Our philosophy
People first. Then the right fit.
People
Onico Solutions believes that “World Class” IT staffing begins with the right people. Our methodologies have allowed us to highlight key interpersonal and technical skill sets. We believe that a person has defined character traits that are formed at a very early age. Our success is attributable to employing IT professionals who have the character traits and technical requirements that match our client environments.
The Right Fit
We believe that success is a two-way street. To achieve staffing success, not only do our clients have to like our people, but our people have to like our clients. At Onico we never try to put a “square peg in a round hole.” We feel that to be successful in the workplace you have to enjoy getting up every day to go to work. If you enjoy what you do, success will naturally follow. We employ several proprietary steps to ensure our candidates are the right fit for our clients and vice versa.
MEET OUR FOUNDER
Built on People. Driven by Relationships.
Craig Streicher
Founder, Onico Solutions
In 1999, Craig Streicher founded Onico Solutions with a simple belief: great organizations are built by great people.
From the beginning, Onico was created to take a more relationship-driven approach to IT staffing— one that focused on understanding both sides of the equation: the organization’s technology needs and the professional’s career aspirations.
That philosophy continues to shape Onico today.
Why Onico Was Created
Technology was—and continues to be—one of the most rapidly changing areas of business. Organizations need access to people with the right technical skills, experience, and ability to work within their environments. At the same time, talented IT professionals need more than a job description; they need opportunities that align with their skills, ambitions and careers.
Onico was built around connecting those two needs.
The company’s philosophy is reflected in its longstanding belief that “World Class” IT staffing begins with the right people who embody the right process.
A Relationship-First Philosophy
From its early days, Onico has focused on building relationships rather than simply filling vacancies.
That means taking the time to understand:
- The organization’s technology environment
- The challenges behind the position
- The skills and experience required
- The team’s culture and working environment
- The candidate’s career objectives
- The long-term potential of the relationship
This philosophy has helped shape Onico’s approach to contract staffing, permanent recruitment, executive search and IT resource consulting.
Onico’s goal continues to be helping IT professionals pursue prosperous careers and providing services and networking opportunities that give back to the Canadian technology community.
