Category Standard

Humanify is a well-established recruitment and talent acquisition firm (founded 2014) with verifiable traction, including a team of 50-125 professionals and over 1,000 annual placements. While the project demonstrates high real-world utility and a solid business model (bank of hours/RPO), the submission itself was of very low quality, containing vague claims ('everyone') and inaccurate user data ('most people have used my product'). The score reflects the strong underlying business reality discovered via external verification, penalized heavily in the 'Response Quality' and 'Innovation' metrics due to the nature of the service and the poor submission effort.

Description
We operate, manage and optimise customized, on-demand recruitment and talent attraction projects - with montly suscriptions and bank of hours. 1. We charge per use, not by client or candidate head. No commissions, and above all no percentages. “Headhunting” is banished from our vocabulary. 2. We favour clever flexibility over stringent, over-structured processing. Truth is, your reality is ever-changing. Whether it’s iterations, retrospectives, benchmarks, KPis, Scrum and Kanban tables, we manage recruitment projects with the agility and flexibility required to do a great job. 3. We never overlook data. A complete database with clear performance indicators is provided at the end of each project. This allows for proper control and tracking of what we’ve done on your behalf. 4. We’re never afraid to go off the beaten track. We may be nonconformist by nature, but every one of our candidate experiences is irreproachable. New ideas, distinctive strategies, processes to be fine-tuned: we’ll be there offering perspective and advice, with the straight-talk it takes to move forward.
