Twenty open roles, a portal full of stale profiles, and a hiring manager asking where the shortlist is. Hire22 finds mid-senior candidates, checks who is actually open to a move, and ranks them by how likely they are to join. Your recruiters get interview-ready senior candidates in 22 hours and spend the day interviewing.
Sourcing isn't usually the bottleneck. Finding out who is genuinely interested, and who will still be there on joining day, is.
Recruiters ring down a list to find out who is still looking, who fits the CTC band and who can join this quarter. Most calls end in voicemail or "already placed".
A mid-senior posting on a portal pulls in hundreds of resumes. Someone still has to read them, and the strongest people were never active job seekers to begin with.
A candidate clears four rounds, takes the offer, then uses it to negotiate a counter. Nothing in a resume search tells you that risk up front.
Database access is priced per seat and per year. When finance asks what it delivered for senior roles, the honest answer is often "a list we still had to work".
Three AI agents, Hunter AI, CoNCT AI and JoinX AI, run by SARA, our AI recruiter.
Create a JobCoNCT with skills, experience, CTC range and notice period. Hunter AI searches for matching candidates, including passive ones who never applied anywhere.
CoNCT AI reaches out over email, WhatsApp, SMS and app notifications. Candidates who say no, or don’t reply, never reach your list.
The JoinX Score weighs skills, experience, CTC fit, location and notice period, so the people most likely to accept and join sit at the top.
Recruiters schedule interviews straight from the shortlist. The phone screen that used to qualify interest is already done.
A portal hands your team a database. Hire22 hands over the work that comes after the search.
| Task | Job portal database | Hire22 |
|---|---|---|
| Finding candidates | Recruiter runs keyword searches | Hunter AI sources against the JobCoNCT |
| Passive candidates | Only people with an active profile | Included in sourcing |

| Pricing model | Annual seat and database licence | Package with credits; no success fee |
For bulk entry-level hiring, campus drives or roles where you need hundreds of applicants, a portal's reach is hard to beat. Hire22 earns its place on mid-senior roles, where every wasted call and every offer drop-off costs weeks.
