How it works

Four steps, from brief to start date.

01

Brief

A conversation about the role and the team. We write it up and agree it with you before we start.

02

Screen everyone

Every applicant read against the brief. Not the first thirty. If the field is thin, we widen the search.

03

Meet the few

A shortlist with the reasoning beside each name. Our target for the first list is 72 hours.

04

Hired

Interviews, references and the offer, run with you through to their first day.

What’s included

Everything from the ad to the offer.

No retainer, no hourly charges, no shortlist fee.

  • Ad written and posted on the job board
  • Every applicant read and assessed against your brief
  • A shortlist with the reasoning beside each name
  • Interviews, references and the offer managed with you
  • Replacement guarantee: 120 days if they resign, 90 if let go

Premium advertising, testing or candidate travel only if you ask for them, agreed first and charged at cost.

Questions

Straight answers.

All questions

Why a fixed fee and not a percentage?

A percentage rises with every dollar of salary. Ours is a set amount for each salary band, published above, so you know the number before we start. Within a band, it doesn’t move with the offer.

What if the salary changes during the search?

The fee follows the package you actually agree. If the offer lands in a higher or lower band, that band’s fixed fee applies, and you know the number before you make the offer.

What does the $800 cover?

It starts the search. If we don’t send a shortlist worth interviewing within 30 days, you can end the search and we refund it in full.

What if the hire doesn’t work out?

If they resign within 120 days, or you let them go within 90, we find a replacement.

Do you use AI?

We use technology to support our process, built and hosted on our own infrastructure. It doesn’t decide who we put forward. Every candidate we put forward is reviewed and chosen by the Talyn team.
