Since opening our doors on February 1, 2012, TorchLight has been honored to be the trusted hiring partner serving leading businesses throughout Maryland, Washington, D.C. and Northern Virginia. Thanks to you, we have accomplished many wonderful milestones over the past five years–all built on the foundation of our passion and mission to help D.C. area employers find and hire the best talent.

Celebrating 5 Years of TorchLight

In honor of our anniversary, we are looking back on all of our past accomplishments. Reflection is perfect for finding inspiration for our next 5 years! TorchLight started in 2012 with 1 employee and had 2 placements hired that first month. Now, in February 2017, we have 10 employees and over 300 contract and permanent placements.

Over the past 5 years, TorchLight has maintained a 97% placement success rate. Also, we have sent more than 101 flowers and 37 boxes of cupcakes and goodies to full-time placements on their first day.

We rank #621 on the Inc. 5000 Fastest-Growing Private Companies in America and are regularly featured in the Washington Business Journal, the Washington Post, Fast Company, Glassdoor, SHRM, LinkedIn, and WTOP. We are also a certified Women’s Business Enterprise and a member of the Alexandria Chamber of Commerce for 2015 and 2016. Not to mention the more than $12,000 in charitable donations made out to the ACLU, Carpenter’s Shelter, American Diabetes Association, Capital Area Food Bank, Wounded Warriors Project, Animal Welfare League of Arlington, and more!
