Amity Lucas connects people.
She created The Amity Agency to make matches between employers and employees. Amity takes a personal interest in every candidate she works with and every position she looks to fill, and she prides herself on facilitating “matches made in heaven!”
Amity graduated from West Virginia University with a degree in Advertising. She started her career in sales, selling educational media. Throughout this time she found herself always helping friends and people she knew get jobs. Eventually she decided to become a recruiter and do this full time. Amity spent five and a half years recruiting for The Tuttle Agency in Manhattan. She specialized in what she knew—Sales, Advertising & Marketing.
Taking her experience to the next level and broadening her expertise a bit, The Amity Agency was born in 2009. Amity now recruits on both Eastern Long Island and in The Hamptons, with a wider scope of industries and job types.
“Amity is the utmost professional with a gift of recognizing one's core competencies and talents that would be of value to a company. She understands fully what a company needs in a talent and places accordingly. Amity is efficient and timely with her searches and I'd recommend her to all that are looking to place and be placed.”

The Amity Agency is not a traditional staffing agency that relies on finding candidates on job boards.
Capitalizing on our diverse social and professional networks, The Amity Agency is able to source candidates who won't be easily found elsewhere. The Amity Agency enjoys a challenge as well as the opportunity to surprise and impress our clients with amazing candidates.
It is not our style to simply speak with a candidate on the phone and then email a resume over to a client. Instead, we insist on meeting with candidates face-to-face when at all possible. We get to know our candidates and try our best to find them jobs closest to their ideals. After all, a career is an important part of one's life. We take our role in it very seriously. The more satisfied our clients are with their new employees and our candidates are with their new jobs, the more we feel we've done our job.
“Amity is one of the hardest working recruiters I have ever worked with. She is dedicated to matching great candidates with great jobs, and she impressed me every day I worked with her. Both candidates and clients should consider themselves lucky to have her working on their behalf.”
