How it works
Four steps and one recruiter, from the first call to the last day.
We agree the role, must-haves and pay, with current market data for your field.
We search our network and approach people who are not actively looking, then interview every candidate.
A short list with notes on why each person fits. We schedule interviews and gather feedback.
We manage the offer, handle counteroffers and follow up after the start date.
The best candidates are often happily employed. Our recruiters know who is good in their field and approach them directly, with a role worth considering.
Losing a great candidate at offer stage is costly. We use current pay data, manage expectations from the first call and stay close to the candidate until day one.
