What I do

Recruiting support, shaped to fit your team

Engage me for a single hard-to-fill role or as an ongoing extension of your hiring team.

🧩

Embedded recruiting

I plug into your team as an on-demand recruiter — running sourcing, screening, and scheduling inside your process, tools, and brand.

🎯

Sourcing & shortlists

Vetted, interview-ready candidate pipelines delivered to you. You run the interviews and close; I keep the top of funnel full.

💡

Flat-fee & subscription

Predictable pricing instead of a big percentage-of-salary placement fee — so you can plan headcount spend without surprises.

🤝

Contingency placement

Prefer pay-on-hire? I'll work roles on contingency — you only pay when a candidate I source gets hired.

⚙️

Hard-to-fill & niche roles

The specialized or senior roles a high-volume agency struggles with. I take the time to understand the role and the market before I ever source a candidate.

📈

Hiring process tune-up

Job descriptions, screening rubrics, and outreach that actually convert — small fixes that make every hire faster.

Why work with me

The upside of a recruiter, minus the agency friction

✓

You talk to the person doing the work

No account managers, no handoffs to junior sourcers. The recruiter you meet on the intro call is the one filling your roles.

✓

I live and breathe hiring

I built ResumeButter, an AI job-search and resume-optimization platform for jobseekers — so I'm deep in how candidates and job requirements actually match, every day. That judgment goes straight into every search.

✓

Flexible, no long lock-in

Scale up during a hiring push, pause when you're staffed. Engagements bend to your pipeline instead of a rigid retainer.

✓

Transparent and fast

Clear pricing, real communication, and shortlists that respect your time. You always know where a search stands.

Portrait of your recruiter
Who you're working with

Hi, I'm Ralph — your recruiter.

I'm a recruiter who's spent over 20 years helping companies across industries find and hire the people who are hardest to reach — with particular depth in physician and healthcare recruiting, IT, corporate, and finance. I run every search personally — sourcing, screening, and shortlisting — so you get a senior recruiter's judgment on every candidate, not a resume firehose.

I also build software for the jobs world. I created ResumeButter, an AI platform that helps jobseekers search roles and optimize their resumes for each posting to get past the ATS — which means I spend my days deep in how candidates and job requirements actually match. That perspective goes straight into the searches I run for you.

How it works

From intro call to shortlist in days, not months

1DISCOVERY

We talk through the role

A quick call to understand the role, your team, the must-haves, and what's made past hires stick. No obligation, no hard sell.

2SEARCH

I run a targeted search

I source and screen against your criteria, reaching passive candidates other channels miss — and keep you posted as the pipeline builds.

3SHORTLIST

You get vetted candidates

A tight shortlist of interview-ready people with my notes on each. You interview, you decide, you hire.

Beyond the search

AI workflow automation & sourcing tools

I don't just fill roles — I build the software that makes hiring and operations faster. The same engineering behind ResumeButter, put to work inside your organization.

🛠️

Custom sourcing tools

Software that finds, aggregates, and enriches candidate or lead data automatically — so your team spends time on conversations, not copy-and-paste.

⚡

AI workflow automations

Automate the repetitive parts of your process — screening, outreach, follow-ups, data entry — with AI-driven workflows built around how your team actually works.

🔗

Integrations & internal tools

Connect the systems you already run — ATS, CRM, spreadsheets — into one place, with the dashboards and internal tooling your team has been asking for.
