Hiring Support for Employers
Hiring without a recruiter, and drowning in applications
Job descriptions that filter instead of just attracting volume, structured screening so decisions are not made on gut feel, and employer branding that competes with companies better known than you.
From $249. We are not a recruiter and we do not charge placement fees.
What does hiring support cost for a small team?
growpose hiring support costs $249 for three written job descriptions with screening questions, $749 for a month of candidate screening support across up to three roles, and $1,499 for a full employer brand package covering careers page copy, company positioning, five job descriptions and interview process design.
The real cost
A bad hire is expensive twice
Once when you pay them, and again when the role sits open for another three months while you start over. Small teams feel both harder because there is no bench to absorb it.
- Postings that describe the job internally rather than selling it externally
- Two hundred applications and no criteria to narrow them with
- Every interviewer asking different questions and scoring differently
- Strong candidates dropping out because your careers page says nothing
Screening you can defend afterwards
Agreed criteria before anyone reads a resume, every candidate scored against the same things, and written reasoning attached to each decision.
- A shortlist with written reasoning per candidate
- Interview scorecards so your team evaluates consistently
- A structured question set per role
- A weekly 30-minute hiring call while the search is live
Structured, consistently scored interviews are also far easier to justify if a hiring decision is ever challenged. We are not lawyers and this is not legal advice, but consistency helps.
Hiring support pricing
Fixed fees. No percentage of salary, no placement commission, no incentive for us to push a candidate.

Competing against companies people have heard of
A candidate weighing your offer against a known name will look you up. What they find is usually a careers page with three bullet points and a generic About section.
The Employer Brand package fixes the whole surface at once: what your careers page says, how your company reads on LinkedIn, and what your team can point to when someone asks why they should join.
Who we work with
Founders hiring roles 1 to 20
No HR function yet, and every hire matters disproportionately. Usually starts with the JD Pack.
Managers hiring their own team
You have a req approved and no recruiter attached to it. Screening support carries the load.
Teams losing candidates late
Offers declined at the final stage is usually an employer brand problem, not a salary one.
Employer questions
How much does hiring support cost?
At growpose, $249 for three job descriptions with screening questions, $749 for a month of screening support across up to three roles, and $1,499 for the full employer brand package.
Are you a recruitment agency?
No. We do not source candidates, we do not place them and we charge no percentage of salary. You pay a fixed fee for the work, which means we have no incentive to push any particular candidate through.
Do you interview candidates for us?
We screen resumes against your criteria, build the shortlist with written reasoning, and give your team the scorecards and question sets. Your team runs the interviews, because they are the ones who have to work with the hire.
Is there a conflict of interest with your candidate services?
A fair question. We never put growpose candidates forward to growpose employers, and we do not share candidate information between the two sides of the business.
How many roles does screening support cover?
Up to three open roles within the month. If you are hiring at higher volume than that, contact us and we will quote properly rather than stretch the package.
Can you help with compensation benchmarking?
We can tell you what we see in the NYC and Albany markets for a given title and level. We do not sell formal compensation surveys and would point you to a specialist firm if you need defensible benchmarking data.
Tell us what you are hiring for
Send the roles and where the process is breaking. We will tell you which package fits, or that you do not need one yet.
