Speed is a staffing problem, not a slogan
A shortlist inside a business day only works when the operator is already known. If the sector is thin, the honest answer is no.
Global networks quote days because their inventory is vast and their matching is a queue. A small desk can move faster only when it already knows the operator.
That is not a promise on the homepage. It is a test of the bench. A scraped profile is not a bench. A bench is a set of people we have spoken to, whose conflicts we understand, and who will pick up a note from us on a Tuesday evening.
What a fast shortlist includes
A written shortlist, conflicts noted, and proposed times. It does not include inventing an expert because the sector is thin. If we cannot staff it, we say so. That refusal is part of the service.
