How We Work With Candidates:
Research & Introduction
Before we reach out to anyone, we research the market to find out where the right candidates are working. We focus on direct sourcing, headhunting and catered messaging, never blasting messages to candidates who just fit your keywords. This makes the candidate experience positive from the start, and ensures the folks we put in front of you are the right fit.
Real Conversation, Not a Pitch
Before we present your opportunity, we listen to the candidate first. We take time to understand what they're looking for: career, culture, compensation, etc. Once we're sure they are a fit, we run a recorded technical interview to assess technical and cultural fit, so you can see how they actually think and work. This leads to fewer, yet more qualified, candidates.
Interview Guide
Before the interview, we make sure every candidate understands your hiring team, your process, and what you're really evaluating for. That preparation means fewer wasted interviews because candidates show up informed, interested and engaged. This is a big part of why Sage candidates convert to offers at a higher rate.
An Offer Process With No Surprises
We manage the offer stage directly with the candidate on your behalf, or alongside you, keeping expectations aligned on both sides from the start. That means no last-minute surprises, fewer counteroffers, and no guessing where the candidate stands on your offer.
