Roles We Hire For
Our Matchmaking Method
-
Your experience begins with a thoughtfully designed intake process, where you share the unique details of your lifestyle, work and environment. This comprehensive questionnaire allows us to tailor every step of the placement to your exact needs — whether for your home or business.
-
Every search is curated exclusively for you, sourcing candidates who reflect your requested criteria — from skillset and experience to personality and household values.
-
Candidates go through a thorough screening that includes a phone interview, detailed in-person or virtual interview, a meet & greet, and a trial period if desired.
-
We carefully match you with candidates who not only meet the role’s requirements but are also compatible with your lifestyle.
-
We conduct direct outreach to former employers and references to gather insight into the candidate’s performance, professionalism, and reliability.
-
We verify each candidate’s employment history, educational background, and any professional certifications to ensure accuracy and authenticity.
-
We partner with top-tier screening providers to perform extensive background checks, including criminal history, driving records, and identity verification for peace of mind.
Our Placement Process
Begin by filling out our brief Client Inquiry Form. This helps us understand your immediate needs, the type of role you’re looking to fill, and the qualities that matter most to you in a candidate.
Once we receive your inquiry, we’ll schedule a private intake meeting to dive deeper into your household or business dynamics, expectations, and ideal candidate profile. This is a highly personalized conversation—led by one of our founders or senior placement consultants—so we can understand not just the logistics, but the nuances of your lifestyle.
With your priorities in mind, we launch a targeted search using our curated candidate network and specialized recruitment strategies. Every candidate undergoes a rigorous screening process to ensure they meet The Hire Standard in experience, character, and discretion.
We hand-select and present only the most aligned candidates for your consideration. Our matching process is grounded in empathy, compatibility, and professionalism—not just resumes. We’re looking for the right fit, not just a fast fill.
You’ll meet your top 1–2 candidates via Zoom and/or in-person meetings. These are casual yet curated touchpoints designed to help you gauge personality, communication style, and potential synergy. We guide both parties through the process to ensure clarity, comfort, and discretion.
Once you’ve selected your ideal candidate, we assist in drafting and presenting a formal offer. We’ll help align expectations, discuss terms, and support both sides in outlining a clear, respectful work agreement that fosters long-term success.
Before placement is finalized, we conduct a thorough background check (including reference checks, identity verification, and optional additional screenings based on role). A final invoice is issued upon offer acceptance and successful vetting.
Client Investment
What to Expect When Working With The Hire Standard Co.?
Once we’ve connected through a discovery call, we require a non-refundable deposit to begin your personalized search. This initial investment allows us to dedicate time and care to understanding your needs, aligning on expectations, and launching a thoughtful, targeted recruitment process.
Below, you’ll find a breakdown of the investment required to work with us and what’s included in our placement services. This ensures you know exactly what to expect as we partner together to find your ideal support.
-
To initiate your search, we require a non-refundable deposit of $500, which will be applied toward your final placement fee. This deposit allows us to begin the recruitment process with priority attention, ensuring your search is launched with focus and urgency.
-
To ensure a seamless and thoughtful search, The Hire Standard Co. charges a recruitment service fee equal to 15% of the candidate’s gross annual compensation.
This fee applies to both full-time and part-time roles.
For part-time positions, compensation is calculated based on a minimum of 20 hours per week, regardless of the actual hours offered.
This fee is due upon identification of a suitable candidate, even if the client chooses not to proceed or terminates the process for any reason.
We invest heavily in candidate sourcing, screening, and matchmaking—because our standard is your peace of mind.
