How a hire works
From first call to first day
No black box. You'll know what we're doing each week and who's on your shortlist, and why.
Day 1
The brief
A 30-minute call with the hiring manager. We ask about the team, the work and what a good first six months looks like, not just the job description.
Days 2–5
Search and screen
We search our network, job boards and referrals, then speak to every candidate before they reach you.
Days 5–7
Your shortlist
Three to five people, each with a short note on why they fit and what to probe in the interview.
Week 2–3
Interviews and offer
We schedule, collect feedback, handle salary conversations and keep candidates warm.
Day 90
Check-in
We call you and the new hire after three months. If it isn't working, we talk about a replacement.
Timelines are typical for mid-level roles. Senior and niche roles take longer. Confirm with client.

- Software development

Why companies stay with us
“We would rather send you three people we'd hire ourselves than thirty CVs you have to sort through.”
- 01
Every candidate is spoken to
No unscreened CVs. If someone is on your shortlist, one of our recruiters has interviewed them.
- 02
One accountable person
You get a named recruiter who owns your role from brief to joining, and picks up the phone.
- 03
Honest about the market
If your budget or timeline is off, we'll tell you on day one, with data, rather than week six.
- 04
We stay after the offer
Notice periods are long in India. We stay in touch with your candidate until they walk in on day one.
Need more than people?
Some clients start with one hire and end up asking us to fix their Salesforce setup or take payroll off their finance team. That's by design.
