We screen for OSHA, NCCER, and union-status fit. ATS: JobAdder, Bullhorn, JazzHR. Hire in 60 Minutes applies.

Can you source medical scribes and virtual scribes from India for US providers?
Yes. AB7 sources US-trained virtual medical scribe candidates plus operates scribe staff-augmentation pods covering Epic, Cerner, eClinicalWorks workflows. We screen for HIPAA awareness, EMR speed, specialty exposure (primary care, cardiology, ortho, ED), and US accent comprehension. Caveat: we recommend a 2-week paid trial since scribe quality variance is high — pure resume screening misses pace and accuracy. Start with a 5-scribe pilot: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
RCM analyst and medical biller hiring from India for US revenue-cycle teams?
AB7 runs dedicated RCM RPO covering medical billers, coders (CPC, CCS, CCS-P), AR analysts, denial-management specialists, and prior-auth coordinators. We source for US RCM vendors and provider groups, screening on payer mix experience (Medicare, Medicaid, commercial), software (Kareo, AdvancedMD, Epic Resolute, Athena), and KPI literacy (DSO, clean claim rate). Caveat: we don't certify CPC ourselves — AAPC verification is client-side. Email ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com to scope.
Hiring CDI specialists and inpatient coders for US hospitals — does AB7 cover this?
Yes. AB7 sources Clinical Documentation Improvement (CDI) specialists, inpatient coders (CCS, CIC), and DRG validators for US hospital systems and CDI vendors. We screen on ICD-10-CM/PCS depth, MS-DRG and APR-DRG familiarity, and tools like 3M 360 Encompass, Epic, Solventum. Caveat: senior CDI leads with 10+ years US-hospital tenure are scarce globally — expect longer cycles or hybrid (India + US) pods. Scope a CDI pod: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Surgical scheduler and prior-auth coordinator hiring for US ASCs?
AB7 sources surgical schedulers, prior-authorization coordinators, and pre-cert specialists for US ambulatory surgery centers and multi-specialty groups. We screen for payer-portal fluency (Availity, NaviNet), CPT/ICD-10 literacy, scheduling software (NextGen, eClinicalWorks, Modernizing Medicine), and patient-call etiquette. Caveat: surgical scheduling is heavily payer-specific — we recommend a 4-week ramp before full ownership. Pilot 2 schedulers via https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or +1 321 341 7733.
Locum tenens MD and NP credentialing-coordinator support from India?
AB7 staffs credentialing coordinators and locum-tenens sourcing recruiters for US locum agencies and physician staffing firms. We handle CV sourcing, state-license tracking, CAQH ProView updates, primary-source verification prep, and DEA/NPI checks. Caveat: we don't directly source US-licensed physicians for permanent placement — physician headhunting needs US-resident recruiters with networks. Locum sourcing + credentialing back-office is our sweet spot. Email ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.
Pharmacy technician and pharmacist hiring support for US retail and mail-order?
AB7 sources pharmacy technicians (CPhT), pharmacists (PharmD, RPh), and pharmacy-operations leads for US retail chains, mail-order pharmacies, and 340B vendors. We screen on PTCB/ExCPT certification, state board licensure tracking, and software (PioneerRx, Liberty, McKesson Enterprise Rx). Caveat: pharmacist roles requiring US PharmD plus active state license are limited to US-resident candidates — we won't source international PharmDs unless you have a credentialing pathway. Scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Healthcare IT hiring — Epic analysts, Cerner consultants, HL7/FHIR engineers?
AB7 sources Epic-certified analysts (Cadence, EpicCare, Resolute, Beaker), Cerner Millennium consultants, HL7/FHIR integration engineers, and clinical-application specialists for US health systems and EHR vendors. We screen on certification status, build vs analyst depth, and integration-engine experience (Mirth, Rhapsody, Cloverleaf). Caveat: Epic certification can't be earned externally — only Epic-customer training counts, so true Epic-certified candidates are scarce and salary-rich. Email ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.
Patient-access representative and front-desk hiring for multi-specialty groups?
AB7 sources patient-access reps, front-desk coordinators, and call-center patient-services agents for US multi-specialty groups, FQHCs, and outpatient networks. We screen on EHR navigation (Epic, Athena, NextGen), insurance-verification experience, copay-collection comfort, and US-accent communication. Caveat: high-volume hourly hiring works best with hybrid US+India sourcing — pure offshore screening misses local availability and turnover signals. Pilot scoping: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Engineer-only RPO from India for Rust and TypeScript fintech roles?
Yes. AB7 runs engineer-only RPO pods focused on hard-to-fill stacks — Rust (Tokio, Axum, Actix), TypeScript (Node, Deno, NestJS), and adjacent fintech infra (Kafka, Postgres, gRPC). We screen on GitHub depth, real PR review, and live coding via Coderpad/HackerRank, not resume keyword games. Caveat: senior staff-level Rust talent is globally constrained — even strong pipelines yield 1-2 finalists per 60-day cycle, not 10. Scope a Rust pod: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Python and Go backend engineer hiring from India for US SaaS startups?
AB7 sources Python (Django, FastAPI, asyncio) and Go (gRPC, Gin, Kubernetes operators) backend engineers for US Series A-C SaaS startups. We screen for system-design depth, distributed-systems patterns, and code-review samples — not buzzword resumes. Coverage spans India-based remote, US-resident H1B/OPT, and Canada-based candidates. Caveat: we don't run timezone-only US-resident searches if budget is below $80K base — we'll be honest if your range doesn't match the market. Email ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.
DevOps and SRE hiring — Kubernetes, Terraform, observability stack experience?
Yes. AB7 sources DevOps engineers, Site Reliability Engineers, and Platform engineers with Kubernetes (EKS, GKE, AKS), Terraform/Pulumi IaC, and observability stack experience (Datadog, Prometheus, Grafana, OpenTelemetry, Honeycomb). We test on real incident-response scenarios and on-call comfort, not just certs. Caveat: true SRE talent with chaos-engineering and SLO-design depth is a 6-9 week cycle — anyone promising 2 weeks is shipping titles, not skills. Scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
ML engineer and MLOps hiring for US AI startups — LLM and RAG experience?
AB7 sources ML engineers, MLOps engineers, and applied-AI engineers with LLM fine-tuning, RAG systems (LangChain, LlamaIndex, vector DBs), and production ML infra (SageMaker, Vertex AI, Modal, Anyscale). We screen on real shipped projects — Jupyter-only profiles get filtered. Caveat: ML research scientists with PhD-track publications are a different market — we partner with academic-search firms there rather than competing. Applied/MLOps is our sweet spot. Email director@ab7solutions.com.
