How it works

From first call to a working hire in about four weeks.

Five stages, each with a clear output you can see. Nothing goes to you until it has been scored, and nobody starts until you sign off.

If a hire doesn't work out in the first 90 days, we replace them at no extra cost.

  • Shortlist of 2-3 by day 14
  • Trained on your SOPs before go-live
  • Go-live only after your sign-off

Training program

Trained twice: on the modern stack, then on your playbook.

Every Careerz hire goes through two layers of training. The first happens before you meet them. The second is built around how your business runs.

Layer 01

The baseline every candidate brings to the interview

Before anyone reaches your shortlist, they've passed hands-on certification in the tools US teams run on. You're not paying for someone to learn HubSpot on your time.

Your hire uses each assistant for practical, daily work: drafting, research, summarizing calls and cleaning data. They're tested on when not to use it, too.
