THE GENESIS OF LIGHT RECRUIT

Ari Benet - Founder
As a former recruiter at various agencies, Ari knows firsthand the challenges that startups face when it comes to finding the right talent.
Frustrated by the bureaucracy and red tape that bogged down many agencies, he decided to venture out on his own and open Light Recruit, a boutique agency dedicated to making the hiring process simple, agile, and effective.
​
At Light Recruit, we know that time is of the essence for startups looking to grow their teams. With Light Recruit, you'll have talent in your inbox ready to interview within the first day of partnering together - no need to wait weeks or months to fill critical roles.
However, we don't just focus on speed - we're also committed to quality. Unlike other agencies that bombard clients with tons of random resumes each week, we take a more personalized approach. We'll send you only three or four top candidates each week that you'll most likely want to interview.
​
We work on a contingent basis, so you only pay when we find you the perfect candidate. No hidden fees or upfront costs - just a simple, transparent hiring process that delivers results.