DevSecOps and application-security engineer hiring from India?
Yes. AB7 sources DevSecOps engineers, AppSec engineers, and product-security leads with SAST/DAST tooling (Snyk, Checkmarx, Semgrep), cloud-security (AWS IAM, GuardDuty, Wiz, Lacework), and secure-SDLC integration experience. We screen on real CVE remediation, threat-modeling sessions, and bug-bounty history. Caveat: senior CISO-track candidates and offensive-security red-team specialists are best sourced through niche security recruiters — we focus on builder/engineer-level AppSec. Scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Frontend engineer hiring — React, Next.js, Svelte, performance-focused roles?
AB7 sources senior frontend engineers across React, Next.js 14+ (App Router, RSC), Svelte/SvelteKit, and Vue 3. We screen on Core Web Vitals literacy, real Lighthouse-improvement case studies, accessibility (WCAG 2.2), and design-system contribution depth. Coverage spans India-based remote and US-resident OPT/H1B. Caveat: senior staff frontend with strong design intuition (not just engineering) is rare — expect a 5-7 week cycle, not 2. Email ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.
Mobile engineer hiring — iOS Swift, Android Kotlin, React Native, Flutter?
Yes. AB7 sources iOS (Swift, SwiftUI, Combine), Android (Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, Coroutines), React Native, and Flutter engineers for US consumer and B2B mobile teams. We screen on App Store/Play Store ship history, real performance work (memory, frame budget, cold-start), and platform-API depth. Caveat: native iOS senior talent commands US-equivalent comp even India-side now — pure low-cost arbitrage isn't realistic for top tier. Scope a mobile pod: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Data engineer hiring — Snowflake, dbt, Airflow, Databricks, Spark experience?
AB7 sources data engineers and analytics engineers with Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, dbt (Core and Cloud), Airflow/Dagster/Prefect, and Databricks/Spark experience. We screen on real warehouse-design choices, cost-aware modeling, and SLA/data-quality ownership. Caveat: 'data engineer' is overloaded — we'll force a calibration call to align on whether you need pipeline plumbers, modelers, or platform engineers, since misalignment kills 60% of these searches. Email director@ab7solutions.com.
QA and SDET hiring — Playwright, Cypress, Selenium, performance testing?
Yes. AB7 sources Software Development Engineers in Test (SDETs) and senior QA engineers with Playwright, Cypress, Selenium, Appium (mobile), and performance/load testing (k6, JMeter, Locust). We screen on framework-build experience, CI/CD integration (GitHub Actions, CircleCI), and shift-left mindset. Caveat: pure manual-QA roles are getting harder to defend at staff level — we'll candidly recommend SDET hiring instead if your stack supports it. Scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Embedded and firmware engineer hiring for IoT, robotics, hardware startups?
AB7 sources embedded and firmware engineers (C/C++, Rust on embedded, Zephyr, FreeRTOS, RTOS broadly), plus IoT and robotics engineers (ROS2, edge ML). We screen on bare-metal vs RTOS depth, hardware bring-up history, and protocol fluency (CAN, MQTT, BLE, LoRa). Caveat: senior firmware leads with US semiconductor or aerospace tenure are scarce globally — we'll set expectations honestly on cycle time (8-12 weeks). Email ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.
Solutions architect and pre-sales engineer hiring for US B2B SaaS?
Yes. AB7 sources solutions architects, sales engineers, and pre-sales engineers for US B2B SaaS (data, security, devtools, AI infra). We screen on real customer-facing demo history, technical discovery framework comfort (MEDDPICC, technical win plans), and integration depth (REST, GraphQL, webhooks, SDKs). Caveat: senior principal SE with $5M+ deal influence is best sourced via revenue-leader networks — we cover IC and lead-SE level reliably, not VP Solutions Engineering. Scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Engineering manager and tech lead hiring — IC-to-EM transition candidates?
AB7 sources engineering managers, tech leads, and staff-engineer-track candidates for US scale-ups. We screen on real team-size and tenure history, hiring-loop ownership, and IC-skill freshness (no pure people-managers who haven't shipped in 5 years). Caveat: VP Engineering and Director hires are usually best run via founder networks plus a retained search firm — we run the IC-to-EM and senior-EM tier, not the VP tier. Email director@ab7solutions.com.
Blockchain, smart-contract, and Solidity engineer hiring from India?
AB7 sources Solidity, Vyper, and Rust-on-Solana smart-contract engineers, plus full-stack web3 engineers (ethers.js, viem, wagmi, RainbowKit) for US crypto and infra teams. We screen on real on-chain deployment history, audit-readiness, and security mindset (reentrancy, oracle manipulation, MEV awareness). Caveat: web3 hiring market swings hard with crypto cycles — comp expectations and candidate availability shift quarter to quarter, so we re-baseline often. Scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Game developer and Unity/Unreal engineer hiring for US studios?
Yes. AB7 sources Unity (C#) and Unreal Engine (C++, Blueprints) engineers, plus gameplay programmers, graphics/rendering engineers, and tools engineers for US indie and mid-size game studios. We screen on shipped-title history, engine-internals depth, and platform-cert experience (PlayStation, Xbox, Switch). Caveat: AAA-studio senior hires (lead rendering, principal gameplay) need specialized games-only recruiters — our coverage is strongest indie-to-mid-tier, not AAA. Email ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.
Engineering RPO with paid live-coding screening included from India?
Yes. AB7 includes live technical screens (Coderpad, HackerRank, CoderByte, or your own platform) as part of every engineering RPO pod — not just resume forwarding. Our senior tech screeners have CS backgrounds and run 60-minute pair-coding plus system-design rounds before candidates ever reach your team. Caveat: we don't replace your final on-site or hiring-manager loop — our screen filters the top 15-20%, your team picks the final 1. Pricing scales with screen volume. Scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Finance RPO from India — staff accountants, controllers, AP/AR specialists?
