We get paid once, and only if you hire.
Bionic Talent is a remote recruitment firm. We find, test and place operations, legal, marketing and administrative staff for US businesses, then we stay on the hook for 90 days. You employ the person directly, so nothing sits between what you pay and what they earn, and nothing is owed until you hire.

Some of the businesses that have hired through us
What it takes to reach your shortlist
Roughly the top 1% of applicants make it through to a client. A number like that only means something if you know what they were tested on, so here are all 6 stages.
Application and history screen
Every applicant is read against the role before anyone speaks to them. Most of the 100k+ pool never reaches stage two.
English fluency, in conversation
Spoken and written English is tested live by a recruiter, not taken from a self-rating on a form. Tone and clarity on a client call are part of the job, so they are part of the assessment.
Role-specific skills assessment
A practical test on the software the role actually runs on: Clio and Filevine for legal, Google Ads and GA4 for marketing, ServiceTitan and Jobber for home services. The exercise is set per role rather than drawn from one standard aptitude test, because a tool list on a résumé has to survive contact with a real task.
Work history and reference verification
We contact previous employers rather than accepting a reference letter. Where a candidate claims US client experience, we check it.
Culture and communication screen
DISC is administered at this stage and the result goes into the profile you receive. The screen itself covers time zone reliability, how someone handles being corrected, and whether they ask questions when a brief is thin. This is where most technically capable candidates come off the list.
Final review before a client sees anyone
A second recruiter reviews the file against the brief you gave us on the intake call. If we would not hire them ourselves, they do not reach your shortlist.
We recruit across Philippines, Pakistan, South Africa, Kenya, Colombia, Peru, Mexico, Costa Rica, Venezuela and Argentina, from a pool of 100k+ candidates. We do not place anyone whose job requires a US licence to practise, and we stay inside 50+ role types rather than chasing every job there is. That narrowness is the reason the vetting is any good.
The people who run the search
Small on purpose. You get a named recruiter and a named account manager, not a shared support inbox.
What we don't do
A flat fee this low reads as too good to be true, so it is worth being precise about what you are not buying.
We are not your employee's employer
You hire the candidate directly and set the terms. We introduce, we don't sit in the middle of the relationship afterwards.
We don't run payroll, tax or compliance
If you need an employer-of-record or a payroll provider we'll point you at ones our clients already use, and we don't take a referral fee for it.
We take no cut of the salary, ever
No monthly markup and no percentage. $1,997 once, when you actually hire. A traditional agency charging 30–40% of first-year salary earns more the more you pay your own hire.
We don't place anyone who needs a US licence
We staff the work around a regulated professional: intake, paralegal support, billing, scheduling, marketing, and the technical roles those systems run on. We will not place the licensed professional. A bar admission, a CPA signature, or any other licence to practise is outside what we can vet honestly.
Start the search. Decide later whether to hire.
A short intake call, then a shortlist of people who have already passed six stages of vetting.
About a minute to fill in. Then a 30 minute intake call, or four questions in writing instead. If nobody on the shortlist is right, we keep looking or we part ways, and you have spent nothing but the interview time.
