A Quick hello

Not long ago we were in your shoes.

As former startup founders and recruiters (and engineers and marketers), we can promise one thing above all: the problems we'll solve for you are ones we first solved for ourselves.

Today, our services are designed to help you attract and nurture candidates with high-value skillsets—engineers, sales people, designers, and others.

Jargon lovers call our work "talent branding" and "recruitment marketing," but we prefer to define ourselves by our advocacy for candidates and our commitment to truthful storytelling. Unconventional, perhaps, but we believe there's no better path to hiring great people at scale.
