HR Tech Selection & Process Optimization | CHANGE STATE

We’re passionate about talent acquisition but not so much about the buzzword bingo dominating today’s industry: Future-proof. AI. Machine learning. Gamification. It’s easy to get lost in the noise.

Navigating the endless jargon and empty vendor promises shouldn’t distract you from attracting your next generation of top talent. That’s where we come in. From recruitment process optimization to HR tech selection, we cut through the clutter to find the right solutions for your organization—so you can stay focused on building an exceptional workforce.

We’ve Got Your Back | IDENTIFYING YOUR NEEDS

Call us weird, but we thrive on digging into the details. From asking tough questions to uncover gaps between vendor promises and reality to optimizing how tools connect in your pre-hire HR tech stack, we’re in our element. Whether it’s identifying under-leveraged job boards, sourcing tools, or streamlining your recruitment tech, we’re here to make your processes work smarter, not harder.

Raised in Recruiting | WE’VE BEEN THERE

Our CEO has spent over a decade bringing cutting-edge HR tech solutions to market: thousands of career sites, an ATS, multiple CRMs, a Big Data Analytics Suite, job distribution software, a social referral tool—you name it.

We’ve sat on all sides of the table—buyers, vendors, and strategists. That experience allows us to cut through the noise, interpret vendor buzzwords, and understand how tools actually work together (or don’t) in the real world. We’re not just fluent in HR tech; we know how to make it work for you.

Our whiteboarding workshops bring your key talent acquisition stakeholders together—whether in person or via Zoom—to map out your pre-hire tech stack and processes. These highly collaborative sessions uncover system gaps, recruiter and candidate pain points, and actionable opportunities for improvement. It’s the perfect first step before investing in new HR technology like a CRM, sourcing software, or chatbot. Let’s visualize your processes and identify exactly where to make impactful changes.

Our recruitment marketing vendor audits take a deep dive into the effectiveness of your job boards and tools. If you’re serious about maximizing your recruitment marketing dollars, this audit provides a clear picture of where your spend is working—and where it’s wasted. Many clients are shocked by how much inefficiency we uncover. You’ll leave with actionable recommendations to free up budget and invest in partners and channels that drive real results.
