SAN JOSE, California, June 10, 2026 – Pierpoint International announced that Everest Group recognized the company as a Major Contender in the Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) Services PEAK Matrix® Assessment 2025 – Global.
The recognition reflects Pierpoint’s continued presence in a global RPO market where employers increasingly expect recruitment partners to contribute beyond hiring execution.
“Organizations are asking more sophisticated questions about talent,” said Alyssa Terrizzano, Co-Founder and CEO of Pierpoint International. “They want to understand where skills are available, how requirements are changing, and which recruitment investments will have the greatest business impact. Our responsibility is to bring that perspective into the work while continuing to deliver the recruiting capacity clients depend on.”
The global RPO market remained subdued during 2024 as economic uncertainty continued to affect enterprise hiring. Everest Group’s public report summary notes that providers responded with more tailored services and greater investment in skills-based recruitment and generative AI. Consulting and value-added services also became more important as employers sought support with workforce planning, reskilling, skills advisory, and early-career hiring.
The Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) Services PEAK Matrix® Assessment 2025 – Global evaluated 31 providers across all industries and geographies. Its scope included more than 6,700 multi-process RPO engagements as of 2024.
The assessment examined provider capabilities across market adoption, portfolio mix, value delivered, service scope, innovation and investment, delivery footprint, and vision and strategy. Everest Group positioned providers within the PEAK Matrix® framework as Leaders, Major Contenders, or Aspirants.
Pierpoint combines global recruiting delivery with technology, workforce intelligence, and talent advisory capabilities. Its solutions include end-to-end RPO, partial and hybrid RPO, project RPO, high-volume hiring, recruiter-on-demand services, executive search, contingent workforce support, and talent advisory.
The company works with clients to align recruiting resources with workforce priorities, whether they need ongoing enterprise support, access to specialized recruiting expertise, or additional capacity for a defined hiring initiative.
“Recruitment partners need to understand the business decisions behind the requisitions,” Terrizzano added. “That context helps teams determine where to focus, which capabilities are needed, and how to adjust when workforce priorities change.”
Pierpoint serves organizations across North America, Latin America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia Pacific, including employers in consumer goods and retail, healthcare, life sciences and pharmaceuticals, technology, manufacturing, professional services, restaurants, and hospitality.
