Cielo

Cielo is a recruitment process outsourcing (RPO) company and talent acquisition partner headquartered in Wauwatosa, Wisconsin. For businesses that need to hire better and faster, the company provides dedicated outsourcing support that goes beyond placing job ads. Cielo's teams immerse themselves in a client's brand, culture and goals, then use data-driven processes and purpose-built technology to deliver candidates that fit. The result is faster hiring, lower administrative burden, and a recruiting function that actually scales. The core service is RPO, where Cielo acts as an extension of an in-house talent team, managing the full recruitment cycle. Beyond that, the company offers Contingent Workforce management for organizations that rely on independent contractors, freelancers and SOW-based staff. For teams that want targeted help rather than full outsourcing, TA Optimizers provide modular RPO tools designed to cut repetitive tasks and improve candidate quality without overhauling the entire function. Cielo also consults on TA Strategy and Transformation, HR Technology selection and implementation, Employer Branding, and Diversity, Equity and Inclusion programs. On the technology side, Cielo Source & Engage automates sourcing to surface qualified, available candidates without manual searching. CLO.ai, the company's generative AI platform, accelerates talent acquisition tasks across the hiring workflow. These AI-ready BPO tools sit on top of a human-led delivery model, giving clients both the efficiency of automation and the judgment of experienced recruiters. This combination is what Cielo describes as talent science. The company serves clients across business services, manufacturing, life sciences, healthcare, technology and media, and retail and consumer sectors. Each industry has different pressure points: manufacturing companies face apprenticeship gaps, healthcare organizations deal with chronic staffing shortages, and life sciences firms need specialist hiring at speed. Cielo builds its outsourcing solutions around those specific challenges. Quest Diagnostics has credited the partnership with reducing time-to-fill by 60 percent. Seagate Technology's Head of Talent Acquisition has cited Cielo's investment in the relationship as having a direct impact on business performance. For companies looking to rethink how they find and retain people, Cielo offers a structured path from diagnostic to delivery. Whether the need is full RPO, back office talent operations, or a targeted fix to one part of the hiring process, the team is equipped to scope a solution.
