DENVER — MAY 1, 2013 — ColoradoBiz Magazine ranks Experience Factor, a full-service recruitment firm, as one of Colorado’s Top 100 Woman‐Owned Businesses in 2013. Experience Factor connects professionals with Colorado companies in a range of key industries including healthcare, telecommunications, commercial real estate, food and beverage and financial services. ColoradoBiz is a leading monthly publication dedicated to in‐depth coverage of the Colorado business community.

Stephanie Klein, President and Owner of Experience Factor, successfully managed her company through the bleak years of the recession and has been capitalizing on the brighter employment landscape as the economy recovers. “Everybody in business has had to be flexible to be successful and maintain the ability to shift gears and move where new opportunities present themselves,” says Klein.  Her advice to any executive is “don’t get too wedded to your business plan in the face of change.”

Klein’s company, which she founded in 2003, gained attention for its innovative work recruiting and placing talented members of the Baby Boomer generation.  In 2010, she recognized the need to expand the company’s reach and set out to establish the company as a talent pool representing experienced professionals regardless of age. The company’s name changed from The Boomer Group to Experience Factor. Since its inception, the firm has offered a full suite of employment services to meet a range of business requirements that includes recruiting for temporary, contract-to-hire and direct hire positions; talent acquisition expertise and payrolling.

Klein leads a staff with 50 years of combined recruiting and business consulting expertise. Additionally, she chairs the Denver Workforce Investment Board, is a regular columnist for the Denver Business Journal, and is a frequently sought source for trends and issues related to recruitment and staffing matters in Colorado. She is past president of the board of directors of the Colorado Human Resource Association and a member of the Colorado Society of Human Resource Management.

Klein attributes her company’s success to her experienced team and their highly personal approach. “We take the time to get to know every aspect of our client’s business objectives, culture and market competition. We spend just as much time getting to know the candidates we place: their skills, interests and professional goals,” she said. “Through our careful, tested selection process, combined with the instinct and sound judgment that only comes with experience, we make placements that fit and last.  For us, that IS the X Factor.”  Eighty-six percent of the professionals Experience Factor has placed in the past five years remain with the same companies. Experience Factor may be reached at 303.300.6976.
