The Secret to Why We’re Better
Our focus, our technology, our experience, and our process working for you.
Stop competing for the same talent.
With the typical tech recruiting firm, you’re competing against a huge crowd. They’re all farming the same leads from the same schools, the same companies, and the same job boards.We look in places the average tech recruiter probably couldn’t find on a map, and we see incredible talent. We’ve met them, we’ve worked with them on our own projects, and we’ve successfully connected them with our clients.We know where to find these often overlooked tech hubs because we’ve been there. Our diverse backgrounds and experience living and working all over the world means we’re not just browsing LinkedIn.
Finding the best candidate.
We identify top talent and connect with them before they enter the job search market. Using AI tools to identify and vet candidates that match the specific criteria of your position, we engage through our network of contacts and social media.In the start-up space, there’s more to a good match than just a set of skills. Our background in psychology and our experience working specifically in the start-up to Series A phase, means we understand that not everyone is cut out for these roles.The ability to adapt, work under pressure, and a desire to do things that have never been done before are things we often take for granted as entrepreneurs. We look for personality traits that will fit into the specific culture of your operation.
Your hiring experience.
Finding the right person is important, but the hiring experience needs to work for you too.Our process is designed for maximum efficiency. That means we’re able to identify the right candidates quickly. It saves your time and money. You can expect the first few introductions in as little as 3 days.There are no stacks of resumes. On average, our clients find the right person within the first 10 candidates. Some even hire the first one.Saving your time and ours allows us to keep costs low. Depending on your needs, we can be 50% less than industry standards.

Do you only work with Sr. Tech Talent?
We work mainly with Sr. talent like tech or team leaders, principal or staff engineers, first tech hires, etc. But we also find great people for mid-level or semi-senior roles.All of the candidates have over 5 years of experience, speak fluent English, and are motivated to work in long-term, full-time positions at US startups.
Are these only remote jobs?
We are advocates of remote work within similar time zones.We focus on the Americas as a broader talent pool because we know where to find great candidates in Canada, Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, and elsewhere.Our standard recruiting services only focus on remote opportunities, but our sourcing sprints target candidates open to in-person, hybrid, or remote opportunities.
Can you help us with hiring outside the US?
Absolutely. If you’ve never done it before, it can be challenging to hire from Canada or Latin America. We’ve been doing this for a long time. We’ve placed hundreds (numerous) candidates from all over the Americas with US based companies. We’re here to help throughout the entire process.
