Hire the right people.
Build the right team.
From Day 1.

We're not just building HRish. We are HRish — at least for our first 10 clients.

Two founders.
One promise.

We handle the first 10 clients personally — every system, process, and decision we deliver has to actually work in a startup environment. That's our bar.

Why We Started HRish

Most startups hire fast. The right ones hire right.

The most expensive mistake a startup makes isn't a failed product — it's a wrong hire. A bad fit at the founding stage costs you culture, momentum, and months you can't get back.

HRish exists to give every startup — regardless of industry or technology — access to recruiting expertise that was previously reserved for well-funded companies with large HR teams.

We don't just fill seats. We help you define what the right person looks like, where to find them, how to assess them, and how to bring them in well.

01

Role Definition

We help you nail the brief before the search — so you attract the right people, not just available ones.

02

Tech-Agnostic

SaaS, fintech, D2C, deep tech — we recruit across every startup category without bias toward any stack.

03

Assessment-Led

Structured interviews, culture-fit frameworks, and reference checks that actually predict performance.

04

Founder-Backed

Every search is handled by us, not a junior recruiter. You get senior judgment on every hire.

What We Do

Where we plug in.

End-to-end recruiting support and people infrastructure — for startups at any stage, in any sector.

🎯

Targeted Talent Search

We source and shortlist candidates across functions — tech, non-tech, leadership. No generic job boards. Curated pipelines built for your specific brief.

📐

Role & JD Design

Before you search, you need clarity. We help define the role, the must-haves vs. nice-to-haves, and craft JDs that attract the right candidates.

🧪

Interview & Assessment Frameworks

Structured interview guides, case studies, and culture-fit assessments built around your actual needs — not generic templates.

🤝

Offer & Onboarding Support

Offer structuring, negotiation guidance, and a 30-60-90 day onboarding plan so your new hire hits the ground running.

🧭

Founder Hiring Coaching

First-time hiring? We coach founders through the decisions — when to hire, who to hire first, and how to avoid the most common early-stage mistakes.

🏗️

HR Foundation

Policies, compliance, offer letters, HRIS setup — the essentials that protect your people and your company as you scale.

No fixed packages. Every engagement is scoped to your team size, hiring volume, and what you actually need. We'll tell you exactly what it costs — after we understand your situation.
