a mix of backgrounds, cultures, and perspectives, which makes us better at what we do.

We also recognize that true inclusion sometimes means going beyond standard practices. We actively work to remove barriers for candidates, whether that means connecting them with additional training resources or helping them navigate challenges like limited access to professional networks.

For us, being an certified MBE staffing agency is not just a business designation — it’s a mission to create opportunities and drive meaningful change.
