Recruiting & Talent Strategy for High-Growth Startups
We help fast-growing startups scale quickly and strategically with aligned talent, leadership hires, and people systems that last.
Where Startups & High-Growth recruiting falls short:
CONTINGENCY RECRUITING IS TOO SLOW
Contingency recruiting is overpriced and too slow for fast-moving environments.
LACK OF CULTURAL UNDERSTANDING
Traditional recruiters don’t take the time to understand startup culture or growth goals.
HIRING MISTAKES ARE COSTLY
Hiring mistakes at scale phases are costly and hard to recover from.
NO PEOPLE INFRASTRUCTURE
Startups often lack the people systems needed to support rapid growth. We support both.
