FoundationOS
Your team’s recruiting workspace
Everything connected
From finding your next hire to their first day.
The whole job, covered
One platform replaces the disconnected tools companies normally piece together to run recruiting.
All connected in FoundationOS. No IT team or separate tools to stitch together.
Explore FoundationOSA simpler recruiting stack
FoundationOS replaces the patchwork of recruiting software and services growing companies typically assemble.
One recruiting platform
Talent search + sourcing + outreach + ATS + hiring workflow + careers + offers + onboarding
No separate LinkedIn Recruiter subscription required
LinkedIn job postings included for FoundationOS-managed roles
LinkedIn job posting distribution is included for roles managed in FoundationOS; other LinkedIn products and scenarios may differ.
More than applicant tracking
Most applicant tracking systems start working only after someone applies. Foundation RPO starts much earlier. Search 75M+ professional profiles, identify relevant Consumer talent, build targeted candidate lists, launch outreach, distribute jobs, manage applicants and move candidates through the entire hiring process, all inside one platform.
The whole hiring workflow
FoundationOSConsumer Talent Intelligence
Foundation RPO doesn’t treat Consumer hiring like every other industry.
FoundationOS understands the companies, categories, career paths and talent relationships that make the Consumer market different. Search and recruit across the Consumer ecosystem using industry-specific intelligence rather than relying only on generic job titles and keywords.

Representative categories, not an exhaustive list. Beauty is one important part of the wider Consumer market we serve.
On-Demand Recruiting Support
Choose FoundationOS for your own team, bring Foundation RPO in to lead a search, or add hands-on recruiting support to the roles that need it. With the combined model, recruiters work in the same intake, candidate history and team workspace, with no starting over.
Platform alone
FoundationOS gives your team a connected Consumer recruiting workspace, from sourcing through offer.
Recruiter-led search
Standalone recruiting support is available where appropriate, with scope and pricing agreed before the engagement begins.
Platform + on-demand support
Add Foundation RPO recruiters to selected roles while your team keeps its platform, candidate history and shared workflow, with extra capacity on your terms.
Not traditional search firm fees.
On-Demand Recruiting Support is a different pricing model from traditional search firms. We agree the support scope and pricing with you before work begins, separately from your FoundationOS subscription.
Built around your hiring team. Foundation RPO recruiters can source, conduct outreach, evaluate candidates and coordinate interviews. Your employer team retains every hiring decision. Support is optional, scoped role-by-role, and separately priced; scope and fees are agreed before work begins.
"They are excellent at finding, screening and connecting the right candidates with the right career opportunities. Honest and transparent pros who focus on long term relationships. That focus makes their opinion and effort much more valuable, because they truly seek right fits for hiring companies and candidates vs. simply trying to close a deal."

For the growing middle
Growing Consumer companies often reach a frustrating middle ground. Spreadsheets, email and disconnected tools no longer work, but enterprise recruiting software is expensive, complicated and often needs several more products to source and recruit candidates.
Foundation RPO gives you the recruiting infrastructure of a much larger company without forcing you to build an enterprise talent acquisition department.

A simpler way to buy
Choose FoundationOS alone, a separately scoped Foundation RPO recruiter-led search where appropriate, or combine the platform and on-demand support.

$1,500 / month, starting
Not traditional search firm fees. On-Demand Recruiting Support is optional, scoped role-by-role and priced separately from FoundationOS. Scope and pricing are agreed before engagement.
An ATS primarily manages candidates after they apply. FoundationOS starts earlier, helping your team find, source and engage Consumer talent, then manage the entire hiring process through offer and onboarding.
Yes. FoundationOS is built for your team to run recruiting directly. When a role needs more support, you can bring in a Foundation recruiter without changing systems or starting over.
