What it is

Your team’s collective knowledge is buried. NLOS puts it to work.

The advantage of a good office is its people, its client relationships and its way of running a search. NLOS is the layer that carries all of that into every practice.

  1. Today

    Every search starts near zero.

    The expertise lives in old email threads, one person’s head and a spreadsheet nobody opens.

  2. With NLOS

    The prep work is done for you.

    The kickoff packet, the first outreach draft and the next touch, prepared from your firm’s own history and method.

  3. You

    Make the call.

    The recommendation, the hire and the pitch stay with the recruiter. Drafts wait for you.

  • IT’S NOT Another applicant tracking system.
  • IT’S NOT A chatbot bolted onto one.
  • IT IS The system where your practices, data and agents meet.

How it works

You chat to start. The system does the work.

You The recruiter. You start the chat. You approve what goes out.

Connects to the systems you already run.

NLOS reads them; it never rewrites them.

Each person connects their own accounts.

Included: Implementation and API work where your systems need it, team training and white glove support. Done with you, not handed over as a login.

  • Your ATS Your firm’s own searches and candidates.
  • Your emails and conversations Senders, subjects and times around a search.
  • Your phone calls Who you called, when, and for how long, not recordings.
  • Your transcription notes Notes from calls and meetings that already live with you.
  • Your AI chat prompts Prompts and patterns you already use, kept private to you.
  • Your documents and files Packets, briefs and working files for the search.
  • Your calendars and tasks What is on the day and what still needs a decision.
  • Your sourcing New candidates for a search, delivered to you.

What you get

More time with people.
Higher performing searches.

Owners and recruiters get the sizzle without the admin load: speed, accuracy, quality and performance.

  • More time for relationships. Prep work is ready so the day stays with candidates and clients.
  • Less time on admin. Kickoff packets, first outreach and next touches arrive drafted for review.
  • Better prepared searches. Every search starts from your firm’s method and history, not a blank page.
  • Faster new hire ramp up. New recruiters inherit the office playbook instead of reinventing it.
  • More speed. Work that used to wait on one person’s memory moves in the same conversation.
  • More accuracy. Answers trace back to the call, the document or the record.
  • Higher quality. Stronger data, documents and workflow: the same standard on every search.
  • Higher performance. The firm runs cleaner so placements and follow through improve.

Our promises

Three promises that hold at every layer.

Security

The agent uses your unique information plus NLOS platform capabilities. Data remains private and secure; no other user can access it. You get the power of the collective platform without sharing proprietary data. Your clients and candidates are never training material for anyone else’s model.

Verification

Every answer is checkable. NLOS shows the steps it took. Trace it back to the call, the document or the record.

Control

You make the call. Nothing is sent, posted or changed in your systems without someone approving it.

Exclusively for our recruiting networks.

FAQ

The questions we get asked.

What is NLOS, exactly?

NLOS (Next Level Operating System) is the operating system for a recruiting firm: one chat over your firm’s own searches and candidates, with the NLOS stack underneath doing the work. Ask in plain words and the answer comes back as the work itself: who is waiting on you, where a search stands, the next touch already drafted.

Is NLOS another applicant tracking system?

No. Your ATS (PCR, Crelate, Loxo, Top Echelon and Big Biller are the ones our offices run) stays the system of record. NLOS reads it without rewriting it.

An ATS stores the record. NLOS does the prep work around it: the kickoff packet, the first outreach draft, the next touch, the campaign, the scorecard.

How is NLOS different from hireEZ?

hireEZ is a sourcing tool: it finds people. NLOS runs the whole practice. Sourcing is one thing it does, through a connection that brings new candidates for a search to you.

Underneath, NLOS carries your firm’s method, your office’s data and the network’s playbooks, so the work it prepares is about your searches, not a generic database.

What are NLOS-R, NLOS-O, NLOS-M and NLOS-E?

Four modules of one system, not four products: Recruiting, Operations, Marcom and Education. The platform starts from five roles: Recruiter, Biz Dev, Marcom, Finance and Ops. Each role opens into the room where its work lives.

The same agents and model routing serve all four. What changes is the practice each room is held to: a recruiting workflow follows your search method, a Marcom workflow your firm’s voice.

Does NLOS replace the recruiter?

No. NLOS does the prep work of a search so the recruiter spends the day with people, and then it stops. Drafts wait for a person; nothing is sent, posted or changed without approval.

The judgment (the recommendation, the hire, the pitch) stays human. That is the design.

What happens to our website, LinkedIn and ATS?

Nothing is replaced and nothing is rewritten. NLOS reads the systems you run on and works over the top of them.

Connections are per person and read only what they need: your ATS’s searches and candidates; mail and calendar senders, subjects, times and attendees; who you called and for how long; and new candidates for a search from sourcing.

Are our calls and conversations recorded? Who owns them?

No recordings. The phone connection reads that a call happened, when, and for how long: never recordings, voicemail or texts. Mail and calendar never read message bodies or attachments.

What NLOS holds belongs to your office.

How does an office get access?

Through Starfish Partners, Sanford Rose Associates (SRA) or Dimensional Search (DS). NLOS is not sold as a standalone product.