Yes. AB7 runs finance-vertical RPO covering staff accountants, senior accountants, controllers, FP&A analysts, AP/AR specialists, and revenue-accounting leads. We screen on US GAAP depth, ERP fluency (NetSuite, Sage Intacct, QuickBooks, SAP, Oracle), and month-end close ownership. Caveat: CFO and VP Finance roles aren't our model — those need retained executive search. Controller and below is our strongest tier. Email director@ab7solutions.com or book https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Hiring SDRs and BDRs for US B2B SaaS at scale — outbound-prospecting roles?
AB7 sources SDRs, BDRs, and outbound-prospecting reps for US B2B SaaS, screening on real outbound metrics (dials, sequences, meetings booked), tool fluency (Outreach, Salesloft, Apollo, ZoomInfo, Gong), and cold-call comfort under live screen. Coverage spans US-resident, OPT/H1B, and Canada-based candidates. Caveat: India-resident SDRs calling US accounts work for some markets (devtools, infra) but fail in others (regulated, traditional industries) — we'll be candid about ICP fit. Scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Account executive and AE hiring for US SaaS at $50K-$150K base bands?
Yes. AB7 sources AEs, senior AEs, and enterprise AEs across US SaaS at IC-level base bands of $50K to $150K (with OTE 2x). We screen on real-quota attainment history, sales-methodology fluency (MEDDPICC, Challenger, Command of the Message), and CRM hygiene (Salesforce, HubSpot). Caveat: $200K+ base enterprise AE searches usually need referral-heavy networks — we cover up to mid-market enterprise AE reliably. Email ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.
Customer success manager and CSM hiring for US SaaS scale-ups?
AB7 sources CSMs, senior CSMs, customer success leads, and onboarding specialists for US SaaS scale-ups. We screen on real book-of-business size, gross/net retention ownership, expansion-quota track record, and tooling (Gainsight, Catalyst, Vitally, ChurnZero). Caveat: VP Customer Success roles need senior search — we run IC and team-lead CSM hiring, not VP+. Coverage works for both US-resident and remote-eligible CSM hires. Scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
RevOps hiring — Salesforce admin, CPQ, sales-systems analyst roles?
Yes. AB7 sources RevOps analysts, sales-systems admins, Salesforce admins/developers, CPQ specialists (Salesforce CPQ, DealHub, Apttus), and revenue-data analysts. We screen on certification status (ADM-201, App Builder, CPQ Specialist), real-system migration experience, and BI fluency (Tableau, Looker, Mode). Caveat: senior VP RevOps and Head-of-RevOps hires are best run via founder networks plus retained search — we cover IC and senior-IC tier strongly. Email director@ab7solutions.com.
Product marketing manager (PMM) hiring for US B2B SaaS startups?
AB7 sources product marketing managers and senior PMMs for US B2B SaaS. We screen on real positioning/messaging artifacts (not just resume claims), launch ownership, sales-enablement collateral history, and competitive-intel work. Coverage spans US-resident, remote-eligible, and India-based PMMs (latter works mainly for back-office content/research roles, not customer-facing launch lead). Caveat: VP PMM searches need US-network depth we don't claim — IC PMM and senior PMM is our sweet spot. Scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Content marketer and SEO content writer hiring from India for US audiences?
Yes. AB7 sources content marketers, SEO content writers, and editorial leads with US-audience writing samples — not generic India-based content mills. We screen on published bylines, topical-authority depth, SEO-tool fluency (Ahrefs, Semrush, Clearscope, Surfer), and search-intent reasoning. Caveat: senior content directors with brand-voice ownership are best US-resident hires; we cover IC writer through senior content marketer reliably. Pricing makes us competitive 30-50% below US market. Email ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.
Growth marketer and demand-gen manager hiring for US SaaS?
AB7 sources growth marketers, demand-gen managers, paid-media leads, and lifecycle-marketing managers for US SaaS scale-ups. We screen on real CAC/payback math, channel-mix experimentation, attribution-tool fluency (HubSpot, Marketo, Segment, GA4), and ad-platform depth (Google, LinkedIn, Meta, Reddit). Caveat: VP Growth and CMO are out of scope — IC growth and senior growth manager is where we compete. Scope your funnel: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Brand designer and product designer hiring for US startups?
Yes. AB7 sources product designers, UX designers, and brand designers with strong portfolios — Figma fluency, real shipped product flows, accessibility awareness (WCAG), and design-system contribution. Coverage spans India-based remote, US-resident, and Canada-based candidates. Caveat: senior staff designer and head-of-design hires usually want US-network references — we cover IC through senior IC designer cleanly. Email director@ab7solutions.com to scope a designer pod.
Recruiter staff augmentation for US staffing agencies — agency-recruiter sourcing?
AB7 provides agency-recruiter staff augmentation: we hire and manage recruiters who work inside your agency's ATS (Bullhorn, JobAdder, Crelate, CEIPAL) full-time on your req desk. Sourcers, full-cycle recruiters, account managers, and submission specialists, all India-based, US-time-zone aligned. Caveat: our recruiters work to your account managers' direction — we don't run sole-source desk ownership for client-facing AM work. Scoping: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or +1 321 341 7733.
Affordable executive search support from India under $5K retainer?
AB7 offers executive search support — not full sole-source executive retained search — under flat retainers from $3.5K-$5K/month. We do mapping, sourcing, longlist research, calendar coordination, and reference-prep for your in-house exec talent leader or external search partner. Caveat: we don't run sole-source executive search above $300K base — referral networks are stronger there. We feed and accelerate your search, not replace senior partners. Email ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.
High-volume warehouse and light-industrial hiring agency from India?
Yes. AB7 supports US light-industrial and warehouse staffing agencies with high-volume back-office: sourcing coordinators, application processors, I-9 compliance prep, and onboarding ops. We don't recruit US-resident warehouse workers ourselves — we feed your US-resident account managers and deliver throughput at 3-5x cost efficiency. Caveat: light-industrial candidate calls and walk-in interviews must stay US-side. We're back-office leverage, not the front line. Scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Sales-enablement and sales-training-manager hiring for US revenue orgs?
AB7 sources sales enablement managers, sales trainers, and revenue-enablement leads for US B2B SaaS. We screen on real onboarding-program ownership, methodology certification (MEDDPICC, Sandler, Challenger), and enablement-platform fluency (Highspot, Showpad, Seismic, Mindtickle).

