Shortlist in 72 hours
Hire the right people.
Without the wait.
We find and screen candidates for your open roles. You pay only when they join.
The problem
Hiring takes too long.
And most resumes don't fit.
A job post brings hundreds of applications. Few are relevant.
Your team spends hours screening instead of building.
Good candidates take other offers while you're still sorting resumes.
HireStern does the searching and screening, so you only meet people worth meeting.

Tell us what you need on a short call. Skills, level, budget, location.

You pick. We coordinate interviews and follow-ups until they join.
