This is your low risk-high flexibility option, but higher price point per placement due to substantial amount of work done upfront on our team's end.
When to Engage:
+ When you need to fill roles without a significant initial investment.
+ For non-executive, less specialized positions where a broad talent pool is expected.
+ When you want to maintain flexibility without committing to a single recruiting partner.

This model incentivizes both the client and recruiting partner to commit to the process without bearing all the upfront costs or risks. Combines elements of contingency and retained search, where an upfront fee is paid to start the search, and the balance is due upon completion.
When to Engage:
+ For mid to senior-level positions that require more attention than a contingent search but don’t justify the intensity of a retained search.
+ When you are willing to invest in a better search process and engage recruiters to a more committed process.

Our recruiting firm works exclusively on your vacancy, which means dedicated resources and a deep, comprehensive search. Best for senior, executive, or highly specialized roles that have a significant impact on the company’s future. Recruiters act as consultants, offering market insights and detailed reports on the search process, including competitor analysis and candidate market conditions.
When to Engage:
+ For highly specialized technical positions where the right fit is crucial and timing is important
+ When the position requires a discrete search to avoid market speculation or when targeting candidates from direct competitors.
+ When you need a dedicated partner who can commit the time and resources to fill a critical position with a high degree of professionalism and confidentiality.
