The American Institute of Balance: Embedded RPO Behind a Rapid Multi-State Expansion
The American Institute of Balance (AIB) was scaling quickly across the country but had no internal recruiting function to keep pace. As a search fund–backed business in the middle of rapid expansion, it needed to hire consistently and fast across a growing set of locations — without the time to stand up a talent team from scratch.
AIB engaged District Partners as its Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) partner, and we took over the recruiting function end to end — sourcing and candidate outreach, job board and posting management, interview coordination, and offer letters — layering our own recruiting technology on top of the business. Rather than running searches from the outside, the team redesigned the hiring process and became a true extension of AIB, embedded in day-to-day operations.
In under a year, District Partners placed 36 hires across 27 local markets in 8 states — spanning Florida, Texas, Louisiana, Delaware, Tennessee, Ohio, South Carolina, and Arizona — keeping hiring ahead of the company's expansion at every step. The partnership remains in place today, with District Partners still embedded as a core part of AIB's recruiting engine.
The District Partners team came in and made an immediate impact, helping our business keep up with our growth. They quickly became an extension of us and helped drive our expansion — and they remain ingrained in the business today, a team we lean on heavily.
