Built from Experience, Designed for Success
Hiring the right people isn’t just a challenge—it’s the difference between success and failure. After hiring over 1,000 people, serial entrepreneurs Bill Carroll and Marcus Jones saw firsthand how outdated processes, high recruiting costs, and impersonal hiring experiences were holding businesses back.
Frustrated by these inefficiencies, they set out to build something better—where every candidate is treated with respect, and businesses can hire smarter, faster, and more effectively. That’s how Hoops was born.

Hoops Core Values
At Hoops, our core values guide how we work, innovate, and drive impact. They shape our culture and ensure we build something exceptional for our team and clients.
We challenge the status quo, think boldly, and create game-changing solutions.
- Break the mold – Challenge the status quo and bring fresh ideas.
- Iterate like a startup – Test, tweak, and refine continuously.
- Turn “what if” into “why not” – Push boundaries to create bold solutions.
- Find a way, not an excuse – Solve problems with creativity and persistence.
We take full responsibility for our actions, decisions, and outcomes—no excuses.
- Own it, fix it – If it’s broken, don’t wait—make it right.
- No finger-pointing – Blame solves nothing; solutions solve everything.
- Results > Intentions – Good intentions matter, but outcomes are what count.
- Speak up, step up – Call out problems and take action before they escalate.
We choose integrity over shortcuts, even when no one is watching.
- Integrity, no shortcuts – Ethics over easy wins, always.
- Even when no one’s watching – Character is proven when it’s inconvenient.
- Mission over ego – Do what’s best for the team, not just yourself.
- Long-term > Short-term – Sacrifice the quick fix for the right fix.
We hold ourselves to the highest standards, always pushing to be better.
- Be your own toughest critic – Set the bar higher than anyone else would.
- Good isn’t good enough – Look for ways to improve, always.
- Would you recommend it to Mom? – If not, rethink it.
- Every detail matters – Small things separate great from good.
We bring energy, optimism, and resilience to every challenge.
- Bring the energy – Positivity is contagious—spread it.
- Silver linings, always – Find opportunities in challenges.
- Stay solutions-focused – Complaints are easy; fixing things is better.
- Bounce back fast – Resilience over resentment, always.
We collaborate, communicate, and support each other to achieve shared success.
- Pass the ball – Share knowledge, wins, and responsibilities.
- No job too small – Jump in wherever needed.
- Communicate, then over-communicate – Clarity prevents chaos.
- One band, one sound – We succeed (or fail) together.
