The Screening Shortcut – Why Deep Vetting Saves Time Later

Most recruiters waste time screening candidates in when they should be screening candidates out.

When 250+ applicants apply to a single job posting, how do you find the one that won’t quit in 6 months? By digging deeper upfront.

The Real Time-Waster: Bad Interviews

  • Interviews with unfit candidates cost leaders 3+ hours per round.

  • Misaligned shortlists lead to offer rejections and back-to-square-one scenarios.

  • Poor vetting leads to 30% of hires leaving within 12 months, per Gallup.

Level Up’s Gold-Standard Vetting Process

We go beyond buzzwords and bullet points:

  • Multistage Screening: Initial prequalification, in-depth behavioral interviews, and situational assessments ensure only the best survive.

  • Culture Fit First: We don’t just assess technical skills—we evaluate values, collaboration style, and long-term alignment.

  • Reference Checks That Matter: We dig for performance patterns, not just polite endorsements.

This means you only meet the top 3%, not the top 30 applicants.

With Level Up, every interview counts—because we make sure only the right people get there.
