Working with Us
Our technical search process is a comprehensive recruiting solution that is designed to help you fill even the most challenging roles. Here is what you can expect working with us and what makes us different.

Technical Search

Recruiters work closely with you to understand your needs and find the right talent. A comprehensive search process is conducted which includes market research, sourcing, screening, and interviewing candidates.

Weekly Reporting

Reports and weekly calls are there to help you understand the health of your pipeline and make  data driven decisions. We can use this time to present new candidates, review those in progress and iterate on our recruiting strategy.

Strategy

We will develop a customized hiring strategy that is tailored to your specific needs and goals including D&I initiatives, finding candidates beyond LinkedIn, compensation review and looking at your interview process to provide insights.

Great Candidate Experience

Closing a candidate starts with a great candidate experience. No spam, fast response times, clear candidate updates are the building blocks for a great candidate  experience and what we provide on every search.

Deeper Understanding

We spend the time to understand the technology, your company, and the candidates experience a layer beyond traditional agencies which allows us to speed up the process and present the right people for your roles.

Compensation Review

We can provide feedback on compensation for individual roles or do a more extensive review of your existing bands and philosophy to make sure you are competing for and retaining the right talent for your company.

I have worked with all three members of The Firm for multiple years and they are great at what they do. They know the tech, they care about the candidates and they found us some of our most critical hires over the years.

Brandon

CTO @ Embark Trucks

I have seen them work closely with seed and series A companies and become a great partner for them. Getting early hires right is critical. They built, refined and continued to improve the recruiting process on my team.
