SAN JOSE, California, July 9, 2026 – Pierpoint International, a global provider of Recruitment Process Outsourcing and talent acquisition solutions, announced that Everest Group has recognized the company as a Major Contender in the Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) Services PEAK Matrix® Assessment 2026 – Global, US, UK, and India.
Pierpoint was positioned as a Major Contender in both the Global and US assessments.
“Recognition in both the Global and US assessments reflects our team’s ability to support organizations across markets while remaining responsive to their specific business and hiring needs,” said Alyssa Terrizzano, Co-Founder and CEO of Pierpoint International. “Our clients are navigating changing hiring demand, persistent skill gaps, and greater expectations for measurable outcomes. We remain focused on providing flexible recruitment solutions supported by experienced teams, technology, and workforce intelligence.”
Everest Group’s 2026 assessment examines the Recruitment Process Outsourcing provider landscape as organizations reconsider their recruitment strategies following a prolonged market slowdown. According to the report abstract, enterprises continue to face economic uncertainty, budget pressures, and skill shortages while seeking recruitment models that can adjust to changing business requirements.
The report also examines how RPO providers are responding through modular and project-based delivery models, recruiter-on-demand offerings, expanded advisory capabilities, and technologies including generative AI, agentic AI, automation, analytics, and talent intelligence.
The Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) Services PEAK Matrix® Assessment 2026 – Global, US, UK, and India covers 57 providers. Its scope includes market trends, the provider landscape, provider capabilities, relative positions within the PEAK Matrix® framework, and considerations for enterprise buyers.
The PEAK Matrix® is a comparative assessment rather than a cumulative ranking or rating. Everest Group evaluates providers using measures of market impact and vision and capability. The designation reflects Pierpoint’s position within the Major Contender category in the Global and US assessments.
“Companies need recruiting support that can adapt as priorities, hiring volumes, and labor markets change,” Terrizzano added. “Our approach gives clients access to the recruiting expertise and delivery capacity they need while working within their existing teams, processes, and technology environments.”
