Archipro, a recruitment firm dedicated exclusively to the architecture, interior design, and landscape architecture professions, today announced that Forbes has named the company to America's Best Executive Recruiting Firms 2026, where it ranked #152 in the nation.

CORAL GABLES, FL - May 29, 2026 - Archipro, a recruitment firm dedicated exclusively to the architecture, interior design, and landscape architecture professions, today announced that Forbes has named the company to America's Best Executive Recruiting Firms 2026, where it ranked #152 in the nation. The list is produced by Forbes in partnership with Statista, based on independent surveys of external recruiters, in-house hiring managers, and job seekers across the United States.
Recruiting exclusively in architecture and design since 1992, Archipro brings more than 30 years of industry-specific experience to a field that generalist search firms rarely understand. Headquartered in Coral Gables, Florida, and serving design studios and firms nationwide, including in markets such as Atlanta, Chicago, Columbus, Houston, Miami, New York, Phoenix, San Antonio, and Washington, the firm places professionals across architecture, interior design, and landscape architecture, from emerging talent through senior leadership.
"To be recognized by Forbes, on a list driven by the firms and professionals we serve, is a genuine honor," said Leslie Swisher, Founder of Archipro. "We have spent more than three decades doing one thing: connecting exceptional architecture and design talent with the firms that need them. This recognition affirms the value of that focus."
The Forbes and Statista methodology evaluates recruiting firms across dimensions such as service quality, candidate experience, and client satisfaction, with final selections drawn from thousands of independent survey responses. Recognition on the list is widely regarded as one of the most credible third-party endorsements an executive search firm can receive, because it reflects the firsthand experience of the firms and candidates who have worked with Archipro directly.
Archipro works on an engaged, relationship-driven search model, maintaining a vetted candidate network and evaluating every match for technical, cultural, and strategic fit rather than simply filling a seat. That singular focus on the built-environment professions, and the long-standing relationships it has produced across the architecture and design community, is what allows a specialized firm to consistently deliver where broader recruiters fall short.
"Architecture and design are highly specialized worlds, and our clients count on us to understand them as well as they do," Swisher added. "Being named among America's best executive recruiters tells us we're delivering on that promise."
