Trusted by teams building what's next
BizFirst is a senior-led boutique recruiting firm for GovCon, AI, and technology teams. We embed a dedicated recruiting team in your hiring process with a single point of contact, and we also run contingent and sourcing-only searches when that fits better.
Plenty of firms now lean on AI to screen candidates at volume. We use good tools too, but we don't let them make the call. Software can sort resumes; it can't tell whether a senior hire will thrive on your team. Every search is led by an experienced recruiter whose judgment is the point.
Your search gets real attention from one senior point of contact who knows your business.
We screen for capability and cultural fit, then stay engaged through the first 60 days.
First submissions in about three business days, every one personally reviewed first.
Start with a single search and no risk. Move to an embedded team when hiring is steady. Hand us the whole talent function when you are ready. You control how far up the ladder you climb.
The low-risk way to try us. One search, one role, billed only when a candidate is hired.
An embedded team inside your hiring process, scaling up and down with demand. A senior Client Delivery Lead is your single point of contact on every search.
We run and design your entire talent function, not just fill roles. Unlimited hiring plus the systems around it.
Both PartnerHire and PartnerHire Complete charge a very low flat $1,000 per placement, never a percentage of salary. Many retained and RPO providers charge a steep 10 to 12% of first-year salary per placement fee on top of their retained fee. On a $150,000 hire, that is $1,000 with BizFirst versus $15,000 to $18,000 elsewhere.
