We give you special treatment

We work from the inside out to comprehensively understand your needs, from the technical to the intangible.

Discovery and Intake

Our bespoke search intake process is designed to ensure a successful placement of exceptional candidates. We thoroughly review candidate profiles, role responsibilities, compensation, benefits, and assess our clients' current hiring process.

Then, we work collaboratively to develop a tailored approach that coordinates every step of the process.

We use advanced recruiting technology to connect with potential candidates on multiple platforms, utilizing our constantly updated database of qualified individuals and industry connections for proactive outreach and referrals.

Every candidate is personally evaluated by us before being presented to our clients to ensure a strong match in both personal and technical abilities.

Selection and Hiring

We help our hiring manager partners create interview guides to ensure a structured selection process and a consistent candidate experience.

Once a final candidate is selected, we work with our client hiring teams to make the hire a reality, including reference checking, presenting the offer, negotiating salary and benefits, and facilitating the onboarding process.

Where we come from,
means friend.

The right partnership has the power to change everything.

A pana is a person you can rely on — someone who always has your back. We’ve seen firsthand how valuable a friend’s advice, perspective, and partnership can be. When we set forth our mission of true collaboration with our clients and talent network, we put the spirit of a real pana at the center.
