FAQ
Questions about the process.
How long does a search take?
We aim to put the first candidate in front of you within 7 days of getting your job description, and a typical hire takes 21 days. A comfort advisor seat in a large metro is a different search from a canvassing crew in a small market, so it varies, and we'll tell you what to expect for your seat on the first call.
Do you check references or run role-plays?
We check references, along with close-rate history and pay history from commission statements or W-2s. Interviews, ride-alongs and role-plays are yours to run, and they're worth running. This page has a simple way to do each.
Who employs the rep?
You do. Reps are hired directly by your company, on your pay plan. Whether that's W-2 or 1099 is your decision, and worth checking with your accountant.
What if nobody on the shortlist is right?
Tell us why. What was missing usually says more about the seat than the brief did. And since you pay only when you hire, passing on a shortlist costs you nothing.
Can we hire for more than one territory?
Yes. List each seat and territory in your brief. If you run several branches, see how we hire across multiple locations.
Do you place appointment setters or inside sales reps?
No. Level places field salespeople in the US who run appointments in the homeowner's home, plus the sales managers who lead them and the canvassers who book their inspections.
What should I have ready for the first call?
Your lead flow (issued leads a week and where they come from), average ticket, the close rate your reps run now, your pay plan, and why the last rep left. Rough numbers are fine.
