Fast hiring, powered by video

We streamline your contractor recruitment process using video shortlists — so you get to know candidates faster, with more clarity, and less time wasted on CVs.

Our video-first recruitment approach helps you move faster without compromising on quality. We pre-screen every IT contractor with a structured video interview, then deliver a curated shortlist where you can see, hear, and evaluate candidates before committing to interviews. It’s faster, more transparent, and surprisingly personal.

Our Process - Step by step

Step 1: We Get to Know Your Needs

Every great hire starts with understanding. We begin with a short consultation to understand your technical requirements, team setup, culture, timelines, and budget. This helps us match not just skills — but people.

Why it matters: Precision from day one. Less back and forth later.

Step 2: We Pre-Screen Candidates with Structured Video Interviews

We handle first-round interviews for you. Every shortlisted candidate completes a structured video interview with us — covering their experience, technical strengths, communication skills, and motivations. You get to see them in action before you meet them.

🎥 Why it matters: No more scanning bland CVs. See personality, clarity, and confidence upfront.

Step 3: We Send You a Video Shortlist

Within 48 hours, you receive a shortlist of 2–4 pre-qualified candidates, each with:

  • A 2–3 minute video interview

  • Our consultant’s summary & notes

  • Key tech skills & availability at a glance

Why it matters: Instant insight. You skip the CV stack and go straight to the best fit.

Step 4: You Choose Who to Interview

Watch the videos, pick your favorites, and we’ll arrange formal interviews. We handle the scheduling and prep — you focus on selecting the right person.

Step 5: Onboarding & Compliance

Once you’ve chosen your contractor, we manage onboarding, contracts, and compliance — including IR35 support. We can also work through your preferred MSP or payroll partner.

Why it matters: One partner, one process — nothing gets dropped.

Step 6: Ongoing Support

Post-placement, we stay connected with both you and the contractor. Need a replacement? Contract renewal coming up? We’re already on it.
