A dedicated team. Three sourcing engines. Programs for every stage.

Every job gets its own team. Every candidate gets high-touch care. The work is owned by us, and the relationship grows with the company — from a first pilot role to a built-out function ready to hand off.

01

Dedicated team per job

A senior operator runs the search alongside a sourcer, a scheduler, and a candidate manager. Hiring managers see one point of contact — and a team behind them doing the work.

02

Three sourcing engines

Inbound, outbound, and warm network — every search, every time. The pipeline doesn't depend on which channel happened to have the right person available that week.

03

Pilot, then scale

Most relationships start with a single role, week-to-week. No multi-quarter retainer. References from clients we've worked with for years are available before you commit.

04

Yours to keep

Playbooks, scorecards, candidate notes, dashboards — all proprietary to you. We're consultants, not a contingent firm. No work product gets held hostage behind placement fees.

05

Augments your team

We bolt onto existing recruiting teams. Cover hiring spikes, hard-to-fill roles, or leadership searches without replacing anyone.

Built for teams where the hire matters most.

Roles built before transitioning teams to in-house recruiting

Before FoundHuman, recruiting was a sinking ship and we couldn't keep up. They built our talent acquisition strategy and grew our team by over 100 people before hiring and training our internal recruiters to take over. I don't know what I would have done without them.
