Straight Answers

Before you apply.

Does this cost me anything?

No. Never has. The employer pays our fee when you're hired. If any recruiter anywhere asks you for money to get a job, walk away.

Is this temp work?

No. Every role here is direct hire — you're on the employer's payroll, with their benefits, from your first day. We're not a temp agency.

Will my current employer find out?

Not from us. We don't send your resume anywhere without telling you which company and getting your okay first.

What if none of these fit?

Send a resume anyway. Roughly a third of what we fill never gets posted, and we work from the pipeline when a client calls.
