Expert sourcing. Flat fee. No agency markup.
Other options cost you time or money. Usually both.
Job Boards
You spend 20+ hours sorting hundreds of unqualified resumes. Your real work stalls while the inbox explodes.
Traditional Agencies
Massive budget hit — agencies are incentivized to push fast placements, not right-fit hires. Mission alignment takes a backseat.
SkySelect
Expert sourcing done for you. No commissions, no inbox chaos — just 3–5 screened, mission-aligned candidates in 5 days.
The 5-Day Sprint
60-Minute Strategy Kickoff
We align on your role requirements, compensation range, and dealbreakers — so every candidate we source is genuinely relevant.
Proactive Sourcing
We hunt passive, high-quality talent via LinkedIn Recruiter and niche nonprofit networks — not just whoever applied to a job post.
Professional Screening
We personally vet each candidate on technical skills, availability, and mission alignment — not just résumé keywords.
The SkySelect Matrix
A clean, side-by-side breakdown of 3–5 top-tier candidates — with resume, salary expectations, availability, and our written "Why They Fit" brief.
Seamless Handoff
We confirm salary expectations and introduce candidates directly to you — ready-to-interview, no cold outreach required.

We stay in our lane — so you know exactly what you're getting.
Payroll & Employment
You hire directly as an employee or 1099. We are not the Employer of Record.
Executive Roles
We specialize in Managers, Coordinators, and Specialists — not Executive Directors or C-Suite positions.
Final Interviews
You conduct the interview(s) because culture fit is a decision only your team can make.
The "No-Ghosting" Guarantee
We share the risk. If your new hire quits or is let go within their first 30 days, we immediately launch a Replacement Sprint and deliver a new shortlist for no additional cost. Zero re-engagement fees. No fine print.
Your next great hire is 5 days away.
Submit your open role and a senior recruiter will review it personally — no account managers, no automated pipeline, no agency markup.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Transparent terms. No hidden fees. No surprises.
We believe in radical transparency. Here is exactly how we work, how we get paid, and how we protect your investment.
-
Why do you charge a flat fee instead of a percentage? Traditional agencies charge 20-30% of the candidate's salary (often $15,000+). We charge a flat $499 Sourcing Fee because you are paying for our labor and expertise to build the pipeline, not a "headhunter's commission." This saves you 50-70% on hiring costs.
-
Yes. Because we are a fee-for-service consultancy (like a lawyer or a marketing firm), we dedicate specific block hours to your search immediately upon kickoff.
The Fast Lane: Pay via credit card to start the search immediately.
The Standard Lane: We can issue an invoice for your Finance Department, but sourcing work commences only after the invoice is cleared.
-
What happens if the new hire quits? We share the risk. If a candidate we sourced is hired and voluntarily resigns or is terminated for cause within their first 30 days, we will launch one (1) Replacement Sprint for the same role at no additional cost.
-
What if we cancel the search halfway through? We understand that priorities change.
Before we start: If you cancel before the Kickoff Call, you receive a 100% refund (less a 5% processing fee).
Mid-Sprint: If we have already started sourcing/screening, we retain the fee for the hours worked and refund you the balance.
After Delivery: Once the Candidate Matrix is delivered, the service is considered complete and is non-refundable.
-
Grant/Funding Changes: If a grant change forces a role pivot, we offer a discounted $125 Reset Fee to cover the administrative setup of a new search.
Voluntary Changes: If you change your mind on the requirements (e.g., "Actually, we want a Director, not a Manager"), we charge a $250 Re-Calibration Fee to scrap the old data and launch a new search.
-
Do you run background checks? No. We professionally screen for skills, experience, and mission alignment. However, we do not conduct criminal background checks, credit checks, or degree verifications. As the Employer of Record, you are responsible for conducting final background checks prior to extending an offer.
-
We handle the logistics (scheduling) and the screening (vetting). However, you conduct the final interviews. You know your culture best, so the final "hire/no hire" decision sits with you.
