Why choose this partnership?

Because we don’t operate like a traditional agency. No rigid processes. No impersonal handoffs.

We integrate into your team and tailor our approach to your priorities using a method that’s simple, effective, and clear.

Questions?

How is this service different from a traditional recruitment mandate?

This model is collaborative rather than transactional. We work alongside you on active searches, sharing effort, insights, and results under a clear commission split.

Can I outsource only part of the process (e.g., sourcing only)?

Yes. The service is flexible. You choose where you need support, and we adapt accordingly.

What types of roles can you support?

We support roles in Tech, Sales, Operations, Industrial, and Finance — from mid-level to executive — across Canada and the U.S., in both French and English.

Do you work with recruiters based in Canada and the U.S.?

Absolutely. We cover both markets and tailor our approach to local realities.

What tools do you use to support recruitment?

We combine advanced professional tools (LinkedIn Recruiter, ATS, specialized databases) with AI-powered sourcing solutions to identify the right candidates.

How long does it take to receive candidates?

On average, expect results within 5 to 7 business days, depending on the role and its level of specialization.

Is this service only for senior recruiters?

Not at all. It’s designed for any professional involved in hiring — whether intermediate or senior recruiters, or HR partners, including those working on temporary mandates.

Can I use this service only for priority roles?

Yes. The service is flexible. You choose the roles or stages where support is needed, whether it’s sourcing, prequalification, or interviews.

How do you ensure the confidentiality of mandates and candidates?

All information is handled confidentially. We safeguard sensitive data at every stage of the mandate.

Am I still responsible for the final hiring decision?

Yes, always. We act as your operational partner providing shortlists, analysis, and recommendations but you make the final decision.
