How we work

The process is built for firms that have been burned by volume agencies and don't want to be again.

Six names, not sixty

Every shortlist is screened against your project types, software and licensure requirements before it reaches you.

Technical screening first

We talk through a candidate's last three projects in detail. Your interview time goes to fit, because competence is already settled.

Twelve-month guarantee

If a placement leaves inside a year, we run the search again at no fee.

For firms

Tell us the role, the project pipeline behind it, and what went wrong with the last search. Expect a shortlist within two weeks.
