How it works: We integrate directly with your team to manage candidate pipeline, schedule interviews, and launch full-scale recruiting campaigns. Our team uses AI-powered recruiting tools to hire better-qualified candidates, which fills jobs faster.

1. Tell us which jobs you want filled.

Whether it's software, aerospace, AI/ML, or sales roles, we'll assign a recruiter with an average of 15 years of experience to help dominate your hiring targets.

3. We supplement your pipeline.

We source and recruit passive candidates using our in-house recruiting tech stack, which produces higher-quality candidates to fill jobs an average of 30% faster.

2. We embed directly with your team.

With a company email and ATS login, we'll help your team review resumes from job postings, conduct phone screens, schedule interviews, and make offers.

4. We invoice you each week.

Instead of charging placement fees, all services are included in our flat weekly rate. You can pause or cancel at any time until you need us again in the future!

There's more to recruiting than job postings. See how we build your candidate pipeline!

Uplink filled several critical engineering and highly technical positions that had previously been challenging to recruit for, resulting in improved team performance. I highly recommend Jay and the team.

Uplink sent several software and mechanical engineering candidates, several of whom we hired after our talent pool dried up. Saved us a ton of money on placement fees, too. Excellent work!
