Full cycle recruiting

We run the search. You spend your time on the interviews that matter.

An open role does not stay still. It builds overtime, pushes work onto people who are already stretched, and quietly gets more expensive every week it stays open. Waymark runs the entire search for you, from writing the role through the new hire's first 60 days on the job.

90 day replacement guarantee

If they leave in the first 90 days, we run the search again.

Whether the person you hired walks away or does not work out and you let them go, we rerun the search at no additional fee. You should not have to pay twice because a placement did not stick, and finishing the job properly is part of what you hired us for.

How a search actually runs

No black box. You know where the search stands every week it is open.

  1. Intake call

    We get specific about the role, what the person has to be able to do on day one, what you can pay for it, and what your team is actually like to work in.

  2. Search and pre screen

    We go find people, including the ones who are not applying to job posts, and we talk to them before you ever do. Only the people who can genuinely do the work reach your calendar.

  3. Candidate presentation

    You get a short list with real context on each person, so you are not sorting through forwarded resumes at night.

  4. Your interviews

    We schedule them, prep both sides, and collect the feedback so the process keeps moving instead of stalling in your inbox.

  5. Offer and placement

    We handle the offer conversation, including pay expectations and counteroffers, which is where most small business hires fall apart.

  6. 30 and 60 day check ins

    We follow up with you and with your new hire after the start date. Placement is not the finish line, retention is.

What comes with every search

Six things, included in the placement fee. None of these are billed separately and none of them are add ons you have to ask for.

  • WNY talent and pay intelligence

    What this role really pays in Western New York right now and how many people here can actually do it. You stop guessing at a number and losing candidates at the offer.

  • Weekly search transparency report

    Every week the search is open you get where it stands, who has been contacted, and what is coming next. You never have to chase an update.

  • Candidate intelligence dossier

    A real profile on every person we present, including what they are looking for and why they would leave where they are. Not a resume forward.

  • First 90 days retention toolkit

    A practical plan for the new hire's first three months, so the person you worked hard to find has real reasons to stay past the awkward early stretch.

  • 30 and 60 day placement check ins

    We come back after the start date and find out how it is going while there is still time to fix something. The relationship does not end when the search does.

  • Repeat client priority lane

    Come back with a second search and you go to the front of the line. Your next role starts faster than your first one did.

All six are part of the search. Market data, a genuinely short list, and follow up after the start date are easy things to leave out of a search. Here they are simply part of the work, because a placement that does not last is not really a placement.

How you pay

Contingency based. If we do not place someone, you do not owe us anything.

  • There is no retainer and no upfront fee to start a search.
  • A fee is earned only when you hire someone we brought you.
  • You are invoiced after your new hire's start date is confirmed, not before.
  • Terms are Net 15.
  • We work across industries. This is not limited to trades or blue collar roles.

We go through the fee in detail on the call, along with the role and what the market looks like for it.
