Built on relationships,
not transactions.
Founded in 2009, TriQuest has earned its reputation as one of the most effective placement firms in the industry, one relationship at a time.
A career defined by
meaningful connections.
When Janel Garcia founded TriQuest in 2009, she had a clear vision: to build a staffing firm that treated every placement as a relationship, not a transaction. That philosophy has guided every decision since, from the first client engagement to the hundreds of successful placements that followed.
With over nineteen years of experience, Janel has developed deep expertise across technology, accounting and finance, and executive-level leadership. Her approach is deceptively simple. She takes the time to understand not just what a role requires, but what kind of leader will genuinely thrive in each organization's unique culture.
“I don't fill positions.
I build leadership teams.”
What sets TriQuest apart is the depth of every engagement. While many firms rely on volume, casting wide nets and hoping for the best, Janel's team invests the time to fully understand each client's industry, competitive landscape, and the specific leadership qualities that will drive their organization forward.
This commitment has earned TriQuest a reputation that speaks for itself. Over 100 businesses, from small private companies to major national corporations, have trusted TriQuest with their most critical hires. The firm has been recognized as one of San Antonio's Best Places to Work and its Fastest Growing Companies, a testament to a culture that practices internally what it preaches externally.
Based in San Antonio and serving clients across the United States, TriQuest operates at the intersection of national reach and personal touch: large enough to conduct comprehensive searches, small enough to know every candidate by name.
What we stand for.
Integrity
We operate with transparency and honesty in every engagement. Our clients and candidates trust us because we earn it, through consistent actions, not promises.
Partnership
We don't work for our clients. We work with them. Every search is a collaboration, built on deep understanding of your organization, your culture, and your goals.
Excellence
We refuse to settle. Every candidate we present, every search we conduct, every relationship we build reflects an unwavering commitment to exceptional outcomes.
Accolades.
