Fees, guarantee, speed, screening.
What does it cost?
Market rates, and the structure flexes with the search. Fully contingent, which costs nothing unless you hire. Retained for leadership roles. A blend for volume. It depends on how many roles you have and how much of the recruiting you want us to carry, and we agree the structure on the call, before any search starts.
What if the hire doesn't work out?
Every candidate hired through Traverse comes with a guarantee. We stand by it, and we walk you through the terms on the call.
How fast will we see people?
The search starts right after the call, and bringing your time to hire down is the first job. You get two or three vetted profiles that fit the role, the shift and the certifications, not a stack of resumes. On the call we'll tell you what the market looks like for your role in your area.
How do you screen?
By specialty. HACCP, SQF and 433A on a plant floor; quota and attainment in sales; shipped work in AI; CPA status and close cycles in finance. We also reach the candidates who are not applying to postings or sitting on LinkedIn, and every profile is pre-screened to your specifications before you see it.
Hiring in operations? Get a guide for the exact role and city.

Tell us about the operations role.
