You stay in control

Worried your boss might find out? Don't be.

We built this for people who can't afford to be public about their plans yet. Your full name, current employer, and contact stay private until you say so.

Anonymous by default

Recruiters only see an anonymous profile — role, city, timeline, salary band, and intro. Full name, current company, email, and phone are only shared with recruiters you approve.

You approve every recruiter

Recruiters can't DM or email you directly. They send a short note, you get one summary email — accept or decline in one click.

Recruiters are vetted

Every recruiter signs in with LinkedIn on a verified work email. New companies are reviewed by us before they see any profiles.

Real moves. Real outcomes.

What happens after you list?

No mystery. No back-and-forth. Four steps.

1

List your profile

90 seconds. LinkedIn-verified. Your full profile is only shared with recruiters you approve.

2

Vetted recruiters discover you

Recruiters sign in with LinkedIn on a work email. They filter by city, role, and timeline.

3

They request an intro

One short note per recruiter. You get one summary email. No DMs, no spam.

4

You accept — contact is shared

Only the recruiters you accept ever see your full name, email, and phone.

Why not just LinkedIn?

Honest comparison. We're not for everyone — we're for people who've actually decided to move back.
