"Job searching shouldn't break your spirit. Hiring shouldn't feel like shouting into a void. We built Cordial because every person in this process deserves to be treated like a human being."
— The Cordial Promise
How It Works

A hiring experience
wrapped in manners.

Every step of the process has been redesigned to be more intentional, more respectful, and more effective — for both sides of the equation.

01
📝
Fewer, Better Applications
Applicants are guided to apply only when they're genuinely qualified. Employers receive a smaller, higher-quality pool — not hundreds of auto-submitted résumés to wade through.
Quality over volume
02
⏰
Timeline Transparency
Every employer commits to a response window before posting. Applicants know exactly when they'll hear back — no more waiting in silence and wondering.
No more ghosting
03
💌
Respectful Rejections
When an applicant isn't selected, they receive a thoughtful response — what they were missing and specific guidance on how to strengthen their candidacy for next time.
Constructive feedback
04
🤝
Human Accountability
Employers agree to our Cordial Standards before posting. We hold both sides accountable — applicants prepare thoroughly; employers respond promptly and honestly.
Both sides commit

Cordial
How it should feel
  • ✦Apply to fewer roles — and actually hear back from all of them
  • ✦Employers pay less and get candidates who are genuinely interested
  • ✦Every applicant receives a real response with next steps or feedback
  • ✦Ghosting is prohibited — it's baked into our standards
  • ✦You're a person. The process treats you that way.
  • ✦Every rejection is a stepping stone, not a dead end

A better deal.
For everyone.

Employers pay less than they do on the big platforms. Job seekers pay nothing. That's the model — because charging more for less respect was never the right answer.
