Funnel anatomy
Funnel · Lead Legal Counsel
Tooling
Every tool is built into the funnel and works from one brief instead of living on the side. Below, every module in detail.
The request becomes a structured brief: requirements, salary range, stop factors. Approved before the search starts.
Requirements: M&A, 5+ years
Range: up to 25M, office 5/2
Stop factor: no adjacent roles
Good sourcing starts with queries, not intuition. The system reads the brief and the vacancy description and generates search queries for every channel: Boolean for job boards, X-Ray for LinkedIn and GitHub. Queries are saved on the vacancy: the team searches by one map instead of everyone improvising.
Cold search drowns in routine: you find a strong resume, then copy-paste it into five fields. The parser removes that: a browser extension picks the candidate up from the job board page in one click, with resume and contacts. The candidate lands in the base and the funnel instantly, the source is set, and no phone duplicate is created.
Consort Parser
The candidate needs the role sold to them, and the interviewer needs an assessment plan. Both are generated from the same brief: a pitch for the first touch and a scorecard with target answers and red flags. They never drift apart: what was promised to the candidate is what gets checked at the interview.
“Role #1 in the deal of the year: a team of four lawyers, direct access to partners…”
First touch, invitation, offer: the same letters get written hundreds of times. Templates fill in candidate and vacancy variables by themselves, and sending happens right from the card: email, Telegram, WhatsApp. The whole team keeps one tone of voice.
Subject: {{vacancy_title}} · invitation
Hello, {{candidate_name}}! Let's discuss the role…
Hello, Dmitry! Let's discuss the Lead Legal Counsel role…
Vacancies slip not at interviews but in the waiting between them. Every stage has a deadline and every candidate carries a timer: green, amber, red. Overdue work never hides inside the funnel: it shows on the card and escalates to the manager.
HR interview · SLA 5 days
The narrowest spot in expert hiring: the hiring manager is busy and decisions wait for weeks. Finalists arrive in their in-system cabinet: profile, scores, resume and decision buttons in one place. Feedback is mandatory: the stage does not close without a decision, so candidates never hang.
“Strong candidate, inviting her to meet the team”
What it gives the business
Five changes the team and the business see in the first weeks once expert vacancies run through the system.
Every stage is counted in real time: where candidates are stuck, whose conversion dropped, which vacancy lags behind the department. Decisions rest on numbers.

Profile, scorecard marks and the decision button in one cabinet. An overdue item is highlighted on its own, and the hiring manager sees the queue is theirs.
