At a price that makes perfect sense.

How It Works
Four steps. No runaround.
We keep the process tight. You’ll talk to an experienced recruiter on day one — not a coordinator reading from a script.
01
Intake Call
A 30-minute conversation with Craig or Brian to understand the role, your team, and what “right” actually looks like. No intake forms. No ticket queues.
02
Candidate Sourcing
We tap networks built over two decades — passive candidates, referrals, and talent your internal team and job boards won’t surface. Quality over quantity, every time.
03
Curated Shortlist
You’ll see 3–5 pre-vetted candidates who actually match — skills, culture, comp expectations. No resume floods. No filler.
04
Offer & Guarantee
We help negotiate and close. Every placement comes with a 90-day replacement guarantee. If it doesn’t work out, we make it right — no questions asked.
Pricing Advantage
Better candidates. Better price.
That’s the whole pitch.
less than competing agencies
Most agencies charge 20–30% of first-year salary and deliver recycled resumes from the same job boards you already use. We charge less and deliver more — because our sourcing doesn’t depend on job board spend. It depends on relationships.
- ✓No upfront retainers on contingency searches
- ✓Transparent fee structure — no surprises at offer stage
- ✓90-day replacement guarantee on every placement
- ✓Experienced recruiter handles your search start to finish
What We Place
