About us
ABA Placement exists because every unfilled BCBA seat is a child on a waitlist. We built a recruitment practice around one clinical field so we can move faster than the generalists and be right more often than the job boards.

The problem
Clinics were turning families away while qualified analysts sat in roles that didn't fit them. Generalist agencies couldn't tell a BCBA from a BCaBA, let alone assess clinical fit.
The decision
We narrowed to applied behavior analysis only — BCBA, BCaBA, RBT, and clinical leadership. Every recruiter learned the credentialing landscape state by state.
Today
Most of our candidates come from referrals by analysts we placed before. That is why our shortlists arrive in 48 hours and our retention sits at 98%.
Four rules we don't bend, even when bending them would close a deal faster.
We would rather send you three analysts who genuinely fit than thirty resumes scraped from a keyword search. Our shortlists are short on purpose.
Burnout is the industry's real staffing crisis. We ask about billable ratios, drive time, and supervision quality because those are the reasons good analysts leave.
If a role isn't right for a candidate, we say so. If a caseload expectation will scare off the market, we tell the employer. It costs us placements and earns us repeat clients.
BACB status, state licensure, references, and background checks are confirmed before anyone is submitted. No exceptions, no chasing paperwork later.
“ABA Placement filled two critical BCBA roles in under 10 days. The candidates were credentialed, experienced, and culturally aligned.”
