Recruiting & Staffing

Every dropped candidate
is dropped revenue.

You’ve got candidates, clients, and a process that lives in people’s heads. Handoffs between recruiters and account managers are messy. Candidates fall out of the pipeline because nobody followed up. We turn that chaos into a system where every candidate, every req, and every placement is tracked.

Industry Snapshot

“Your best recruiter places 3x more candidates than your worst — not because she works harder, but because she has a better system in her head. We make that system available to everyone.”

Symptoms

Does this sound familiar?

The pipeline leaks and handoff failures we see at nearly every recruiting firm.

Candidates Disappear Mid-Funnel

A great candidate applies on Monday. Nobody follows up until Thursday. By then they’re interviewing with three other firms. You lose the placement, and you never even knew why.

Handoffs Break Between Teams

Sourcer finds the candidate. Recruiter screens them. Account manager owns the client. Nobody knows who’s doing what. Candidates get double-contacted, missed entirely, or stuck in limbo between two people.

Reqs and Candidates in Different Tools

Clients live in your CRM. Candidates live in your ATS. Open reqs live in a spreadsheet. Matching candidates to reqs requires three tools and a miracle.

New Recruiters Take Months to Ramp

You hire a new recruiter. They spend two months learning “how we do things here”, which mostly means shadowing people and asking a lot of questions. Your senior recruiters get interrupted 20 times a day.

Pipeline Reporting Is a Fiction

You pull Monday morning reports and the numbers don’t match what your recruiters are telling you. The pipeline is always “healthy” until suddenly it isn’t. You can’t forecast, staff, or sell against numbers you don’t trust.

What we build

The recruiting system your firm actually needs

Four custom systems designed around how your firm sources, screens, submits, and places.

Custom ATS Built for Your Workflow

Not Greenhouse. Not Bullhorn. Not JobAdder. A custom applicant tracking system designed around how YOUR firm sources, screens, submits, and places candidates.

  • Source-to-placement tracking
  • Custom pipeline stages
  • Automated candidate status updates

Req & Client Management Hub

Every open req, every client interaction, every submission, in one place. Your BD team and your recruiting team finally see the same picture.

  • Unified req-to-candidate view
  • Client communication history
  • Submission tracking

Automated Handoff System

The moment a candidate moves from sourced to screened to submitted to offered, the next person in line gets notified automatically. No more dropped balls between teams.

  • Stage-based auto-routing
  • Notification automation
  • Accountability tracking

Recruiter Performance Dashboard

Real-time visibility into every recruiter’s pipeline, activity, and placement rate. Coach the ones who need help. Reward the ones who are crushing it.

  • Per-recruiter pipeline view
  • Activity and outcome tracking
  • Forecast-ready reporting
Our Process

How We Transform Recruiting Operations

A four-phase process built for firms that live and die by pipeline velocity. We rebuild your operation so no candidate ever slips through again.

01 / AUDIT

Audit Your Recruiting Operations

We interview recruiters, sourcers, and account managers. We trace a candidate from initial sourcing through placement. We find every place where candidates get stuck, dropped, or lost.

02 / MAP

Map Your Placement Process

We document every stage of your actual workflow, not the official version, the real one. This becomes the Company Brain for your firm.

03 / DESIGN

Design Your Custom System

A custom ATS + CRM built around how your specific firm operates. You see a working prototype before we build anything in production.

04 / BUILD

Implement & Train Recruiters

30–90 day MVP. Training built into the rollout. Your new recruiters onboard in weeks instead of months, because the system teaches them how your firm actually works.

Client Testimonials

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions

We already use Bullhorn / Greenhouse / JobAdder. Why build custom?
Off-the-shelf ATSes are built for generic recruiting. If your firm does something specialized, executive search, technical recruiting, staffing, contingency, retained, those tools force you to work around them. A custom system works the way YOUR firm works.
How do you integrate with LinkedIn, job boards, and sourcing tools?
We integrate with the tools you already use for sourcing, LinkedIn Recruiter, Indeed, job boards, sourcing extensions. Data flows into your central system automatically.
What about candidate privacy and GDPR?
Every system we build includes privacy controls, consent tracking, and data retention policies appropriate for your jurisdiction.
Can we migrate our existing candidate database?
Yes. We migrate your historical data in the build phase. Your candidates, clients, placements, and notes all come with you.
How quickly can we see ROI?
Most recruiting firms see ROI in the first quarter after rollout, either through faster placements (more revenue) or reduced candidate drop-off (more placements from the same pipeline).

Every dropped candidate is money out the door.