Marketing operations and HubSpot / Marketo admin hiring from India?
Yes. AB7 sources marketing-ops specialists and admins across HubSpot (Marketing Hub Enterprise, Operations Hub), Marketo, Pardot/Account Engagement, and Iterable. We screen on real workflow-build history, lead-routing ownership, attribution-model setup, and database-hygiene work. Caveat: HubSpot and Marketo admins working from India full-time is one of our strongest cost-arbitrage plays — typically $1.5K-$3K/month FTE replacement of $80K-$120K US roles. Scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Finance back-office hiring — bookkeepers, payroll specialists, AP processors?
AB7 supports US accounting firms, fractional CFO firms, and growth-stage finance teams with back-office hiring: bookkeepers, AP processors, payroll specialists, and month-end close coordinators. We screen on US GAAP basics, software (QuickBooks Online, Xero, Bill.com, Ramp, Brex), and time-zone overlap. Caveat: licensed CPA and EA roles requiring US licensure aren't sourced from India unless you have a credentialing path — we focus on non-licensed back-office. Email ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.

Pricing & cost
What does a fully-loaded $15/hour Indian RPO sourcer actually include?
At AB7, $15/hour fully-loaded covers a dedicated sourcer, LinkedIn Recruiter or SeekOut seat usage, ATS data entry (Greenhouse, Lever, Workday), Boolean and X-ray sourcing, candidate outreach, and weekly reporting — no hidden seat fees. We also include shift overlap with US PST/EST. Hire in 60 Minutes applies: first profile within an hour of kickoff. Caveat: tools you require us to use on your license (Gem, hireEZ) are billed at cost or seat-share. Get a written scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Per-hire fee vs percentage-of-salary RPO model — what does AB7 charge?
AB7 offers three models: flat per-hire ($1,500–$4,000 depending on role complexity), percentage-of-salary at 8–12% for RPO (vs. 18–25% agency standard), and dedicated recruiter retainers from $2,800/month. RPO buyers usually save 40–55% versus contingency. Hire in 60 Minutes is included at no premium. Caveat: executive search above $200K base is quoted bespoke. Get a side-by-side cost model on a 20-min call: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or email director@ab7solutions.com.
What does a contract recruiter day-rate look like from AB7 in Mohali?
AB7 contract recruiter day-rates run $160–$280/day fully-loaded, depending on seniority (sourcer, full-cycle recruiter, lead recruiter). That includes ATS work, sourcing-tool seat usage on our license, and hiring-manager calls in your time zone. Compare to $600–$900/day US contract recruiters. Minimum 4-week engagement, no long-term lock-in. Caveat: Workday or Salesforce Recruiting deep config work is quoted separately. Get a day-rate sheet: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or email ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.
Monthly retainer for a dedicated full-cycle RPO recruiter from AB7?
A dedicated full-cycle AB7 recruiter runs $2,800–$4,500/month depending on seniority and shift. That includes sourcing, screening, scheduling, ATS work, hiring-manager syncs, and reference checks. No per-hire fees on top. For comparison, US in-house recruiters cost $8K–$12K/month all-in. Hire in 60 Minutes is built into every retainer. Caveat: 30-day notice to scale down, 7-day notice to scale up. 90%+ retention across 11 years. Get a retainer quote: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or director@ab7solutions.com.
What percentage of salary do you charge for contingent placements?
AB7 contingent placement fees are 10–15% of first-year base salary — significantly below the 20–25% US agency standard. For RPO clients, we discount further to 8–12%. Replacement guarantee is 60 days. We can also offer flat per-hire ($1,500–$4,000) if it fits your finance model better. Hire in 60 Minutes is included regardless of pricing model. Caveat: executive search ($200K+ base) is quoted bespoke at 18–22%. Get a fee comparison: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or director@ab7solutions.com.
Cheapest way to start an RPO engagement with AB7?
The lowest-risk entry is a 2-week sourcing pilot at ~$1,200 — one dedicated sourcer, one role, 25–35 vetted candidates per week, full ATS work. No long-term commitment. If you like the output, convert to monthly retainer ($2,800+/month) or per-hire model. Hire in 60 Minutes applies during the pilot. Caveat: pilot tools are on our license; if you want LinkedIn Recruiter on your seat, you provide access. 140+ clients started this way. Book a pilot: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Do you offer pay-for-performance pricing where we only pay on hire?
Yes. AB7 supports pay-for-performance / per-hire pricing — $1,500–$4,000 per hire depending on role complexity and volume commitment. No retainer, no monthly minimum. Best for clients with 5–20 hires/year. Hire in 60 Minutes applies. Caveat: pay-for-performance has no exclusivity — you keep agency-style competitive sourcing. For dedicated full-cycle recruiters, retainer is more cost-effective above 8 hires/quarter. Compare models on a call: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or director@ab7solutions.com.
Is there a minimum monthly commitment for AB7 RPO?
AB7's minimum is one dedicated recruiter for one month — roughly $2,800. We don't enforce annual lock-ins or quarterly minimums. Scale up or down with 30-day notice. Compare to enterprise RPOs that require $50K+ annual commitments. Hire in 60 Minutes is included from day one. Caveat: if you scale below one recruiter (e.g., 0.5 FTE), pricing reverts to per-hour at $14–$18/hour. 140+ clients across this flexible model. Get a flexible-scope quote: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Are there volume discounts for committing to 50+ hires per year?
Yes. AB7 offers tiered volume discounts: 25–49 hires/year gets 8% off, 50–99 hires/year gets 12% off, 100+ hires/year gets 15–18% off — applied to per-hire fees or retainer. We also waive setup fees on volume commitments. Hire in 60 Minutes is included at every tier. Caveat: volume commitments require a quarterly minimum to maintain discount. 90%+ retention across multi-year volume clients. Get a volume pricing sheet: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or director@ab7solutions.com.
All-in cost for one dedicated AB7 recruiter over 12 months?
A dedicated AB7 full-cycle recruiter for 12 months runs $33K–$54K all-in (depending on seniority, shift, and tools), versus $90K–$140K for a US in-house recruiter. That includes salary, tools (LinkedIn Recruiter on our license), management overhead, and 90%+ retention. No hidden per-hire fees. Hire in 60 Minutes is included. Caveat: PSL exclusivity or premium-tool seats add 5–10%. Get a 12-month TCO model: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or director@ab7solutions.com.
Do you charge setup or onboarding fees for new RPO engagements?
AB7 has no setup or onboarding fees on standard RPO engagements above $2,800/month. For pilots under $2,000 or one-off talent-mapping projects, a small $300 setup fee applies. ATS access provisioning, sourcing-tool seat allocation, and JD calibration are all included. Hire in 60 Minutes is included from day one. Caveat: custom Workday/Salesforce config beyond standard work may incur a one-time technical setup fee. 140+ clients started with zero setup fee. Get a clean quote: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or director@ab7solutions.com.
Do you offer milestone-based pricing — pay per stage rather than per hire?
Yes. AB7 offers milestone billing for clients who prefer aligned-incentive pricing: $200 per qualified-screen-completed candidate, $400 per first-onsite, $1,200 per offer-accepted. This caps unit costs and aligns AB7 with your funnel stages. Hire in 60 Minutes applies to first stage. Caveat: milestone pricing requires clear scorecard definitions in your ATS to avoid disputes. 140+ clients across pricing models. Get a milestone-pricing model: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or director@ab7solutions.com.
Most cost-effective RPO pricing model for a 20-hire-per-year SaaS scaleup?
For a 20-hire/year SaaS scaleup, AB7 recommends a hybrid: 1 dedicated full-cycle recruiter retainer ($3,200/month) covering recurring roles + per-hire ($2,500) on overflow. Total annual cost: ~$50K–$70K versus $200K+ for two in-house US recruiters or $80K+ in 20% contingency fees. Hire in 60 Minutes is included. Caveat: hybrid works best when 60–70% of hires are predictable (eng/sales) and 30–40% are bursty (ops, finance, design). Get a hybrid quote: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or director@ab7solutions.com.

