Trusted by teams building what's next
BizFirst is a senior-led boutique recruiting firm for GovCon, AI, and technology teams. We embed a dedicated recruiting team in your hiring process, get you qualified candidates in about three business days, and charge a flat fee per placement, never a percentage of salary.
Plenty of firms now lean on AI to screen candidates at volume. We use good tools too, but we don't let them make the call. Software can sort resumes; it can't tell whether a senior hire will thrive on your team. Every search is led by an experienced recruiter whose judgment is the point.
Most agencies assign 20-30 clients per account manager. PartnerHire clients get a Client Delivery Lead who carries just 3-4 accounts, so your search gets real attention from a single point of contact who knows your business, your culture, and your urgency.
Our placements stick because we screen for capability and cultural fit, not just keyword matches. Across all three service models, we stay engaged from first submission through the first 90 days and beyond.
PartnerHire clients receive first submissions within about three business days, against a three-to-four-week norm at traditional agencies. Every submission is personally reviewed before it reaches your desk.
Start with a single search and no risk. Move to an embedded team when hiring is steady. Hand us the whole talent function when you are ready. You control how far up the ladder you climb.
The low-risk way to try us. One search, one role, billed only when a candidate is hired.
An embedded team inside your hiring process, scaling up and down with demand. A senior Client Delivery Lead owns every search.
We run and design your entire talent function, not just fill roles. Unlimited hiring plus the systems around it.
Both PartnerHire and PartnerHire Complete charge a flat $1,000 per placement, never a percentage of salary. Many retained and RPO providers add 10 to 12% of first-year salary on top of their monthly fee. On a $150,000 hire, that is $1,000 with BizFirst versus $15,000 to $18,000 elsewhere.
90-day replacement guarantee applies to DirectHire placements. Service availability and pricing are subject to change and may vary based on engagement scope, complexity, and market conditions.
