Built for the real work
A sharper way to see what needs fixing.
Most hiring processes don't fail at the offer. They leak earlier — an advert that undersells the role, a week-long gap in replies, an interview stage nobody owns. This checklist walks your funnel end to end so you can see exactly where strong candidates fall out.
Work through it with whoever owns each stage. The gaps you can't explain are the ones worth fixing first.
Who it's for
In-house talent leads, founders and operations owners who suspect their process is leaking candidates but can't see where.
