Happy to answer your questions.
What does “guaranteed cap” mean?
Your Instant Pricing Estimate is a cap—we guarantee we will not exceed it. If the role changes or you expand scope, we’ll provide a new estimate before continuing.
Is a payment method required to start?
Not for your first free submission on your first position. A payment method is required to activate Pay-As-You-Go (additional candidate submissions and ongoing recruiting support) and for future positions.
What exactly is included in the free submission?
One qualified candidate submission delivered to your dashboard, including up to 5 recruiting hours and interview coordination/scheduling. This one-time offer applies to your first position only; additional services such as offer support, reference checks, background checks, and onboarding paperwork are available via Pay-As-You-Go.
When do I activate Pay-As-You-Go?
After your free submission is delivered, activate Pay-As-You-Go to receive additional candidate submissions and extend your support (offers, reference checks, background checks, and onboarding paperwork).
Can I pause or stop at any time?
Do you support hourly / blue-collar and professional roles?
