Fiallo & Co. was created in response to a growing gap in international student recruitment, where scale often replaced substance. Built on more than a decade of experience in international admissions and recruitment, the idea took shape in Montreal through conversations between two colleagues who had seen, time and again, a widening disconnect between students, schools, and post-secondary institutions in traditional recruitment models. Large, public fairs frequently prioritized volume over meaningful engagement, leaving little room for thoughtful conversation or informed decision-making.
Fiallo & Co. takes a different approach.
We work directly with carefully selected secondary schools to host invitation-only, on-campus recruitment experiences. Each engagement is thoughtfully curated for the host school community, bringing together prepared students and aligned institutions in an environment designed for focused, meaningful exchange. Our aim is to create clear, trusted pathways between capable students and reputable institutions, through experiences grounded in care, intention, and human connection.
