Inhouse Services

Your dedicated recruitment team
Why build an internal recruitment department when you can plug ours directly into your studio?

  • Dedicated recruiter embedded in your team
  • Full access to our talent database and tech stack
  • Proactive talent mapping for current and future roles
  • Flexible retainer based on your production cycle
  • Employer brand positioning

Our inhouse approach

number_1

Embed in your team

We place a dedicated StrideQuest recruiter directly inside your studio. Whether that's in your Slack, Teams, daily stand-ups or on-site, we work from inside your operation, not around it.

number_2

Map your talent needs

We map your current and upcoming hiring needs against your production roadmap. By identifying who you need now and who you'll need next, we build a proactive pipeline instead of reacting to open vacancies.

number_3

Own the pipeline

With full access to the StrideQuest talent database and recruitment tech stack, we run your entire hiring process. From candidate outreach to screening, we keep the pipeline moving smoothly and at the right pace.

number_4

Build for the long term

We work with you on budget and resource planning across the short, mid and long term. From ATS implementation and salary benchmarking to strengthening your employer brand or laying the groundwork for your own internal recruitment team.

When to choose Inhouse Services
Inhouse Services turns recruitment from a recurring challenge into a built-in capability.

When you have multiple roles to fill within a limited timeframe, inhouse services offer a dedicated and cost-effective alternative to engaging separate recruiters for each position. One embedded partner owns the full pipeline, so nothing falls through the cracks.

Studios typically choose this model during production scale-ups, when a hiring plan needs structure across multiple sprints. Pricing is a flexible monthly retainer that scales with your production cycle, so you only pay for the capacity you actually need.
