The Allstar Process: Beyond “Post and Pray” – How We Build Custom Search Blueprints That Actually Deliver

Written by:

Greg Kushner

At Allstar Search Group, we don't believe in luck.

We don’t post and pray.

We don’t rely on passive pipelines.

And we definitely don’t send “just good enough” candidates.


We go after the talent—strategically, thoughtfully, and relentlessly.


We Start Where Others Stop: Going Direct to Market

Most firms stop at the job board.

We start by going direct to candidates—those actively searching, those quietly open, and especially the ones who aren't even thinking about a move until we show them something tailored to their craft, ambitions, and DNA.

We target high-value candidates where they work, connect, and create—whether in niche tech communities, Slack groups, GitHub repos, or through strategic one-on-one outreach.


Tapping Into Trusted Networks & Referrals

Our secret weapon? Relationships. And we're experts in recognizing amazing talent.

We’ve built deep networks across tech, product, data, and AI—and when we enter a market on your behalf, we don’t just scan LinkedIn. We call the people we trust. We mine warm referrals. We tap into alumni circles, peer groups, and technical leaders who know who’s good before the market does.


Listening > Guessing: We Customize, Not Generalize

Every company is different.

Every role is unique.

And every team has nuances that no job description can capture.

That’s why we take the time to truly listen—really listen—to what your team needs in a hire.

Not just the tech stack, but the context:


What are they walking into?

What are the hidden challenges?

What kind of mindset fits your culture?

From there, we custom-build a search blueprint: tone, message, targets, pitch angle. Every step is tailored. Every interaction, intentional.

Iterate Relentlessly – Until It’s Right

Hiring isn't linear.

Markets shift. Hiring teams pivot. Role priorities evolve.

That’s why we don't just “send and hope.”

We chip away. We refine. We recalibrate.


We analyze every round of feedback to fine-tune both the candidate profile and the pitch. We zero in on what resonates—and what doesn’t—until we lock in that perfect blend of skill, experience, and cultural alignment.


The Allstar Difference

It’s easy to say you’re different in recruiting.

Harder to prove it.

Here’s how we back it up:


We go beyond the job post.

We engage talent directly and personally.

We build every search from scratch.

We iterate like product managers.

We treat every hire like a cornerstone decision—because it is.

This is the Allstar Process.

Not sometimes.

Always.
