How a Mindpool USA search runs
Every engagement starts with a briefing call in which we pull apart the role rather than the job title: the problems the hire owns in their first two quarters, the systems and tooling they inherit, who they work alongside, and which parts of the specification are genuinely non-negotiable. That brief becomes the scorecard we screen against for this search, so shortlists are argued for on evidence instead of keyword overlap.
Sourcing is deliberately two-track. We approach specialists already known to our sector recruiters, and we run targeted, specialised outreach into the specific teams, programmes, and technologies where the relevant experience actually sits — including people who are not searching. Candidates are then interviewed by a recruiter who understands the domain, reference-checked on the claims that matter, and presented with a written rationale, compensation expectations, notice period, and location constraints already confirmed.
Permanent hiring only — what that means
Mindpool USA is a permanent recruitment and executive search firm. Every placement is a full-time, direct-hire employee on your payroll, on your benefits, and inside your engineering culture. We do not provide contract, temporary, temp-to-hire, or contingent staffing, and we do not act as an employer of record. That single focus is why our process optimises for retention rather than time-to-fill alone.
- • Contingent permanent search, retained executive search, embedded RPO, or research-led talent mapping
- • Sector-specialist recruiters in AI and machine learning, energy, and semiconductors
- • Roughly 21 days from brief to a signed offer on a typical search
- • 90-day retention guarantee on every permanent placement
- • U.S. nationwide coverage, with a secondary UK practice
Hiring managers can book a call or email a hiring brief and receive a calibrated shortlist with market context on availability and compensation before committing to a full search.
