How we are different

  • You meet 1 to 2 people, not 150 applicants. Karan does the reading, the calls, and the vetting, so the people you meet already fit and already said yes.
  • We run a desk, not a database. Every search is worked by a person who read the brief and the resume.
  • We answer the hard questions first. Motivation, tenure, comp, and authorization are on the page before you meet anyone.
