The Hiring Partner Checklist: 10 Questions to Ask Before Signing
Download for free a checklist to help teams identify red flags early on and choose a provider that won’t cost you time, quality, or budget in the future by verifying their actual expertise, depth of processes, and accountability before signing a contract.
Key takeaways from the checklist:
Specialization and experience
How long have they been in business and what are they really good at (rather than “we do everything”).
Proof of results
Case studies/references with similar needs, timelines, and outcomes.
Quality of search
Real channels (referrals, communities, direct search) vs. reworked resumes.
Selection process
Who evaluates technical depth, communication, accountability; how weak profiles are filtered out early on.
Replacement and adaptation
Replacement conditions + clear adaptation plan for the first 1–2 weeks.
Operations and pricing
HR/legal responsibility, cross-border service, what is included, and potential additional costs.
