What a nearshore recruiting firm does
A recruiting firm exists to take the riskiest step in building a team, choosing the person, off your plate. A nearshore recruiting firm does it with talent from your own working day: for US companies, that means Latin America, where candidates share US business hours instead of replying overnight from twelve time zones away. Opus goes one step further than most: it does not stop at the introduction. It manages the placement long term, handles payroll and compliance, and stays accountable for the hire for its entire life.
Every Opus candidate passes an 8-layer vetting process before reaching a shortlist.
How an Opus search works
- Define. One 20-minute call to scope the role.
- Vet. Candidates pass 8 layers of vetting; more than 500 candidates have been screened. Finalists complete the 6-module internal AI certification.
- Shortlist. The top 3 candidates on your desk in 5 days. You interview, you choose.
- Place. Onboarded in 14 days on average, with contracts, payroll, and compliance run by Opus.
- Guarantee. If the hire ever stops working out, Opus replaces them free. No cap, no time limit.
Roles Opus recruits
Senior, full-time roles across operations, software engineering, finance and revenue operations, customer success, sales development, and project management. If the seat matters enough that a bad hire shows up in the P&L, it is an Opus search.
