How it works

One agent. Entire top-of-funnel recruiting.

01

Sources everywhere

Searches across platforms, databases, and talent pools to find candidates that match your criteria. Goes beyond LinkedIn to where the best people actually are.

02

Screens and ranks

Evaluates every candidate against your role requirements, culture signals, and deal-breakers. Surfaces a ranked shortlist, not a pile of resumes.

03

Writes personalized outreach

Crafts messages that reference each candidate's actual work, not generic templates. Higher response rates because every touchpoint feels human.

04

Books interviews

Coordinates scheduling between candidates and your team. Handles timezone math, calendar conflicts, and follow-ups so nothing falls through.

The shift

Recruiting agencies had a good run.

How it used to work

  • Pay $15-25K per placement to an agency
  • Wait 4-8 weeks for a shortlist
  • Get generic candidates who applied everywhere
  • Lose top talent to faster-moving competitors
  • Start over when a hire doesn't work out

How Shortlist works

  • Flat monthly fee, unlimited sourcing
  • Candidates in your inbox within hours
  • Personalized outreach that actually converts
  • Runs 24/7, never misses a passive candidate
  • Learns your preferences, gets sharper over time

Recruiting used to require a team. Now it requires Shortlist.

Built for startups, agencies, and growing businesses that hire to win.
