How it works

Hiring, stripped
back to what works.

01

Tell us about the role

A quick 10-minute brief on who you're looking for, what they'll be doing, and what matters most.

02

We go find them

We advertise, filter, and personally screen candidates. Only the good ones get through.

03

You get interview-ready CVs

No sifting through dozens of applications — just a small shortlist worth your time.

04

Add extras if you need them

Skills tests, assessments, onboarding support. Bolt on only what makes sense.

Why small businesses choose us

Traditional agencies charge 15–25% of a new employee's annual salary.

On a R20,000/month hire, that's R36,000 – R60,000+ in fees before the person's even started. Human Innovation charges per qualified CV, so you stay in control of your budget — and only pay for what you actually use.

We're not just recruiters. We're your talent partner — from first hire to fully performing team.
