Three questions buyers ask before the first call

How fast is "5 days to shortlist" really?

Five business days is our median time to first shortlist for Standard searches. Executive Search and multi-seat timelines are scoped individually. The clock starts after the job description is approved and the mandate is signed. We run sourcing, AI CV screening where only candidates scoring 70+ progress, a human soft-skills interview and a role-specific AI technical interview — so the 3–5 candidates on your shortlist are already technically validated, with a scorecard and recruiter notes attached. Around 9 in 10 pass client technical interviews. Approximate company-wide observations reported by Recruo’s founder on 11 September 2026; not a role-specific cohort.

Can we engage Recruo for a single role first?

Yes. Most clients start with one open role to validate the flow before signing a multi-role mandate. No retainer required, no upfront fees on Standard — you only pay on placement, with a 90-day replacement guarantee. A single-role pilot gets the same process as a multi-role mandate: a 30-minute intake call, sourcing across the EU, Latin America and North America, AI CV screening where only candidates scoring 70+ progress, a human soft-skills interview and a role-specific AI technical interview — ending in a shortlist of 3–5 technically validated candidates, typically in 5 business days. As our collaboration develops, sales can recommend a Fixed-Fee partnership with reduced fees and privately agreed terms for long-term hiring.

What happens if none of the shortlist fits?

For Standard, we review your feedback and re-run sourcing at no extra cost. If the second shortlist still misses, you owe nothing: the 18% success fee is due only on placement. Executive Search has a separate exclusive assignment, with its scope and commercial terms agreed privately with sales.
