Recruitment

Hire marketers tested on the real work

We define the role, find and test candidates on practical tasks, and help you onboard the right hire.

1The problem

Hiring a marketer is risky when you can't fully judge the skills yourself. Great CVs and confident interviews don't always mean someone can manage a budget, fix tracking or make the right call when results drop.

CVs that look better than the work

Big numbers with no context make candidates hard to compare.

Interviews that reward talking

Strong speakers aren't always strong operators.

Slow, uncertain onboarding

New hires take months to make an impact without a clear start.

2Who it's for

Companies making their first marketing hire

And unsure what to look for.

Growing teams

Adding specialists in paid media, analytics or content.

Founders and managers

Who want a second opinion from someone who does the work.

What the person will own, success in 90 days, and must-have skills.
