Precision placements for the people who keep operations running.
KiriTalent places experienced professionals and skilled workers for companies who need the right hire, fast. No fee unless we deliver.
How It Works, SummaryThree steps. No retainer.
Intake Call
A direct conversation about the role, the operating environment, and what "fit" actually means for your team. No templates, no intake forms.
Shortlist
Two to four vetted candidates delivered within five business days, each with written assessment, references verified, and capabilities audited.
Placement
Fee invoiced only when a candidate starts, never before. Ninety-day tiered guarantee begins on the start date, not the offer date.
Callout
Ninety-day placement guarantee, tiered against departure or underperformance.
Full schedule, including replacement windows, fee-credit tiers, and void conditions, appears on the How It Works page.
Executive and senior professional placements are also available as a secondary capability. Engagements are selective and referred.
Who We ServeBuilt for high-stakes hiring.
We step in when the cost of a bad hire or an extended vacancy is too high to leave to chance.
PrimaryHigh-Stakes Hires
Urgent to FillOperations depend on it
When a critical role goes unfilled, operations stall. We deliver a shortlist within five business days of intake, not five weeks.
No In-House BandwidthSourcing, vetting, closing
When your team lacks the time or network to source, vet, and close. We handle the process end to end so your operations don't have to.
High Cost of VacancyFit is non-negotiable
When the wrong hire costs more than the fee. We screen for operating reality and resilience, not just resume keywords.
Secondary CapabilitySelective. Referred.
Executive & Senior placement, where it complements the core practice.
Not the lead practice
A secondary capability built on direct experience in HR and operations. We place senior operational and professional roles, primarily for clients already engaged with us for high-stakes hiring.
We do not compete with generalist recruiters. Engagements are selective, referred, and treated as an extension of an existing relationship rather than a standalone practice.
If you are already a client and have an executive opening, this is in scope. Otherwise, we are not the right call.

AboutBuilt on hiring-side experience.
We know what makes a candidate actually fit, not just fill a seat.
KiriTalent was built after years on the inside, running internal HR and operations and watching the same hiring failures repeat. The critical role filled by someone who couldn't execute under pressure. The candidate whose resume looked right but couldn't adapt to the operating reality. The new hire who passed the interviews and quit in week three because no one asked whether the environment actually fit their life.
Hiring does not have a sourcing problem. It has a fit problem. Solving it requires sitting with the role long enough to understand what success actually looks like in week six, not week one, and then declining candidates who paper well but won't hold.
That is the entire practice. We work small on purpose; clients work directly with the principal from intake through placement, with no account handoffs or junior recruiters in between.
If you are tired of staffing agencies that treat hiring as a volume game and submit résumés by the dozen, we should talk.

Clause: Guarantee Void Conditions
The guarantee is voided if (a) the role scope changes substantively after placement, including but not limited to duties, schedule, reporting line, or location, or (b) the candidate is separated due to company downsizing, restructuring, or elimination of the position, rather than for performance reasons. A separation for performance, with documentation, preserves the guarantee in full.
