RECRUITERS PREPARING RELEVANT INTRODUCTIONS
Write an introduction that has a reason to exist.
Connect a checked hiring observation to your actual specialty before you decide to contact a company.
Freelance Recruiter · 1 seat · $249/month USD.
Why this workflow
An introduction is stronger when you can explain the observation behind it and the expertise you bring. Research provides that context, but it does not establish permission, a relationship or a guaranteed commercial opportunity.
Draft a specific introduction
Describe your actual recruiting specialty and the observation you verified. Ask a bounded question. Avoid unsupported claims about hiring difficulty, urgency or the company’s need for an agency.
Review and send deliberately
Use the free introduction template, then review the recipient and wording yourself. Searchlight provides research context; these pages do not send messages or promise placements.
Try the review. Choose the workspace.
The free checklist creates a brief from information you enter. The public demo shows the research format. A paid account gives access to its subscribed research workspace.
Before you decide
What does the price include?
Freelance Recruiter is $249/month for one seat. Recruiting Firm is $799/month for 2–5 seats, $1,499 for 6–15 and $2,999 for 16–50. Contact us for 51 or more. These are monthly tier prices, not per-seat multiplication.
Does a hiring signal mean the employer wants an agency?
No. Check the original evidence and research the fit. Searchlight does not guarantee agency demand, responses, placements or revenue.
Will notes sync across my team?
Next-action plans and research notes are stored in the browser where you create them and can be exported. Do not assume those notes sync across devices or teammates.
