Our Methodology
We don't just source candidates; we architect high-performance teams through a rigorous, proactive, and technical-first approach.
Alignment Meeting
We start by understanding your team, culture, and exactly what you're looking for. This isn't a generic intake call. We dig into the nuances: What does success look like in this role? What past hires failed and why? What technical skills are non-negotiable versus nice-to-have?
Top Performer Intelligence
Whenever possible, we sit down with your best performer in the role. We learn how they got there, what skills actually matter, and what separates top performers from the rest. This informs our search. We know exactly who to target.
Proactive Hunting
We don't wait for resumes. We hunt. We identify and reach out to passive candidates who aren't looking but are exactly who you need. We use multiple channels: phone, text, email, and LinkedIn. Multiple touchpoints until we make contact.
Immediate Shortlist with Write-up
When we find strong fits, we don't make you dig through stacks of resumes. We send a curated shortlist with a write-up explaining why each candidate fits, not just their background, but why they'd succeed in your specific environment.
Interview Facilitation
We manage the process end to end: coordinating schedules, preparing both sides, and keeping momentum so nothing stalls.
Offer and Close
When you're ready to extend an offer, we present it professionally and help close. We know how to navigate candidate concerns, competing offers, and compensation discussions.
For AI/ML/Data Roles:
The Ph.D. Difference
Derek, Ph.D.
Ex-Microsoft Global Lead Data Scientist
Every technical candidate goes through our proprietary Ph.D.-led vetting. Our technical advisor, a Ph.D. in Statistics and former Global Lead Data Scientist at Microsoft, conducts a 45 to 60 minute technical interview covering real-world scenarios.
Most recruiters can't evaluate AI/ML expertise. We can. We separate buzzwords from capability, ensuring you only spend time with candidates who can actually perform at an elite level.
For Sales Talent:
The Founder's Difference
Chris Stinson
Founder & Lead Recruiter
With a proven track record in B2B SaaS Sales recruiting since 2014, I personally lead the vetting for every sales search.
I don't just look at quotas, I dig into the math behind the numbers. I evaluate candidates on their territory strategy, closing mechanics, ramp time, and how they handle adverse market conditions. We ensure the sales talent we present are true revenue drivers, not just compelling talkers.
