How quickly will I receive candidates after starting a search?
VRG delivers an initial sample of 8–10 candidate profiles within 24 hours of the kickoff call. Full pipeline delivery ramps up on days 3–4, with weekly batches of new Qualified, Available, and Interested candidates continuing throughout the 30-day campaign. In most searches, VRG recruiters are calling and screening candidates by the morning after kickoff.
Where do you find your candidates?
VRG sources candidates across every available online channel — including major job boards, LinkedIn and professional networks, niche industry platforms, resume databases, and targeted outreach lists — with no reliance on a single platform or pre-existing talent pool. Each search begins with a fresh sourcing strategy built for the specific role, including passive candidates who are not actively applying and would not appear in a standard applicant pool.
Can you find passive or hard-to-reach talent?
Yes. VRG specializes in passive candidate sourcing — identifying and engaging professionals who are not actively job searching but may be open to the right opportunity. VRG's overnight research team systematically works niche platforms, resume databases, and professional networks that most internal TA teams lack the time or tools to cover. Every passive candidate is personally contacted and screened by a U.S.-based VRG recruiter before being submitted to the client.
How do you ensure candidates are Qualified, Available, and Interested?
Every candidate VRG submits must pass a three-part QAI screen conducted by a U.S.-based recruiter via live phone conversation:
(1) Qualified — skills, experience, and background are verified against the role requirements.
(2) Available — current employment status, notice period, and start timeline are confirmed.
(3) Interested — the candidate has expressed genuine interest in the specific opportunity, not a general openness to job searching.
Clients only receive candidates who pass all three criteria. No candidate is submitted based on resume match alone.
What happens if I'm not satisfied with the candidates?
VRG recalibrates the search at no additional charge if submitted candidates do not meet expectations. Recalibration may include adjusting the sourcing strategy, redefining qualification criteria, or expanding the candidate pool. Because VRG's pricing is flat-fee — not tied to placements — there is no financial disincentive to continuing work within the 30-day window. There are no restart fees and no contract penalties.
What happens when I start a search with Velocity?
A VRG search follows five structured steps: (1) Kickoff call scheduled within 24–48 hours of signing — VRG's team reviews job requirements and builds the sourcing strategy. (2) Day 1: The overnight Bangkok research team activates and begins candidate identification. (3) Day 2: An initial sample of 8–10 candidate profiles is delivered for client review and calibration. (4) Days 3–4: Full candidate outreach and phone screening begins, front-loading the pipeline. (5) Ongoing: Weekly QAI candidate updates continue for the full 30-day campaign window.
How do you ensure consistency and quality across time zones?
VRG maintains cross-timezone quality through structured daily hand-offs between the Bangkok sourcing team and the U.S. recruiting team, shared sourcing systems with real-time visibility into candidate status, and a single dedicated Client Manager who owns communication and quality accountability for each engagement. The offshore model does not introduce a quality lag — it introduces speed. Every candidate the Bangkok team identifies overnight is personally reviewed, called, and qualified by a U.S. recruiter before being submitted to the client.
