Process / How We Hire

Brief in.
Short list
out.

Six steps, same order every time. Timelines depend on the role, the pay band and the market — we'll give you a realistic estimate at intake rather than a promise up front.

  1. 01 //

    Intake Brief

    A working session with the hiring manager. Scope, day-to-day, must-haves versus nice-to-haves, pay band, interview panel and the date you need someone in the seat.

    Output: a written brief we both agree on.

  2. 02 //

    Multi-Channel Sourcing

    Postings and active search across Indeed, LinkedIn, Hireline, JobsAI, Meta and Monster, plus referrals, career-fair contacts and candidates already on our bench.

    Output: a live applicant flow, usually within 48 hours.

  3. 03 //

    Structured Phone Screen

    Same questions, same scoring, every candidate. We check the basics, the motivation and the practical stuff — commute, schedule, pay expectation, notice period.

    Output: scored screens with recruiter notes.

  4. 04 //

    Interview Day

    We run back-to-back in-person or video interviews, often as an open day. Volume is the point: it lets us compare people fairly instead of one at a time.

    Output: a ranked interview group.

  5. 05 //

    The Short List

    Three to five candidates with a written summary each: what they've done, why they fit this brief, what they want and what might lose them.

    Output: your interview schedule, already booked.

  6. 06 //

    Offer & Start

    We help shape the offer, keep the candidate warm through notice, confirm the start date and check in through the first weeks.

    Output: someone who actually shows up.

Fair comparison

a crowd.

Interviewing one candidate a week means judging each person against whoever came before. Grouping interviews into a day gives the brief a real field — and gives the strong candidates somewhere to stand out.
