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.

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.

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.
