The problem with good talent
Great contractors don't disappear. They just stop showing up on your radar.
An engagement ends. The work was good. The person is gone. Talent Network keeps them in view, ready for what's next, instead of starting your next search from zero.
One shortlist, no manual sorting.
AI ranks every candidate against your role automatically.
No agency markup.
Direct hires from a pool you already trust, with a refundable deposit instead of a placement fee.
Feeds your existing payroll.
Placements you already pay through Ontop, in one place.

Pricing
A refundable $600 hold. That's it.
Companies place a deposit to unlock full candidate profiles. If they don't hire, it comes back. If they do, it's the cost of finding the right person, without the recruiter markup.

Ex-employer blocking.
Former employers never see the workers they already hired.
Consent at every step.
Explicit consent at signup and profile-sharing consent at every share.
CV required to submit.
A candidate can join the pool without a CV, but cannot be submitted without one.

Questions, answered
The details, without the fine print.
How is the deposit refunded?
If you do not hire from the unlocked shortlist, the $600 hold is returned. If you hire, it is applied as the cost of the placement.
What happens if I don't hire from the shortlist?
You keep access while evaluating the shortlist, then receive the refundable deposit back when the search closes without a hire.
Who can access a worker's profile before I deposit?
Companies see anonymized candidate information only. Names, contacts, CVs, and LinkedIn profiles remain hidden.
Can I post multiple roles at once?
Yes. Each role gets its own ranked shortlist and hiring workflow.
How does this work with my Ontop payroll account?
Once you make a hire, the worker can move into your existing Ontop contractor and payment workflow.
What if a worker has already worked for us?
Ex-employer blocking prevents companies from seeing workers they have already hired.
Is there a fee beyond the deposit?
There is no agency markup. The $600 deposit is refundable if you do not hire and applied if you do.
