Frequently asked questions
How do you deliver candidates in four days?
We work from a pre-vetted database of 200,000+ professionals plus targeted outreach, so sourcing starts the moment the brief is signed rather than after a job ad has run.
What happens if a hire does not work out?
Recruitment engagements include a replacement guarantee — if a placement leaves within the guarantee window, we run the search again at no additional fee.
