The brief
We pin down the role, the level, the reporting line, the pay band, and what the person actually has to fix. A loose brief produces a loose shortlist, so this is where we push hardest.
HireMe is a workforce company. We work at both ends of your org chart: the AI Screening that decides who gets in, the daily record of what your staff on the ground actually do, and the search that finds the person who runs them.
From the leader you hire
to the workforce they run.
Every application scored against your brief and the shortlist interviewed, before you read a single resume.
From $349 a month → Your staff work away from head office WorkforceWe ask your team what is happening, on WhatsApp, during their shift. Every morning you get the picture.
Priced per person → You have one senior seat to fill SearchWe search the whole market rather than our contacts, and you pay nothing unless you hire.
15% on placement →You post one link. Everyone who applies is scored against your own specification, the strongest are interviewed, and you meet the shortlist. Nobody on your team reads a pile of resumes again.
Type in the duties, skills, experience, and pay. The system writes the specification and works out the right questions to ask for that particular job.
One shareable link for social media, your website, a WhatsApp group, or a QR code. Candidates answer the questions and upload their work.
Every application is graded against the specification automatically, in the order it arrives, whether there are twenty or two hundred.
The strongest have a voice interview with Melon, held against your spec, scored and ranked. You meet the people who made the cut.
What you open, one week after posting the role
Three interviews on your calendar. Two hundred and eleven people assessed and filed without anyone opening a resume.
The pool is permanent and searchable, so the second time you hire the same kind of person you are choosing from people you have already assessed. This is the same AI Screening every candidate goes through on our search mandates, sold on its own.
See AI Screening plans →Melon talks to your staff on WhatsApp while they work. What they say becomes the record, and every morning your managers open the picture instead of chasing it.
They put a fingerprint scanner on the wall. The staff pulled it off the wall.
That is a real conversation with a warehouse, and it is why we do not install anything. Anything forced on a workforce with no reason to cooperate will be beaten by that workforce, usually within a month.
So we ask instead. There is no hardware, no app to download, and nothing to learn beyond sending a WhatsApp message. Individual conversations stay private, and you see what happened and what keeps happening rather than a transcript of what one named person said. A workforce that feels watched defeats any system you buy. One that feels heard uses it.
A Tuesday at a depot
Nobody fills in a form. The shift answers a message on the phone they already carry, and the record on the right builds itself as they do.
The old way, the forklift reaches this desk on Thursday, from somebody else.
Every deployment so far has started with one capability. The executive view is on from week one regardless of how much else is switched on.
Where this shape shows up
For any role we look at the people doing that job right now, in every market that fits the brief. On a recent conglomerate mandate that meant tens of thousands of profiles before we ranked the strongest few dozen.
Seven steps, brief to first interview
We pin down the role, the level, the reporting line, the pay band, and what the person actually has to fix. A loose brief produces a loose shortlist, so this is where we push hardest.
We search the working population that matches the brief rather than a database of people who happen to be applying, then narrow by seniority, sector, geography, and tenure.
The strongest are built into full profiles: career history, current role, and a written view on why this person fits this brief. The ranking is ours, not the machine's.
You get ranked candidates with their profiles and our reasoning, plus a reserve section for strong people slightly outside the brief. You tell us who you want to meet.
Only once you have chosen do we approach anyone. That protects the candidate from being marketed around and protects you from a shortlist already shopped elsewhere.
Every interested candidate goes through the same AI Screening we sell on its own, run against your brief. Nobody reaches your calendar unscreened, and it is never quoted as an extra here.
Scheduled and run through our platform, so you meet a prepared candidate and there is a record of the process rather than a thread of emails. We stay involved through offer and acceptance.
AI Screening is self-serve and monthly, sized for recruiting desks. Your first mandate is free. Workforce contracts run annually, collected quarterly in advance. Search is charged once, on placement.
One to three recruiters. A boutique or a solo operator building a book.
Every plan includes the complete product: unlimited roles and seats, permanent talent pool, notice and consent copy, and bias audit documentation. Beyond included volume, voice interviews are $12 / $9 / $7 and application scores are $0.50 each. Above 600 interviews a month is quoted, with a floor of $5. Creating roles, searching the pool, shortlists, downloads, client presentation, seats, and storage are never billed as extras. Your first mandate is free: unlimited scoring and 25 voice interviews on one live role.
A monthly fee for each person who talks to Melon, a smaller monthly fee for everyone else the system covers, and an annual platform fee. Setup is charged once and scaled to your number of sites.
The executive view sits inside every band, including the smallest. We discount at volume, and we never sell a cheaper version with the intelligence stripped out.
Payable only when the person is hired. No retainer, no engagement fee, and nothing at all if we do not find them. One rate for every mandate, with AI Screening included rather than sold as an upgrade.
Retained is available for confidential or exclusive searches, structured so the fee credits in full against the fifteen per cent.
If we cannot explain it to a five-year-old, we have not understood it well enough to sell it.
Start where it costs least to start
Your first mandate is free: unlimited scoring and twenty-five voice interviews on one live role. If Workforce or a senior search is the conversation you actually need, book the call instead and we will scope it properly.
