HOW IT WORKS

From role to introduction in four steps.

  1. Post your role

    Title, stack, salary range and location. Your first job post is free.

  2. See who matches

    Anonymised profiles with salary, availability, skills and their own words. We email you when a new match goes live.

  3. Unlock the ones you want

    1 credit for a Vetted profile, 3 for hiCalibre talent with the written recruiter report. You see their name, CV and full career stories.

  4. Request the introduction

    The candidate approves every introduction. When they say yes, you get their email, phone and LinkedIn and talk directly. If they say no or don't answer within 14 days, your credits come back automatically.

WHAT CHANGES

The QC layer your talent team always wanted.

We do the heavy lifting, so your team only speaks to candidates who match the role.

No fee when you hire.

  • You stop: Wading through irrelevant applicants

    On hiCalibre: Speak only to candidates who match your role

  • You stop: Paying to post jobs and hoping the right people apply

    On hiCalibre: Pay to speak to people, not to post jobs

  • You stop: Sifting CVs and screening calls before a real conversation

    On hiCalibre: A recruiter reads and checks every profile before you see it

  • You stop: Chasing candidates who never reply

    On hiCalibre: Candidates approve every introduction, so you only talk to people who said yes

HOW WE VET

No profile reaches the platform without a person reading it.

Not a keyword filter. Not a score. A recruiter reads every application and decides, and not everyone gets in.

  1. Application received
    Anyone can apply. Nothing is public yet.
  2. A recruiter reads it
    Identity, skills and work history checked against the CV, links and answers.
  3. Vetted, or not at all
    Pass and you're on the platform. There is no unvetted tier.
  4. Interviewed for hiCalibre status
    A full conversation and a written report, the top tier.

Two levels of vetting, and every profile clears the first.

The short answers
Is there a free plan?
Yes. Every approved company starts on Free: your balance is topped up to 5 credits at the start of every month, with one active job post. Choose a plan when you need more.
When do I get a candidate's contact details?
When they accept your introduction: you get their email, phone and LinkedIn, and a chat opens. Unlocking a profile shows their name, CV and career stories, plus the recruiter report on hiCalibre talent.
What if they say no?
Your credits come back automatically. The same happens if they don't answer within 14 days.
Do I hire them directly?
Yes. You make the offer and they join you on your own contract, as an employee or a contractor. hiCalibre isn't the employer and takes no fee when you hire.
How long does the company check take?
You can browse straight away. We check every company by hand before it can unlock anyone, usually within a day.
Can recruitment agencies use hiCalibre?
Yes. Agencies are checked by hand before they can unlock anyone, like every company.
Are candidates exclusive to hiCalibre?
No. Candidates are free to look elsewhere too, so move quickly when someone fits.
What does a credit get me?
1 credit unlocks a Vetted profile, 3 unlock hiCalibre talent with the full recruiter report, and 5 unlock a Headhunt pick (Headhunt comes with Growth and Enterprise). If a candidate declines your introduction, or doesn't answer within 14 days, your credits come back.
Do credits expire?
No. Credits never expire, even if you cancel. Whatever you don't use this month rolls over to the next.
What if I run out before the month is up?
Buy extra credits from Billing at your plan's rate: €18 a credit on Starter, €15 a credit on Growth. They come in bundles of 5, 10 or 25.
Can I change plans?
Yes. Moving up happens straight away, and the bigger plan's credits land as soon as the difference is paid. Moving down happens when your plan renews.
What happens if I cancel?
Your plan runs to the end of the period you've paid for. After that your credits are still yours to spend.
Monthly or yearly?
Same plan, same credits every month. Yearly is paid up front and costs 2 months less.
Is VAT included?
Prices exclude VAT. Stripe adds it at checkout based on your billing address and VAT number, and every payment comes with a proper invoice.