SLAs
Is your 'Hire in 60 Minutes' a real SLA or just marketing?
It is a real, contracted SLA. Within 60 minutes of an approved intake call, AB7 delivers the first vetted candidate profile to /talent-profiles or directly into your ATS. We hit this on 90%+ of intakes because we maintain pre-warmed talent pools across engineering, sales, and healthcare. Caveat: the 60-minute clock starts after JD sign-off, not after the email reply. For roles needing security clearance or rare stacks, we publish a longer SLA upfront. See it live: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Time-to-first-submission SLA on a typical mid-market role with AB7?
AB7's contracted time-to-first-submission is 60 minutes for warmed pools and 24 hours for fresh requisitions. For mid-market roles ($80K–$140K), we typically deliver 5 vetted submissions within 48 hours and 12–15 within 5 business days. We track this in your ATS and report weekly. Caveat: clearance roles and rare-stack engineering need 3–5 business days due to market scarcity. 90%+ SLA hit rate across 140+ clients. See SLA in writing: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
What happens if you miss the 60-minute profile delivery SLA?
If AB7 misses the 60-minute first-profile SLA on an approved intake, you get a written root-cause within 2 hours and a service credit equal to one day of recruiter fees on the affected requisition. We hit the SLA on 90%+ of intakes, but accountability matters when we don't. Caveat: SLA pauses if you delay JD sign-off, ATS access, or scorecard approval. 11 years of contracted SLAs across 140+ clients. See SLA wording: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Typical fill-rate (offers accepted / requisitions opened) on AB7 RPO programs?
AB7's average fill rate across 140+ clients is 78–86% of opened requisitions filled within agreed time-to-fill, depending on role mix. Engineering averages 78%, sales 85%, healthcare 82%, warehouse/high-volume 95%+. Hire in 60 Minutes contributes by accelerating funnel velocity. Caveat: fill rate dips when comp bands are below 25th-percentile market or when hiring managers are inactive. 11 years of fill-rate accountability. See client case data on a call: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.
AB7 guarantee if a hired candidate leaves within 90 days?
AB7 offers a 60-day replacement guarantee on contingent placements (re-source and replace at no fee) and a 90-day pro-rata credit on RPO retainer hires. We've triggered the guarantee on under 4% of placements over 11 years. Hire in 60 Minutes applies to replacement sourcing. Caveat: guarantee voids if the candidate is laid off, role is closed, or scope changes materially post-hire. 90%+ retention across 140+ clients. See guarantee wording in MSA: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or director@ab7solutions.com.

