Yes, your roles should have salaries of at least 10LPA.

Unlike competing agencies that charge 10% to 15% of CTC as success fees, Lightning’s success fees varies between 3.49% to 9.99% depending on the role. There is a small monthly retainer to ensure only committed customers use the service.

Yes, we offer a 45 day replacement period.

Like Amazon’s ecommerce service, Lightning offers the best quality service at lowest price due to its sharper focus on Tech roles and massive cost advantage. As an example, Lightning has very low sourcing cost since it has access to Cutshort’s userbase of 20,00,000+ candidates who are already skill-mapped and AI analysed.

We aim for high relevance and joining ratio which means our team spends considerable time and effort to understand your roles and find the best fitting candidates. The nominal monthly retainer ensures only committed customers are using the service.

We've been using Cutshort for over a year now and it has been the single largest source of our tech talent by some margin! In addition, the software tooling they've built allows for a tremendous amount of automation and filtering. The built in tooling for screening automation is fantastic. As a founder initially doing the talent sourcing myself, it was immensely valuable. Now, our talent acquisition team loves it too. They also have very good customer service and fantastic onboarding.
