What we’ll do that other agencies won’t and why.

Our background as in-house HR and technology leaders comes through in our process. We looked at how typical agencies work (and how frustrating we found working with them!) and knew there was an opportunity to change the game.

Here are just a few of the choices we make for the benefit of our clients even if sometimes they make our jobs harder!

1. Name your company in our outreach.

The best people want details. Might they see the name and apply directly? Maybe. But we’re confident in the value we bring to them and to you throughout this process.

And bonus, we see part of our role as building employer brand awareness for you.

2. Sourcing party/sharing referrals.

When we kickoff a search, our entire team dives in and looks at potential candidates. This means that every search is taking up time not just from 1 recruiter but from a team! And our recruiters readily share leads with each other instead of holding them for future roles.

It also means that you get the full scope and breadth of our network.

3. We don’t overprepare the candidate.

We want you to see the candidate as they chose to present themselves and to be able to use that information to make the best decision. We will happily and candidly give advice when asked but we do not tell candidates what to say or re-write their resumes to match the role. We want to see a long term match, not just push a hire.

4. Advise to add a work sample.

It’s (understandably!) not always popular with candidates. And we’re not encouraging companies to get free work. But we have seen case after case of a work sample helping a less stellar resume shine or a really fancy on paper candidate not be able to do the work.

5. 4 month sprints instead of 12

While we would love to work with you for a full year (and we have a strong track record of being renewed!) we recognized that our flexibility is to core to what people love about working with Newance. We center our engagements around what’s better for you rather than us.

6. Rolling Searches

Most firms will find the best 3 that they can find then and ask you to pick one. We work with you and iterate from the first candidate all the way through the hire.
