OUR PROCESS

  • We start with a focused session to align on the role, your team, and what great looks like in your world setting the stage for high-impact hiring from day one.

  • We map out the approach: ideal profile, search criteria, sourcing channels, interview process, timelines and benchmarks

  • We run a full search combining smart sourcing, inbound management, and personalised outreach. Every shortlisted candidate is video-interviewed, tracked in our ATS, and delivered with detailed feedback

  • We submit a curated shortlist of 4–6 strong candidates , all fully screened, video interviewed, and aligned with your brief. Each comes with detailed insights, not just a CV.

  • We manage expectations on both sides, support offer conversations, handle negotiation, and make sure the right person says yes.

  • We don’t place and disappear. We stay close through notice periods and onboarding to ensure a smooth start for both sides. That means regular check-ins with candidates, supporting managers with feedback, and addressing any bumps early. The result: stronger retention, better candidate experience, and hires that stick.

Traditional recruitment can feel transactional and misaligned with the realities of fast-growing companies.

We built Wolven Partners to do things differently.

We act as an extension of your team and we run a high-touch, strategic search process, so you can stay focused on building.
