Founded by operators who've lived the challenges of scaling teams at high-growth companies. We understand your pain points because we've experienced them firsthand.
The traditional recruitment industry is broken. We've seen it from the inside – as operators at companies like Unacademy and Relevel, we experienced firsthand the frustration of working with recruiters who didn't understand our business, our culture, or the urgency of our hiring needs.
Most recruitment firms operate like order-takers. They take a job description, post it on job boards, and send you a stack of resumes. They don't understand that hiring isn't just about filling positions – it's about building the foundation for your company's future. Every hire either accelerates your growth or holds you back. There's no middle ground.
We started CareerLeap because we believe hiring should be treated as a strategic function, not a transactional one. We're not here to fill seats – we're here to help you build teams that become competitive advantages.
Our founding team brings deep operational experience from India's leading EdTech companies. At Unacademy, we witnessed the challenges of scaling from a startup to a unicorn – the constant pressure to hire fast while maintaining quality, the difficulty of finding candidates who could thrive in a high-growth environment, and the critical importance of cultural fit in determining long-term success.
At Relevel, we saw how innovative hiring practices could democratize access to opportunities while helping companies find hidden gems. We learned that the best candidates aren't always the ones with the most impressive resumes – they're the ones with the right mindset, skills, and cultural alignment.
This experience taught us that successful hiring requires three things: deep understanding of the business context, systematic processes that scale, and genuine care for both candidates and clients. Most recruitment firms have none of these. We built CareerLeap to have all three.
Our core philosophy is "People First, Systems in Parallel." This means we start with understanding people – their motivations, aspirations, strengths, and cultural fit – and then build systems that scale this human-centered approach.
People First means we don't just look at skills and experience. We dig deeper to understand what drives a candidate, what environment they thrive in, and how they'll contribute to your company's unique culture. We believe that skills can be taught, but attitude and cultural fit are much harder to change.
Systems in Parallel means we've built processes and technology that allow us to maintain this human-centered approach at scale. We use data to identify patterns, technology to streamline workflows, and systematic approaches to ensure consistency – but never at the expense of the human element that makes great hiring possible.
When you work with CareerLeap, you're not just hiring a recruitment firm – you're partnering with operators who understand your challenges because we've lived them. We commit to being an extension of your team, not just a vendor.
We will never send you candidates we wouldn't hire ourselves. We will never prioritize speed over quality. We will never treat your hiring needs as just another transaction. Because we know that the teams you build today will determine your company's trajectory tomorrow.
That's our promise. That's why we exist. That's the CareerLeap difference.
Since our founding, we've focused on building a track record that speaks to our effectiveness as operators, not just recruiters. These numbers represent real companies, real people, and real impact.
*Based on 12 months of operation
Our founding team brings together decades of experience in high-growth operations, talent acquisition, and startup scaling. We've been on both sides of the hiring equation – as operators desperately needing great talent, and as leaders responsible for building world-class teams.
We're supported by an advisory network of successful entrepreneurs, HR leaders, and industry experts who help us stay at the forefront of hiring best practices and market trends. This network includes leaders from companies like Flipkart, Swiggy, Razorpay, and other high-growth Indian companies.
We think like operators, not vendors. Every decision is made with the long-term success of your business in mind.
We believe in honest communication about challenges, timelines, and expectations. No surprises, no false promises.
We'd rather send you three perfect candidates than thirty mediocre ones. Quality is non-negotiable.
We're not here for one-time transactions. We build relationships that grow with your company.
We constantly evolve our processes, technology, and approaches to stay ahead of market changes.
Every candidate and client interaction is guided by empathy, respect, and genuine care for their success.
