Our Process

Every partnership begins with a deep understanding of your goals, culture, and hiring priorities.
We start with a discovery meeting to define:

• Roles, skill sets, and success metrics

• Compensation structure and timelines

• Cultural and team fit

• Preferred communication style and tools

You’ll be assigned a dedicated Account Manager — your single point of contact throughout your engagement.

For Subscription Clients:
After you select your plan, you’ll receive an onboarding email requesting company details, hiring goals, and role priorities.
Once your account is activated, your Account Manager leads a kickoff call to map out your custom hiring roadmap and configure your ATS or dashboard access.

For Contingency Clients:
Once a signed client agreement is received, we initiate your search immediately.
We prioritize speed and precision to deliver qualified candidates within days — often from our existing talent pipeline.

Our Human + AI sourcing system targets both active and passive candidates across national databases, job boards, LinkedIn Recruiter, and internal networks.
We don’t wait for applicants — we headhunt.

Every candidate goes through structured evaluation by experienced recruiters:

• Skills and background verification

• Cultural and team alignment

• Optional testing and assessments

• Reference or background checks

You’ll receive shortlists weekly or bi-weekly (for subscription clients) or within agreed timeframes (for contingency searches).

Clients consistently choose Elev8 for our communication excellence.
Here’s how we keep every search aligned and transparent:

Dedicated Account Manager — One point of contact managing all roles, updates, and recruiter coordination.
Real-Time Dashboards — Track candidates, interviews, and offers directly through, CRM or your connected ATS
Weekly Progress Reports — Receive detailed summaries of open roles, pipeline activity, and recruiter insights.
Always-On Access — Call, email, or message your Account Manager anytime 
Candidate Feedback Loop — Post-interview feedback drives smarter, faster sourcing each week.
Post-Hire Check-Ins — Follow-ups at 7, 30, and 60 days ensure long-term satisfaction.

We coordinate interview scheduling, gather structured feedback, and handle offer negotiation.
Your recruiter ensures a seamless process from first conversation to final signature.
For subscription clients, offer data flows into your monthly placement report; for contingency searches, it marks a successful placement milestone

Once an offer is accepted, we support onboarding and new-hire integration.
We maintain communication with both client and candidate during the first 60 days, providing a smooth transition and ensuring satisfaction — covered under the Elev8 Replacement Guarantee.

We believe in data-driven recruiting.
Each month (or at project close), you’ll receive performance metrics covering:

• Time-to-fill

• Source effectiveness

• Candidate engagement

• Offer acceptance rates

These insights continuously refine our approach and increase hiring ROI.
