Keep new candidates coming into the process.
When your recruiters spend the day in interviews, sourcing can stall. We find and screen candidates so your team has relevant people to meet.
Recruiting for growing engineering teams
Your recruiters need more time. Your managers need more candidates.
For people leaders and internal recruiting teams with more engineering roles than they can cover. Choose candidate sourcing or support through the full hiring process.
Built for
Give hiring managers time back.
We can run first interviews and share candidate notes, or help coordinate the full process alongside your internal team. Decide how much work you want us to own.
Ways to work together
Two ways to work with us.
01
Candidate sourcing
We find and engage candidates for your open roles. We can also handle screening and first interviews, depending on what your team needs. Your team takes the process forward from the agreed handoff.
For teams that need more qualified candidates to interview
02
Full-cycle recruiting
We run the hiring process with you, from finding candidates to the signed offer. We work alongside your hiring managers and internal recruiting team, join your team meetings, and stay with the process until the hire is done.
Need help with one critical role or several hires? Both options can fit. We’ll agree on who owns each step with your team and adjust the support as your hiring changes.
Your questions, answered.
Do we need to hand over the whole process?
No. With candidate sourcing, we agree on where to hand candidates over to your team. Screening and first interviews can be included. Full-cycle recruiting covers the process through the signed offer.
Can the level of support change?
Yes. You can move up or down a level as your hiring workload changes.
