Talk to us →Agencies take a share of the salary. We charge one flat fee, so we never push anyone.
Straight answers.
Yes. We'd rather you see the work before you pay for it. Your first role costs nothing: no card, no contract, and no invoice, even if you hire. If you want us on the next role, it's one flat fee. It's one free role per organisation.
No. We built Kello for recruiters with too many roles and too little time. Kello reads the profiles, reaches out to the people you pick, and gets the interested ones onto your calendar for a first conversation. You keep the judgment calls: who fits your team and who gets the offer.
Both. A real person on our team stands behind every candidate conversation. AI gives them context on each candidate, so every message fits the person reading it.
No. Kello found them for your role, and most aren't actively looking. That's often where the best people are. Before anyone makes your list, Kello weighs how likely they are to move, and whether your company and role would be a real step forward for them. We contact no one until you say yes. You only meet the people who want to talk to you.
No. Every search runs on its own. Your feedback shapes only your lists, and we never push your candidates up for anyone else. If Kello ever recommends one of them for another role, we'll tell you.
Our team does, from a named Kello person's LinkedIn, email and WhatsApp. We never use your accounts. Each message is written for that one person: why your role fits them, and what you've asked us to share. We represent your company in every conversation, so the candidate's experience always comes first.
Tell us what's off. Mark candidates Yes, Maybe or No, and share your thoughts on them. You can also email us interview feedback on candidates you've met. Kello reads it all and learns what your team actually wants. Your next 20 people arrive in about two hours, all new faces. You get up to 5 lists per role, across 3 months, because good hires take time.
We use them for one thing: getting your lists right. Candidates you approve see your JD, so they can decide if the role suits them. Your feedback and data stay with us. We never use them to train our algorithms, and never share them with anyone, including other customers.
