After working in the staffing industry for many years, Glenn had a different vision of what a staffing company should be.

In 2006 and 2007 the company was ranked #1 as The Fastest Growing IT Staffing Companies. 2010 rolled around and Richard Lingle and Joel Givan launched the National Accounts Division at Insight Global. Insight Global officially hit 1,000 employees in 2012 and had 14,000 annual staffing placements.
