Most consultants spend 6 in every 10 hours sourcing instead of selling. Hire22 puts Hunter AI, CoNCT AI, and JoinX AI to work on your open mandates, so your team gets a ranked, interview-ready shortlist while they're still on the phone closing the next one.
It's rarely a lack of candidates in the market. It's the hours it takes a consultant to find, verify, and confirm the right ones before a competing agency gets there first.
Consultants spend roughly 60% of their time sourcing and only 40% actually selling and closing. Every hour on a keyword search is an hour not spent on the client relationship that wins the next mandate.
Candidates who were active six months ago have moved on, changed numbers, or already accepted an offer elsewhere. A database only stays useful if something is constantly refreshing it against the live market.
Clients don't wait. The agency that gets a relevant, pre-qualified shortlist back first is usually the one that gets the fee, not necessarily the one with the better long-term database.
Clients increasingly expect pre-vetted, interview-ready shortlists instead of a stack of resumes to screen themselves. Meeting that bar consultant-by-consultant, manually, does not scale.
Your consultants keep owning the client relationship and the close. Hire22's AI agents: Hunter AI, CoNCT AI, and JoinX AI take over the sourcing, outreach, and ranking work that eats their day.
Drop in the job requirement and Hunter AI searches across the web and multiple talent sources for matching candidates, including passive ones who aren't actively browsing job boards.
Instead of your consultant cold-calling every sourced profile, CoNCT AI reaches out over WhatsApp, email, SMS, and AI voice call to confirm who is actually open to the role before anyone spends time on them.
Every confirmed candidate gets a JoinX Score (0–100) benchmarking skills match, experience, CTC alignment, location, and notice period, so your consultant works the shortlist top-down instead of guessing.
What used to take 20–29 hours of sourcing, calling, and screening per hire compresses to roughly 1–2 hours of qualified conversation. Your team spends the saved time on the client relationship and the close.
Hire22 doesn't replace your database or your consultants' relationships. It's a sourcing and screening layer that keeps their pipeline full so they can spend their time where it actually converts: client conversations and closes.
A 12-consultant firm running mostly leadership mandates uses Hunter AI to widen its passive-candidate reach beyond its own network, so a niche VP-level search doesn't stall for weeks waiting on referrals.
A firm juggling dozens of open mandates across cities uses JoinX Score to triage which candidates its consultants call first, instead of working every inbound resume in the order it arrived.
As headcount grows, sourcing volume grows with it, but the ratio of selling time to sourcing time doesn't have to shrink. CoNCT AI keeps outreach volume high without needing a bigger team.
