A straightforward process designed to match you with quality cybersecurity professionals from our curated network
From discovery call to successful placement in five clear steps
What Happens: We discuss your role requirements, company culture, team dynamics, compensation expectations, and ideal candidate profile. This is a mutual Q&A to ensure good fit.
What We Need: Clear role description, must-have vs. nice-to-have skills, cultural fit criteria, timeline expectations.
Timeline: 30-45 minute call
What Happens: We search our curated network of passive professionals - candidates identified through ongoing searches, industry referrals, and our market relationships. We match your requirements against our continuously-refreshed talent pool.
What's Different: Rather than conducting a full market sweep, we leverage our existing network of pre-vetted professionals. This is faster but has narrower scope than Executive Search.
Timeline: 1-2 weeks to identify initial matches
What Happens: Every candidate goes through our rigorous two-stage internal interview process:
Stage 1: Skills assessment, background verification, motivation check
Stage 2: Cultural fit evaluation, communication assessment, reference verification
Quality Control: Only candidates meeting our standards move forward - typically 15-20% of those we initially identify.
Timeline: 1-2 weeks
What Happens: We present 3-4 pre-qualified candidates. Your dedicated account manager coordinates all scheduling, provides interview snapshots, and collects feedback.
What You Do: You manage your interview process - we facilitate but don't run it for you. This gives you full control while we handle logistics.
Timeline: 1-2 weeks depending on your availability
What Happens: When you identify your preferred candidate, we facilitate offer presentation, handle negotiations, and ensure smooth acceptance.
What's Included: Offer coordination, negotiation support, resignation guidance, transition management through start date.
Guarantee: All placements include our 60-day placement guarantee. If the hire doesn't work out within the first two months, we'll replace them at no additional fee.
Timeline: 2-4 weeks from offer to start (notice period dependent)

Network-Based Matching
Exhaustive Market Search
The Challenge: A Series A cloud security startup tried three contingency firms over 6 months. Each firm sent 20+ candidates. None resulted in hires. The team was drowning in resume spam and losing faith in external recruiting.
Why Select Worked: We presented 4 pre-vetted Account Executives from our network in 3 weeks. All 4 had sold for early-stage security vendors. All 4 understood the challenges of nascent categories.
The Outcome: They hired 2 candidates from our first presentation. Both reps are still performing 18 months later. When it came time to hire their VP Sales, they upgraded to Executive Search - but Select proved our quality first.
Client Quote: "The difference was night and day. Contingency firms sent everyone who was available. Salisi sent the 4 people we actually wanted to hire."
The Challenge: Fast-growing endpoint security company raised $50M Series C. Needed to hire 12 people across sales, pre-sales, and customer success over 6 months. Multiple retainers weren't financially viable.
Why Select Worked: Performance-based pricing meant zero upfront commitment. We maintained a steady pipeline coordinated with their internal recruiting team. They paid only for successful hires.
The Outcome: 10 of 12 roles filled in 5 months. Average time-to-hire: 18 days. Roles included BDRs, AEs, SEs, and CSMs across all experience levels. We're still their go-to partner for ongoing hiring.
Client Quote: "We were growing fast and needed to hire at scale. Multiple retainers would have killed our budget. Select gave us one performance-based partner for everything."
The Challenge: Mature cybersecurity vendor had a capable internal recruiting team and well-defined process. They just couldn't access passive candidates who weren't actively job hunting.
Why Select Worked: We provided curated candidates from our exclusive network - professionals open to the right opportunity but not on job boards. Their team managed the process; we handled candidate coordination.
The Outcome: 4 senior hires in 3 months with minimal disruption to their existing workflow. Lean, efficient, cost-effective. They got access to talent they couldn't reach themselves without paying for services they didn't need.
Client Quote: "We didn't need someone to manage our hiring process. We needed access to candidates who aren't on LinkedIn. That's exactly what Select delivered."
