Simple Success Fee

Pay nothing until we place the right person. Our fee aligns our interests directly with yours.

How the 5% works

Only pay when you hire

Zero upfront fees. Zero retainers. Our fee is triggered the moment a candidate accepts an offer — and not a moment before.

5% of first-year salary

Our success fee is 5% of the candidate's agreed first-year base salary. Compared to the industry standard of 15–30%, this is a fraction of the cost.

Invoiced within 7 days of start date

Once the candidate starts, we issue a single clean invoice. Payment terms are net-30. No hidden charges or monthly subscriptions.

90-day guarantee

If the candidate leaves within 90 days of their start date, we replace them at no additional fee. Your risk is fully protected.

Transparent Ecosystem

Resources

Common Enquiries

Deep dives into our methodology, privacy, and technical stack.

Is my professional data secure?

Security is the cornerstone of Wondering Scouts. Your profile is encrypted using our Scouting Protocol and only visible to companies that match your specific criteria once you grant explicit consent.

How does the AI matching actually work?

We use Gemini 1.5 Flash models to perform semantic analysis on both your aspirations and a company's actual project history, ensuring cultural and technical alignment at the highest level.

Can I use a traditional resume?

While you can upload a PDF for context, our system is designed to bypass the friction of rigid templates. We prefer building your profile through dialogue to capture the nuances that static documents often miss.

How much does Wondering Scouts cost?

Absolutely nothing. We operate on a candidate-first model where hiring partners cover the scouting costs, ensuring world-class talent pays exactly $/£/€ 0.

What industries do you specialize in?

While our origins are in the creative and technical sectors, our AI scouts are industry-agnostic. We focus on high-impact roles where culture and skill alignment are critical.

How do I get started?

Simply scroll to the top and start a conversation with Aria. She'll guide you through the initial discovery process and begin building your real-time profile.

How does pricing work?

We charge a flat 5% success fee based on the candidate's first-year salary—but only if you actually hire them. There are zero upfront costs or retainer fees.

How fast can I see candidates?

Because Atlas constantly monitors the market, highly refined shortlists can often be delivered within hours rather than weeks.

How is the talent vetted?

We provide highly refined talent. Atlas uses advanced semantic analysis and cultural alignment mapping to ensure every candidate is genuinely "scout-worthy" before you see them.

Will I be bombarded with sales calls?

Absolutely not. We offer straightforward advice and suggestions without the aggressive sales pitches typical of traditional recruiting agencies.

What industries do you cover?

While our origins are in the creative, design, tech, and marketing sectors, our AI scouts are industry-agnostic and focus on high-impact roles requiring strong cultural alignment.
