Full brief02 / Our method
A short route to a good yes.
There are only three steps because recruitment does not improve when you add a fourth spreadsheet.
- 01
Tell us the truth.
The messy context, the actual salary and why somebody smart would care.
- 02
Meet a small list.
Three to five properly spoken-to people, with clear notes and no CV confetti.
- 03
Make it mutual.
Useful feedback both ways, honest closing and a start that still feels good on Monday.
