We moved the starting line. Most recruiters show up at the finish line. We show up before the race starts.

We don't post jobs and wait.

Recruiting rebuilt means we're already in the room before a posting even exists, not lined up outside it once the role goes live. We partner with companies losing good candidates to a hiring process that never told their story, and we rebuild all of it: the careers page, the candidate messaging, the technology, the training, for a flat fee that never moves with the salary.

Ask anyone what they think of headhunters. They don't like them.

Our Founder EA Clarke spent years inside that industry before deciding the problem wasn't how candidates were found, it was how the whole relationship, from storytelling to hiring, was built from day one.

He'd seen it firsthand, scaling a startup that raised nearly $14 million, watching the first hires come easily through the network, and watching everything after that get harder. That's what became Recruiting Rebuilt.

Not a faster version of the old model, a different one, built around the story a company tells before a role even exists. It's why the roles we take on today start with your story first, not a job posting, so the right person already wants in before you ever go looking.

“I wanted to change that whole philosophy, not just find a better way to execute the old one.”
EA Clarke, Founder

What we believe. Five values, the same for clients, candidates and our own team.

Alignment First
We match people to missions and cultures, not just job descriptions. That's the standard we hold for clients, candidates, and for the people who join this team.
Embedded by Design
We work inside a client's business, running a process built to keep bringing them the people who belong there, long term. That means positioning them as the place people want to work before a role ever goes live, and bringing in candidates who already believe in the mission before they apply.
Story Over Checklist
The checklist gets you a resume. The story gets you the right person. We work backwards from the impact a role needs to make, not just the requirements someone typed into a posting.
Quality, Not Volume
We'd rather send a client two candidates who are right than twelve who aren't. Every name we pass forward has to believe in the mission as much as we do.
Every Hire Raises the Bar
Each hire sharpens what the next one looks like. We're not filling a role once. We're running a process that gets sharper, and more valuable, with every hire that proves it works.

The people behind every hire. Trailblazers, every one.

EA ClarkeFounder
After growing an early-stage company and selling it I joined another start up raising nearly $14M USD as a founding exec, I was responsible for building sales and marketing, with no clue where to begin. Like most startups, our first hires came from our networks, but scaling beyond that was a struggle. With 30+ years in recruitment and firsthand experience scaling my own tech ventures, I saw just how flawed traditional hiring is. That's why we built Pivot + Edge: to fix it.
Rebecca HawmanDirector of Marketing and Operations
Working with Pivot + Edge is always exciting! We get to work with incredible startups changing the landscape of their fields. Our team is passionate, driven and fun... sounds like a cliché but this team truly is a great group of people!

What I love most about P+E apart from working with my amazing team, would be the ability to fill talent gaps effectively while upholding valuable relationships with both our clients and candidates.
Catherine PanHead of Research
What I enjoy most about P+E is the detective work behind every search. Before anyone reaches out, I dig into the market, the companies and the people, so every conversation starts with the right person and a real reason to talk.
