How does High Five's model save money compared to traditional hiring solutions?

Traditional recruitment approaches charge 15 to 25% of first-year salary as a placement fee. High Five replaces that with a flat monthly subscription, and you can cancel at any time. One active search slot per subscription covers a full sourcing and screening operation that runs without manual intervention, so there is no bloated retainer and no surprise invoice when a hire lands.
