The problem

Recruitment is broken.

For too long, recruitment fees have remained high, typically 15 to 30% per hire, putting specialist agency support out of reach for most organisations. Agencies spend up to half their time on business development rather than finding great candidates.

The industry doesn't need another sourcing tool. It needs infrastructure.
