Services · Dedicated RPO

A recruiter on your team.

A dedicated recruiter embedded with your talent acquisition team, full-time or half-time. Your brand, your process, our AI and recruiting depth. The scalable alternative to hiring and training in-house.

Who it's for

Built for hiring at scale.

Contingency is perfect for occasional hires, but once you're running 10+ open roles at once, per-role fees stop making sense. Dedicated RPO flattens the math and puts a recruiter fully inside your team, not juggling five other clients' pipelines.

High-volume hiring

You're hiring 10+ roles across engineering, sales, or GTM this year, fast enough that per-role fees get painful.

Stretched TA team

Your in-house team is buried, parental leave, growth, or you simply can't hire a good senior recruiter in this market.

Rapid pipeline building

You just closed a round, opened a new office, or acquired a company, and need to scale headcount by 30-50% in the next 12 months.

How it works

Embedded, not transactional.

Your dedicated recruiter operates as an extension of your team. They use your ATS, sit in your hiring meetings, pitch candidates as a member of your company, and hand off a clean pipeline when the engagement ends.

01

Scope

We define the roles in scope, hiring targets, seniority mix, and the level of embedding, full-time or half-time, onsite days, your tools.

02

Match

We assign a recruiter from our team whose sector experience fits, bilingual EN/JP, veteran of similar searches, ready to work within 2 weeks.

03

Embed

They join your standups, use your ATS, get a company email address, and are introduced to candidates as a member of your TA team.

04

Execute

Full-cycle sourcing, scouting, screening, interviewing, offer management, powered by Headhunt.AI sourcing behind the scenes.

05

Transition

At engagement end, we hand over a documented pipeline, scout templates, and all candidate data, yours to keep, regardless of continuation.

Pricing

Priced by seniority, not by role.

We price RPO by the seniority of the roles you're filling, a recruiter running IC-level searches is different from one chasing VPs. No placement fees on top. What you see is what you pay.

  • No AI-powered sourcing unless you build it separately
