Introducing Curated Sourcing
AI-led sourcing built for startups. It sources from India's largest talent network and surfaces only the strongest candidates, in hours.
Proven across startups and product companies at every stage
Real hires and real outcomes from seed-stage startups to scale stage.
Before Uplers, screening 60 CVs for 3-4 interviews often led to settling for average talent.
Uplers changed that: I now have 2 super high-quality hires from just 15 profiles.
We were able to close our critical role with speed with the help of Uplers.
The profiles were relevant and activated, which made it easier to hire immediately.
2 people also joined us from the 3 offers which we rolled out.
After reviewing 600 profiles and taking 18 interviews with no results, Uplers changed everything.
From their first 10 curated profiles, I shortlisted 6 - better than anything I'd found before.
We struggled to close roles as our assignment submission rate was below 20%.
Uplers ensured we got assessment-ready talent, and their Curated Hiring Support Model has been a complete game-changer for us.
We were struggling to close this role through agencies due to irrelevant profiles and frequent backouts.
With Uplers, every profile shared was relevant and interview-ready.
The role moved quickly, with minimal effort from our side and a much better cost outcome.
We got the candidate in the second batch only, so that was super helpful.
Initially, I thought the batch system was a bit inefficient because we were getting about a hundred applications.
But then I thought if you're just providing four to five, what happens if all of them get rejected or we don't find that relevance?
Soon after I saw the first batch, I understood that these are highly qualified candidates and highly qualified applications which closely align with our expectations.
We found Uplers to be a good alternative, better than LinkedIn... I felt it was quite easy to filter.
