How I work

From an open role to a few exceptional candidates.

01 — Align

Agree on the role, ideal profile and salary.

02 — Find

I map ~200 top candidates for your role using my 10,000+ talent network and advanced search strategies.

03 — Introduction

I introduce 3–5 top candidates, screened for your role.

04 — Hire

I manage interviews, help prepare technical assessments and support offer negotiations.

You only pay when you hire.

If you hire a candidate I introduce, my fee is a percentage of their annual gross salary. Part is paid when they sign the contract; the remainder is paid a few months after their start date. If you don’t hire anyone I introduce, there’s no cost.