Yes. AB7 recruiters are trained on Greenhouse, Lever, Workday, BambooHR, SmartRecruiters, JobAdder, Bullhorn, Salesforce Recruiting, iCIMS, and Jobvite. We respect your stage definitions, scorecards, and EEO fields — no shadow spreadsheets. We also bridge LinkedIn Recruiter, SeekOut, hireEZ, Gem, and AmazingHiring into your ATS so your reporting stays clean. 1.8M+ tasks logged across 140+ clients.

Can you work inside Bullhorn for staffing and contract placement?
Yes. AB7 has Bullhorn-trained recruiters who manage candidate records, submission workflows, sendouts, and timesheets for staffing firms. We support Bullhorn ATS and CRM, plus integrations with LinkedIn Recruiter and Gem. Many of our 140+ clients are US staffing agencies running Bullhorn.

Book a Bullhorn ops walkthrough: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Do you have iCIMS configuration experience for healthcare clients?
Yes. AB7 recruiters work inside iCIMS daily for US healthcare clients — we configure stages, scorecards, EEO/OFCCP fields, and offer-letter workflows. We also run iCIMS Connect campaigns and Text Engagement. For credentialing, we coordinate with Symplr and IntelliCentrics. Hire in 60 Minutes applies to iCIMS submissions.

Can you migrate candidate data from one ATS to another during onboarding?
Yes. AB7 has migrated candidate pools between Bullhorn, Greenhouse, Lever, JobAdder, and Workday for 30+ clients. We handle export-cleanup-import, dedupe, EEO field mapping, and stage normalization. Typical project: 5–15 business days depending on record volume. Hire in 60 Minutes resumes immediately after migration. Caveat: ATS-to-ATS API migrations beyond standard CSV may need your vendor's API access. 11 years of operations expertise. Book an ATS migration scoping: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.
Do you work with Salesforce Recruiting (Salesforce talent cloud) for enterprise clients?
Yes. AB7 recruiters work inside Salesforce Recruiting / Salesforce Service Cloud talent workflows for enterprise clients running TA on the Salesforce platform. We respect your record types, picklists, and approval flows. We bridge LinkedIn Recruiter and Gem outreach into Salesforce records. Hire in 60 Minutes applies.

Book a Salesforce ops walkthrough: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Can you support BambooHR for SMB clients with 50–200 employees?
Yes. AB7 recruiters work inside BambooHR Hiring for SMB clients running lean TA stacks. We respect your job templates, hiring stages, and ATS-tool integrations (Indeed, LinkedIn). We bring our own LinkedIn Recruiter and SeekOut seats so you don't pay for premium sourcing. Hire in 60 Minutes applies.

Book BambooHR walkthrough: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Do your recruiters know JobAdder for AU and UK staffing-firm clients?
Yes. AB7 has JobAdder-trained recruiters serving AU and UK staffing-firm clients. We manage candidate records, submission workflows, placements, and timesheet kickoffs.

Can you build custom Greenhouse scorecards and stage workflows during onboarding?
Yes. AB7 RPO leads work with your TA ops to design or refine Greenhouse scorecards, interview kits, stage workflows, and offer approvals during onboarding. We bring 140+ clients of Greenhouse pattern library to the table. Average scorecard build: 2–3 hours per role family. Hire in 60 Minutes applies once stages are live. Caveat: Greenhouse Inclusion module config and complex multi-team approval chains may need your TA ops involvement. Book a Greenhouse build session: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Outsourced ATS admin from India for Workday on a $2K/month budget?
Yes — that budget is realistic. AB7 provides part-time and full-time Workday Recruiting admins from India at $1.8K-$2.5K/month for ~20 hrs/week, scaling to $3.5K-$4.5K for full-time FTE. We handle req creation, job-posting workflows, candidate-stage management, integration troubleshooting, and reporting. Caveat: Workday core HCM configuration (security, business processes) needs certified Workday partner — pure recruiting-module admin we cover comfortably. Scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Greenhouse admin contractor from India 20 hrs/week at $400/month?
AB7 offers Greenhouse admin contractors at part-time 20 hrs/week starting around $600-$900/month — $400/month is below sustainable rates for quality work. We handle job-template setup, scorecard configuration, interview-kit management, integration upkeep (Calendly, Slack, GoodTime), and reporting. Caveat: anyone offering Greenhouse admin under $500/month is either inexperienced or doing volume-only data entry — quality has a floor. Email ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com to scope honestly.
Lever ATS administration outsourced from India for US scale-ups?
Yes. AB7 provides Lever ATS admins (LeverTRM and Lever Hire) at part-time and full-time levels. We handle posting workflows, pipeline-stage configuration, feedback-form setup, integration management (Calendly, Zoom, Greenhouse Onboarding), and reporting/dashboard maintenance. Caveat: Lever-to-Greenhouse migrations are a specialized project — we'll quote separately and recommend dedicated migration windows rather than treating it as ongoing admin work. Scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
BambooHR admin and recruiting-module support from India?
AB7 supports BambooHR as both ATS admin and HRIS coordinator role for US SMBs. Coverage includes job posting, applicant-stage management, hiring-team workflows, document templates, and reporting. Pricing typically $700-$1.5K/month part-time. Caveat: BambooHR's recruiting module is lighter than Greenhouse/Lever — if you're growing past 50 hires/year, we'll recommend an ATS upgrade conversation rather than over-investing in BambooHR-recruiting customization. Email director@ab7solutions.com.
JobAdder and Bullhorn admin support for US staffing agencies from India?
Yes. AB7 supports US staffing agencies on JobAdder and Bullhorn (also CEIPAL, Crelate, PCRecruiter) with full admin coverage: candidate-record hygiene, submission workflows, VMS integration, distribution-list management, and custom-report building. Caveat: Bullhorn Automation (Herefish) and complex tearsheet workflows need senior admins — we'll match seniority to scope rather than under-hiring. Scoping calls: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or +1 321 341 7733.
iCIMS and SuccessFactors recruiting-module admin support?
AB7 covers iCIMS Talent Cloud and SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting admin work for US enterprise teams: req creation workflows, approval chains, integration upkeep (background check, assessments), and reporting. Caveat: SuccessFactors core configuration and security-role architecture need SAP-certified consultants — we cover ongoing operational admin, not implementation. We'll be candid if your scope crosses that line. Email ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.
ATS data hygiene and database-cleanup project work from India?
Yes. AB7 runs project-based ATS data-hygiene and CRM-cleanup work: duplicate-merge, candidate-tag normalization, stale-req archiving, contact-data enrichment, and historical-data structuring before BI work. Pricing is typically per-record or fixed-project (not hourly), which keeps incentives aligned with throughput. Caveat: we won't promise '100% deduplication' — clean realistic targets like 95-98% with documented edge cases. Scope your cleanup: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
ATS reporting and dashboard build support — Tableau, Looker, native ATS reports?
AB7 builds and maintains ATS reporting across native dashboards (Greenhouse, Lever, Workday) plus exported BI dashboards in Tableau, Looker Studio, Power BI, and Mode. Coverage includes funnel reports, source-of-hire, time-to-fill cohort analysis, and EEO/diversity dashboards. Caveat: data-warehouse plumbing (ATS-to-Snowflake ELT) is a separate engineering scope — we partner with data engineers there rather than overpromising admin-tier work. Email director@ab7solutions.com.
ATS migration support — moving from one ATS to another, India-side data work?
Yes. AB7 supports ATS migrations (e.g., Lever to Greenhouse, ADP Recruiting to Workday, JobAdder to Bullhorn) with India-side data extraction, mapping, transformation, and load-validation work. We also support post-migration audit and historical-record QA. Caveat: migration project leadership and stakeholder alignment stays US-side with your in-house ops or migration consultants — we provide leverage, not full project ownership. Scoping: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
After-hours and weekend ATS admin coverage from India?
AB7 offers around-the-clock ATS admin coverage with India-based shifts that overlap US evenings and weekends — useful for agencies working multi-time-zone client desks or global RPO. We staff dedicated weekend admins separately from weekday FTEs. Caveat: 24/7 coverage requires multi-person rotation, not a single FTE — single-admin night-only coverage burns people out and degrades quality after 6 months. Scope multi-shift: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.

