In today’s global economic climate, many companies have been forced to shut down. Struggling with cash flow issues, funding shortages, declining client demand, and hiring freezes are just some reasons that many organizations may face. However, amid this turbulent storm, GetLinks continues to stand strong.

GetLinks’ve been in the game for nearly a decade. We’ve weathered funding droughts, hiring freezes, pandemics, and multiple economic downturns. But how did we survive when others had to exit the field? Here are why we are still here;

1. Built for the Long Run, Not Just the Boom

At GetLinks, we’ve always believed in sustainable growth. While others expanded rapidly during hiring booms, we focused on building a strong foundation, investing in people, tech, and data infrastructure. We weren’t just chasing trends, but we were building solutions.

This mindset gave us the flexibility to adapt quickly when the economy slowed down. It’s why, while others paused or pulled out, we stayed the course.

2. Resilient Team with a Startup DNA

Our team is lean, agile, and deeply committed. Even in challenging times, we find creative solutions to deliver results for clients. We hire smart and retain talent, not just because of benefits, but because of the shared belief in what we do.

When many recruiters lost motivation due to hiring slumps, our people doubled down and worked harder to find matches, nurture pipelines, and support both employers and candidates who still needed us.

3. 1M+ Talents & Strong Ecosystem

With a growing pool of over 1 million candidate profiles, we didn’t just survive the hiring slowdown, but we found new ways to support it.

GetLinks is a recruitment agency, but more than that, we bridge the gap between every stakeholder together. From matching talents to growing startups, to helping enterprises upskill teams and attract Gen Z talents, we’ve built more than a business, we’ve built a community.

4. Trust Built on Transparency

Our clients know they can count on us. Whether in hyper-growth phases or during cautious budget cuts, we stay honest, transparent, and consultative. We’ve never promised what we couldn’t deliver, we always deliver what we promise.

This long-term trust has been our anchor, keeping us afloat while others drifted away.

5. Strong Partnerships

We’ve worked closely with leading public organizations such as the Department of Employment (DOE), National Innovation Agency (Public Organization)(NIA), Digital Economy Promotion Agency (depa), private companies, universities, and startups to drive employment, talent development, and workforce transformation in the digital era. These partnerships empower us to stay relevant, adapt quickly, and keep delivering value.

The economic headwinds may persist, but so will we. We’re leveraging our services to better serve both companies and talents in this new era, from curated matchmaking to flexible hiring models and upskilling pathways. The recruitment world is shifting, and GetLinks is still moving forward.

To our beloved clients and talents,

“We’re still here. Stronger than ever”.
