Process

The Exo Way

A simple, repeatable process designed to produce high-signal slates and keep hiring teams aligned.

1) Align

We turn the role into a scorecard your interview team can actually use.

  • Success profile and must-haves
  • Deal breakers and risk flags
  • Comp range reality check
  • Interview plan and evaluation rubric

2) Target

We map the market so outreach is intentional and fast.

  • Target companies and adjacency map
  • Outreach sequencing (confidential if needed)
  • Screening focused on your environment
  • Pipeline reporting so you know what’s real

3) Close

Most searches fail at the finish line. We keep momentum and prevent drop-off.

  • Shortlists with clean notes and recommendations
  • Interview scheduling support + feedback loops
  • Offer strategy and counter-pressure handling
  • Start-date risk mitigation
Operating principles
  • High signal over high volume. If it’s not hireable, we don’t forward it.
  • Truth-first communication. Clear expectations and honest feedback.
  • Founder-led. Senior judgment stays involved throughout.
  • Confidentiality. We protect client and candidate information.