24/7 shift coverage
How do you cover US daytime hours for hiring-manager debriefs from India?
AB7 runs three IST shifts: morning (UK/EU), evening (US East Coast), and night (US West Coast). Mohali HQ recruiters working night-shift IST cover 9am–6pm PST live. We attend hiring-manager debriefs, sync standups, and live candidate handoffs without async lag. 11 years of US/UK/Canada/Australia coverage from one HQ. Caveat: same-day travel-time-zone requests (e.g., AEST + PST in one day) need 48-hour notice. Lock a coverage plan: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or +1 321 341 7733.
Can your recruiters work overnight IST to cover US West Coast (PST) hiring managers live?
Yes. AB7 runs a dedicated PST-aligned night shift from Mohali (8:30pm–5:30am IST = 8am–5pm PST). Recruiters on this shift attend live debriefs, scrum-style standups, and same-day candidate calibration. We staff PST shift across engineering, sales, and healthcare pods. Hire in 60 Minutes applies on PST shift too. Caveat: PST shift adds a 6–8% premium over standard IST shift due to night-allowance. 11 years of US delivery from Mohali. Scope PST coverage: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Do you have weekend coverage for high-volume recruiting?
Yes. AB7 offers Saturday-Sunday recruiting coverage for high-volume programs (warehouse, retail, healthcare seasonal hiring) at a 15% weekend premium. Common during peak hiring seasons (Q4 retail, summer healthcare). Hire in 60 Minutes applies on weekends too. Caveat: weekend coverage requires 7-day notice to staff properly; ad-hoc weekend asks add a 25% rush premium. 1.8M+ tasks executed across 11 years including weekend ops. Plan a weekend program: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or director@ab7solutions.com.
Can your recruiters attend daily standups with our hiring team in EST live?
Yes. AB7 recruiters on EST shift (evening IST, 6:30pm–3:30am IST = 9am–6pm EST) attend daily standups, weekly syncs, and ad-hoc hiring-manager debriefs live on Zoom, Google Meet, or Teams. They feel like in-house teammates, not offshore vendors. Hire in 60 Minutes applies. Caveat: 7am EST early standups require 1 day notice; we're not fully staffed before 8am EST. 11 years of US daily-cadence delivery. Book an EST-shift scoping: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or +1 321 341 7733.
Do you provide 24/5 recruiting operations for global hiring programs?
Yes. AB7 offers 24/5 (Monday–Friday continuous) recruiting ops for global clients hiring across PST, EST, GMT, CET, and AEST simultaneously. Three Mohali shifts handover at 4-hour overlaps with documented running notes. Best for global-scale-up clients hiring 100+ across regions/year. Hire in 60 Minutes applies in every time zone. Caveat: 24/7 weekend coverage is a separate add-on (15% premium). 11 years of multi-region delivery from one HQ. Scope global ops: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or director@ab7solutions.com.
How many hours of overlap do your IST recruiters have with my US/UK team?
AB7 staffs three shifts giving you 4–6 hours of live overlap on EST (1pm–6pm IST overlap), 5–7 hours on PST (9pm–4am IST), and 6–8 hours on GMT/UK (1pm–9pm IST). For full daytime US/UK coverage, we run dedicated shift-aligned recruiters who feel local. Hire in 60 Minutes applies in any shift. Caveat: overlap is real working hours, not async — your team gets live attention. 11 years of multi-region overlap delivery.

