Recruiter (Within)
01 Embedded
(

A senior recruiter within your team.
Not an agency. Not a hire.)

We embed in your tools, run any part of your hiring process, on when you need us, off when you don't.

Built by recruiters with Senior TA experience at Google and 20+ other tech companies, as well as agency experience. Swiss-based, fluent hiring across EMEA, US, LATAM, and APAC.

Plug in. Plug out.
At your pace.
Based in Switzerland.
02 Challenges

The best people are the hardest to hire.

And finding them takes time you don't have, especially as you scale.

vs Agency

We find the people who fit the culture you want to build. Agencies sit outside.

vs In-house recruiter

Productive in hours, not months, and you don't carry the headcount when hiring slows.

How can we help
Months when you needed it in weeks.
20–30% of first-year salary, per hire.
3–6 months to build a real TA function.
03 How

Embedded recruiting: an in-house recruiter you don't have to hire. Based in Switzerland.

We embed into your Slack and ATS, attend your standups, and run your hiring from intake to signed offer — like a senior internal recruiter, but we plug in within days and hand over when you don't need us.

Just need a role or two filled fast? Give us the role that's been open for months — the senior, the niche, the unicorn. No program, no lock-in.

04 Team

Senior recruiters: ex-Google. Hands-on experience. No middle layer.

You'll work directly with the people who do the work. No "account manager" handing your brief to a junior recruiter. No "we'll assign someone to your team." Between us we've built engineering, product, AI and GTM teams at every stage, in-house and on the agency side.

The hardest competitor isn't on this list — it's a founder or hiring manager doing hiring on top of their day job. Every week you keep doing it, you're paying more in lost product time than we'd ever charge.
