Dedicated international technology headhunters
Sourcing senior innovators for visionary startups
We are not just recruiters
Indus is not here to replace your in house recruiting processes. We are here to compliment and work in partnership with you to find excellent candidates for your historically most difficult of roles to fill.
We are headhunters, sourcing passive talent who currently exceed expectations and have an underlying desire to push their boundaries.
We do not use job boards, AI screening or recycled candidates but instead search for an exact culture fit rather than waiting for them to apply to a listing.
We are obsessed with getting you the perfect match

Our principles
-
We want to learn as much as we can about your company, especially the little details and intricacies. It might seem nuanced but that’s what makes or break a successful sourcing process.
The more we can learn from you, the more informed the searching phase becomes ensuring higher quality candidates. Learn more
-
This is arguably the most crucial step and coincidentally, our competitive advantage. We will consult with our network gained from attending conventions to begin the searching process.
Remember, we do not use job boards or AI screening so take comfort in knowing we are able to listen to our gut feelings. At the end of the day, one wrong hire could cost you 3x their annual salary so it is in our best interest to never let that happen.

Now that we have a few candidates that you would like to move forward with, we will help build out the offer. We’ll help convey the candidates situation to allow for an informed offer.
As we are going for the highest quality passive candidates, we need to ensure you can put forward an offer that they cannot resist.
