Startups

We hire for startups because we have been startups.

Small team, fast moves, everyone wearing three hats. We get it, because we have lived it. We find people who run at that, not people who need a big-company safety net.

The reality

Hiring for a startup is not hiring for a big company.

You do not have a recruiting team, a training budget, or six weeks to fill a seat. Every hire either pushes the company forward or sets it back, and a recruiter who has only staffed corporations will not feel that difference.

The people who win at a startup are not always the ones with the cleanest resume. They are the ones with range and grit who can own a messy problem and still ship. Screening for that takes someone who has sat in those seats.

How we help

Operators hiring for operators.

We have built startups

Eric scaled a venture-backed startup ten times over before it was acquired. Brandon spent his career in fast-moving staffing and program work. We are not guessing at the culture.

We screen for range and grit

We look for people who wear multiple hats, move without a playbook, and own the outcome. Behavioral assessments back the read so you are not betting on a hunch.

We move at your speed

Fast does not mean sloppy. We move quickly, keep you in the loop, and never skip the screen that protects the hire and your runway.

We are not consultants who read about startups. Eric ran sales orgs and scaled a startup ten times over before an acquisition. Brandon built his career in fast-moving staffing and workforce programs. Today we partner with SuiteOp, building their team the same way.

Questions

The questions we hear most.

How much does startup hiring cost?

Our fees are typically a percentage of first-year salary and scale with the role and the number of seats. A founding hire and a tenth rep are not priced the same. Send us the roles and we will scope it.

Can you build a whole team, not just one hire?

Yes. We have built entire sales and go-to-market orgs across the US in a matter of months. One rep or a full team, on the timeline you need.

How fast can you move for a startup?

Fast. Startups cannot wait a quarter, and neither do we. We keep a vetted bench so you see strong candidates early, not after weeks of sourcing.

Do you understand the startup motion?

Our team came up staffing high-growth companies. We find people who can operate without a playbook and help build one as they go, which is the difference between a startup hire and a corporate one.
