Direct placement

A placement fee of 10%. Not 20. Not 25.

Beaverhand sources the candidate, runs the AI interview, verifies skills with a technical assessment, and hands you a hire-ready shortlist. You pay 10% of first-year salary — about half the traditional agency rate — and if the hire doesn't work out, we replace them free.

The math, out loud.

What a $125,000 hire costs you in fees:

Traditional agency (25%)$31,250
Traditional agency (20%)$25,000
Beaverhand (10%)$12,500

← You save $12,500–$18,750 per hire.

Why half price? Because AI does the screening hours a recruiter bills you for. Our interviewer works around the clock and never bills overtime — you pay for the outcome, not the phone calls.

Run your own number.

Free replacement — 90 days.

If your hire leaves or doesn't perform within 90 days, we run the search again at no charge. And your fee is due only when your hire starts — not at offer, not up front. No hire, no fee.

How it works

1

Tell us the role

15-minute intake; we build the scorecard together.

2

We source and interview

Every candidate gets a real AI interview, 24/7, not a keyword match.

3

Technical assessment + full report

Recordings, skill scores, integrity checks.

4

You interview finalists and hire

Pay 10% only on hire. No hire, no fee.

"You only ever meet candidates who already passed a real interview and a hands-on assessment."

Placement = we source them. Screening = you already have them.

Same interviewer, same assessments — the difference is who owns the pipeline. Many customers use both: screening for roles with inbound flow, placement for the roles nobody applies to.
