Built for your business alone

Your market.Your competitors.Your candidates.

A hiring guide built for your business and no one else's: who is competing with you for the same people and what they pay, where the candidates who would want to work for you live, and how you stack up against the employers around you.

You will not find this anywhere else. It comes from our own index of your market, rebuilt every week: every employer around you, every role they post on their own site, Indeed and LinkedIn, what they pay, and the candidates in your field nearby. We recruit in this market every day; the guide is what we see, drawn for you.

We use this to build and send your guide and to follow up on it. Nothing else; see our privacy notice.

What is in it

The market you hire in, drawn for your business.

Job boards show their own postings. Salary surveys are months old and province-wide. Your guide is this week's market within a commute of your door, for your roles, against your actual competitors, written for your business.

The sample here was built for a Cambridge electrical contractor and anonymised. Yours is built the same way, for your roles, your town and the employers you actually compete with.

Questions

Why yours, why ours, and then what.

Why can't I get this anywhere else?

Because the data is ours. We index every local employer, its postings on its own site, Indeed and LinkedIn, and the candidate market around it, every week, and we recruit in that market every day. No job board, salary survey or published report puts your competitors, your candidates and your pay position on one page for your business.

How specific is it?

Built for one business. Your roles, your town, the employers competing with you and the people in your field nearby. Two businesses on the same street get two different guides.

Where does the data come from?

Traverse's own index of local employers and their hiring (company sites, Indeed and LinkedIn), refreshed every week, and our candidate network. Every number in the guide traces to a source and a date, and no person's data is in it.

Is there a cost?

No. The clearest way to show you how well we know your market is to show you your market.

Why only 60 days?

Because the market moves every week. After 60 days the link closes; ask us any time and we will rebuild it on that week's data.

Book a call

A role open that is costing you every week?

Pick a time. A Traverse recruiter who works your market will call to talk through the role, what the market looks like for it right now and what good looks like for your team.

Two or three vetted profiles per role, and a guarantee on every candidate hired through Traverse.
