Employers · Cybersecurity + IT Hiring
Hiring breaks when the resume becomes the decision.
We bring you decision-ready signal — cyber-native screening, story-first briefs, and a calm process that respects your time and risk profile.
Why Hiring Breaks
The signal problem — not a shortage problem
Volume over signal
Resume-forward screening creates false confidence. Keywords are easy to match — judgment under pressure is not.
Mis-scoped roles
Cyber responsibilities get bundled incorrectly. The role stays open while risk accumulates and the team carries the load.
High cost of a bad hire
One wrong security hire can cost 3× salary in re-hiring, lost productivity, and operational risk. We screen for judgment first.
Your team's time
Security leaders spend 10+ hours/week screening instead of leading. We take the heavy lift so you focus on the final decision.
Our Process
How we work, end-to-end
A predictable process that respects your bandwidth — and your risk profile.
Technical Intake
We clarify scope, constraints, stack, maturity, and what "great" looks like — before sourcing a single candidate. If the role is mis-scoped, we tell you.
Targeted Sourcing
We activate domain networks and practitioner pipelines. No keyword spam — candidates are mapped to your actual operating reality.
Verification & Narrative Briefs
You receive a small set (3 max) with evidence, tradeoffs, and targeted interview questions. Not resumes — decision-ready briefs.
Interview Coordination
We keep cadence tight, protect the candidate experience, and keep all parties aligned on next steps.
Post-Placement QA
Structured check-ins at Week 1, 3, and 6 to reduce misalignment, de-risk onboarding, and support long-term fit.
Engagement Models
Choose the model that fits your risk
Contingent
When scope is clear
Fast coverage with practitioner screening. Curated shortlist (3 max). Low commitment, strong signal.
Retained / Priority
Confidential & strategic
Deep intake, dedicated search lane, reporting cadence. Best for leaders, niche specialists, and rebuilds.
Contract / Interim
When speed is survival
SOC coverage, IAM ops, cloud remediation. Shortlist optimized for availability. Option to convert.
