Risk & guarantees

# Replacement Guarantee — what happens if the hire fails

Hiring across borders feels risky because most providers are vague about the downside. These are our exact terms, in plain English: who is covered, for how long, what it costs and how fast a replacement moves.

## Staffing & HR Management

-   **Coverage:** Unlimited free replacements for active staffing clients.
-   **Window:** the entire time the engagement is active — not a 14 or 90-day countdown.
-   **Cost:** no replacement fee. Your monthly rate stays the same (lower of $800/month or a 25% management fee).
-   **Turnaround:** under 21 days average replacement turnaround, starting with a new shortlist in 48 hours.
-   **Commitment:** month to month, cancel anytime.

## Headhunting / Direct Hire

-   **Coverage:** 90-day replacement (junior / semi-senior), 120 days (senior & managerial).
-   **Window:** counted from the hire's start date, whether they leave or you end the relationship.
-   **Cost:** no additional placement fee inside the window. Original fee is 20% of first-year salary.
-   **Turnaround:** new shortlist in 48 hours; 7-10 days to a signed replacement in a typical search.
-   **Eligibility:** invoices current and the role brief unchanged.

## How a replacement works

1.  **1\. You tell us.** One message to your point of contact. No written justification, no committee.
2.  **2\. We re-open the search same day.** The brief is confirmed and sourcing restarts immediately.
3.  **3\. New shortlist in 48 hours.** Candidates that already cleared the full vetting funnel.
4.  **4\. You interview and choose.** Same process as the first hire, at no extra cost.
5.  **5\. We handle the exit.** Offboarding, final payroll and compliance for the previous hire are managed by us under EOR.

## How we vet before you ever see a candidate

Every candidate walks this funnel before reaching your shortlist. Two steps are optional and only run when the role — or you — require them.

1.  01 
    
    ### Database & sourcing
    
    We start inside our 90,000+ LATAM candidate network across 8 countries, pre-filtered on the role, industry and software stack — then run targeted outbound when the brief needs it.
    
2.  02 
    
    ### Recorded video interview
    
    Every candidate records a structured video interview where we test bilingual English level (comprehension, fluency, written clarity) and culture signals before anyone moves forward.
    
3.  03 
    
    ### Cultural interview
    
    A live interview with our team on work style, communication, ownership and fit with a US company operating in your timezone.
    
4.  04 
    
    ### Technical evaluationWhen needed 
    
    Role-specific skills testing in the actual software the job runs on — applied when the role requires demonstrable technical or operational skill.
    
5.  05 
    
    ### Client test (optional)When needed 
    
    If you want your own assessment, take-home or live exercise in the loop, we run it before the shortlist so nothing surprises you later.
    
6.  06 
    
    ### Presented to you
    
    Only candidates who clear the funnel reach your shortlist — with interview notes, English level, salary expectation and availability attached. Delivered in 48 hours.

For direct hire placements the terms are 90-day replacement (junior / semi-senior), 120 days (senior & managerial).

### Is there an extra fee for a replacement?

No. Sourcing, vetting, interviews and onboarding of the replacement are covered. Staffing clients keep paying their normal monthly rate; direct hire clients pay nothing extra inside the replacement window.

Under 21 days average replacement turnaround. You get a new shortlist in 48 hours, and the rest of the time goes to your interviews, the offer and onboarding the new hire.
