MangohoundFeatures
Research that wins the job order. A search plan that fills it.
Every Mangohound briefing is built live for one client and one role: their team, their market, where that talent comes from, and the people who fit. Here's everything inside it, and how it travels from your pitch to your recruiter.
Inside every briefing
Five sections, built for one client.
The same five sections, in the same order, in every briefing. Every number says what it's a total of, and every person and move links to the public profile it came from.
The company
The 30-second summary of who they are: what they sell and to whom, funding, history, named customers, and the three things that matter most in this hire.
You open by talking about their business, in their words, before you mention a single candidate.
Their team
Everyone around the role: who holds it today, who sits above and below, the companies each of them came from, and who has already left.
You show them their own hiring pattern, including the hires that didn't last, which their current agency usually can't.
The talent map
Three views of their market. Competitor set: every comparable company we could find with people in this role, each labeled. The Feeder Map: where those competitors hire from, and how long the hires stay. Who's been hiring near them: which companies gained and lost people in this role in their area over the last 18 months.
You walk in knowing who they're competing with on offers right now, and where people are already moving.
Our search plan
Everything above, turned into what you'll do: where you'll look, in order; the titles and experience you'll target; where you'll be extra careful; and the companies you won't approach, like their own customers and partners.
The briefing stops being research and becomes your proposal. The client sees exactly how you'll fill the role.
The 15-person shortlist
Fifteen people who fit, each with the reason they're there. The client marks Yes, Maybe or No, and their answers re-rank the full search. Names stay hidden until you're engaged.
You leave the meeting with the client already reacting to candidates, and your fee protected.
Share it
One briefing, the right version for each person.
A link, not a PDF
Send a link with an access code. The client sees the research and an anonymous shortlist, and marks Yes, Maybe or No on each candidate.
- Candidate names hidden until you're engaged
- Their answers sharpen the search
- Opens and answers tracked
The full briefing
Win the job order and send one link. Your recruiter sees everything from the pitch, with names and a profile link for every candidate.
- No seat needed to open it
- The market, the plan and what the client said
- Day one starts with the whole map
Prepared by you
Every briefing goes out under the name of the AM who built it, and the alerts come straight to them.
- Know when the client opens it
- See their Yes / Maybe / No as it happens
- Call while it's fresh
Built for agency teams
Every AM their own desk. One view of the whole agency.
Your own pipeline
Each AM works from their own list of briefings, with their own monthly allowance, so one busy desk never uses up the team's.
No double pitches
See every briefing your agency has run. Before you brief a prospect, you know if a teammate already did.
Admins run the account
Invite AMs, manage seats and billing in one place. When someone leaves, their briefings stay with the agency.
From the pitch to the placement
Win the pitch. Plan the search. Fill it.
Names shortened. Every move links to the public profile it came from.
Anonymous until you're engaged · every answer sharpens the search.
+ 12 more · your recruiter sees names, the client only ever saw them anonymous.
Working solo, retained or in-house? Same briefing — just skip the handoff. Use it to win the client, or to push back on a hiring manager who only wants “someone from Google.”
Where the data comes from
Ten sources in. One briefing out.
Mangohound's research agents pull from licensed data and the public web, cross-check one source against another, and count real people. You get public profile links, never resold contact data.
