Great teams aren't hired. They're sold out.

We believe hiring should feel like a partnership where teams are made up of people who actually want to be there and businesses are proud to grow with them.

The Problem

Hiring is costing you more than you think.

Candidates ghost you

You invest weeks in interviews. The candidate accepts, then vanishes before joining. The role stays open, and the work piles up.

Cycles keep stretching

Every extra week a critical seat stays empty costs revenue, momentum, and team morale. A delayed hire is expensive. A bad hire is worse.

Doing it in-house spreads you thin

Sourcing, screening, and chasing candidates pulls founders and HR away from the work only they can do.

Self-Hire vs. Expert-Led Hire

Doing it yourself costs more time and money than it looks like.

Here's how hiring it yourself compares to hiring with Be Sold Out — on the two things that matter most: how long it takes, and what it costs.

In-house sourcing, screening & coordination
Avg. Time to Fill43 days

FAQ

Questions we hear often.

What does Be Sold Out do?
We're a boutique recruitment firm offering executive search, permanent recruitment, CXO hiring, talent mapping, and recruitment advisory — entry to CXO, across Sales, Marketing, Operations, HR, Finance, Customer Success, Product, Engineering, and leadership roles. We work with start-ups and enterprises across India, with global hiring support.
How is BSO different from other recruitment agencies?
Most agencies stop at the offer letter. We stay engaged until the candidate joins — weekly follow-ups, counter-offer management, and preboarding support. That's why our offer-to-join ratio is 100%.
What are your fees for employers?
Our success-based search is 8.33% of annual CTC — you pay only when we deliver. We also offer retained search, project hiring, and embedded recruiting. See Engagement Models above for details.
What if the hire doesn't work out?
Every success-based mandate includes a replacement guarantee period. We'll discuss the specifics on your intro call — terms depend on role level.
Do you work with early-stage start-ups?
Yes. We partner with founders from first key hires to leadership builds, and our success-based model means you don't pay until the hire joins.
Can you run confidential searches?
Yes. Replacement hires and sensitive leadership searches are handled with full discretion — several of our clients remain confidential by choice.
Do you charge candidates?
Never. Our services are completely free for candidates. We're paid by the companies we hire for.
How do I apply for a role?
Browse our open roles on the Explore Careers page and apply directly. If nothing fits today, apply through the general interest form — we reach out when a match opens.

Referral FAQ

Before you refer.

How much do I earn?
Reward amounts depend on the role level and engagement model. We'll confirm specifics when you submit a referral or partner enquiry.
When do I get paid?
Once your referral is placed and completes their guarantee period with the client — never before the hire actually joins and stays.
Can I refer more than one person?
Yes — there's no limit. Every successful placement earns its own reward.
What counts as a successful placement?
A referred candidate accepting an offer through Be Sold Out and completing their agreed joining/guarantee period with the client.
