πŸ€–

Candidates all look great on paper

Every candidate looks great on paper (thanks to ChatGPT). The problem is finding candidates who actually live up to that in interviews. You waste so much time talking to candidates who were never qualified to begin with.

πŸ“₯

Inbound volume is overwhelming

Post a role and you're immediately flooded with hundreds of applications. Most aren't qualified at all. Some are - but finding them means sorting through a ton of noise first, and that takes forever.

🧩

The right fit depends on a hundred variables

The stuff that actually matters doesn't show up in keyword filters. How they handle a difficult renewal. Whether they can own revenue or just manage relationships. If they're a builder or an executor. That's what we're screening for.

We screen candidates on 30+ CS-specific data points

Before we send you a single candidate, we know things your ATS never could.

βœ“Segment Expertise (SMB/MM/ENT/Strategic)
βœ“ARR Book Sizes
βœ“CS Approach (High Touch, Low Touch, Scaled)
βœ“Company Stages & CS Maturity Levels
βœ“Revenue Ownership (Renewals, Upsells, Negotiation)
βœ“Playbook Builder vs. Follower
βœ“Lifecycle Focus (Onboard, Implement, Adopt, Renew)
βœ“Domain, Industry & Buyer Persona Experience
βœ“Product Complexity (APIs/SSO) & Technical Level