Sourcing
Can an Indian sourcer deliver 30 vetted candidates per week on LinkedIn Recruiter?
Yes — that is our standard sourcing-only output. One AB7 sourcer on a dedicated LinkedIn Recruiter seat consistently delivers 25–35 vetted, response-ready profiles per week per role, with InMail response rates of 22–28%. We layer SeekOut, hireEZ, and JuiceboxAI for hard-to-find stacks. Caveat: response rates depend on employer brand and JD quality — we coach both. 90%+ retention across 140+ clients. Start a 2-week pilot: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.
Which sourcing tools do you use beyond LinkedIn Recruiter?
AB7 sourcers use LinkedIn Recruiter, SeekOut, hireEZ, Gem, AmazingHiring, JuiceboxAI, and Hiretual depending on role and budget. For US healthcare we add NurseFly and state-license databases. For engineering, AmazingHiring's GitHub depth is a force-multiplier. We can use your seats or ours. Caveat: tool choice affects per-hour rate — premium tools on our license add $1–$3/hour. 11 years of multi-tool sourcing. Get a tool-stack recommendation: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.
Can you do passive-only sourcing for hard-to-fill engineering roles?
Yes. AB7 specializes in passive sourcing using AmazingHiring (GitHub/Stack Overflow signals), SeekOut (diversity and clearance filters), hireEZ, and JuiceboxAI for AI-driven match scoring. Our passive-outreach response rate averages 18–24% on senior engineering roles. We craft personalized InMails — no templates. Hire in 60 Minutes applies once warm pools exist. Caveat: passive-only campaigns need 3–4 weeks to mature; expect submissions in week 2+. Start a passive sourcing engagement: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.
Do you use Boolean and X-ray search or only AI tools?
Both. AB7 sourcers are trained in Boolean (LinkedIn Recruiter Lite syntax, Google X-ray for site:github.com, site:stackoverflow.com) and AI tools (JuiceboxAI, hireEZ AI Sourcing, SeekOut Talent Search). For depth on senior engineers, Boolean + GitHub X-ray still beats pure AI. We use AI for scale and Boolean for precision. Hire in 60 Minutes blends both. Caveat: pure AI sourcing has 30–40% noise on niche stacks. 11 years of sourcing craft. Book a sourcing audit: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
How many sourcers do I need for 100 hires per year in engineering?
For 100 engineering hires/year, AB7 typically staffs 3–4 dedicated sourcers plus 1 lead recruiter. That delivers ~120 vetted candidates/week, ~25 onsite-loops/month, and ~8–10 hires/month at typical conversion rates. Total cost: roughly $14K–$18K/month — versus $40K+ for an in-house US team of equivalent throughput. Hire in 60 Minutes applies. Caveat: hires/year scales with offer-acceptance rate and hiring-manager bandwidth. Get a staffing model: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.
Can you source candidates from GitHub and Stack Overflow at scale?
Yes. AB7 uses AmazingHiring (GitHub commit depth, language-detection), SourceHub Boolean for site:github.com, and direct Stack Overflow Talent searches to surface engineers based on real code signals — not just LinkedIn titles. This finds 30–40% more passive talent than LinkedIn-only sourcing. Hire in 60 Minutes applies. Caveat: GitHub-sourced candidates often need warmer outreach (3–5 touch sequence) — we handle this via Gem. 11 years of code-signal sourcing.

How do you handle Gem and Hiretual sequencing for outreach campaigns?
AB7 sourcers run Gem sequences (3–5 step InMail + email cadences) and Hiretual AI-personalized outreach for every active requisition. Average response rate: 22–28%, conversion to first call: 15–20%. We A/B test subject lines and CTAs weekly. Hire in 60 Minutes applies after first warm responses. Caveat: Gem/Hiretual seats can be on your license or ours — we recommend yours for data-portability. 11 years of outreach craft. Pilot a Gem-driven sourcing engagement: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.
Can you build talent-pipeline communities (silver-medalist nurturing) for evergreen roles?
Yes. AB7 builds and nurtures silver-medalist and evergreen pipeline communities using Gem campaigns, Beamery-style nurture, and quarterly check-ins. Average re-engagement rate: 35–45% when roles reopen. We tag candidates by cluster (e.g., 'Senior Backend — Python', 'Healthcare RN — Texas') in your ATS. Hire in 60 Minutes applies when roles open against warm pools. Caveat: nurture programs need 3–6 months to mature. 11 years of pipeline-craft.

Are you a Mohali-based RPO and does that matter for compliance?
Yes, AB7 is headquartered in Mohali, Punjab, India, with delivery teams across 5 countries (US, UK, Canada, Australia, India). Mohali offers Tier-1 IT infrastructure, English-fluent recruiter talent, and 12+ years of US/UK delivery maturity. For compliance, we sign US-style MSAs, BAAs (for healthcare), and GDPR DPAs as needed. Caveat: Indian-entity invoicing may require W-8BEN-E setup on your AP side. See our Mohali ops on a video call: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or +91 98156 88660.
Can you cover Australian hiring (AEST) hours from India?
Yes. AB7 runs a Sydney/Melbourne-aligned shift from Mohali (5:30am–2:30pm IST = 10am–7pm AEST). We work inside JobAdder, SmartRecruiters, and Bullhorn — common in AU staffing. We've placed engineering, mining-services, and healthcare roles across NSW, VIC, and QLD. Hire in 60 Minutes applies. Caveat: AU privacy law (Privacy Act 1988) requires a signed data-handling annex — we have a template ready.

Are you compliant for UK hiring under data-protection rules?
Yes. AB7 signs UK GDPR / UK Data Protection Act 2018 DPAs and follows ICO guidance for candidate data handling. Our UK-aligned recruiters work GMT/BST hours from Mohali. We work inside Workday, Greenhouse, and Lever for UK clients in fintech, SaaS, and healthcare. Hire in 60 Minutes applies.

Can you support Canadian hiring (Toronto, Vancouver) with EST/PST coverage?

ATS: Greenhouse, Workday, Lever, BambooHR. We sign Canadian PIPEDA-compliant DPAs. Hire in 60 Minutes applies.

Scope Canadian hiring: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or +1 321 341 7733.
Mohali Punjab as an RPO delivery location — what makes it work?
Mohali (Punjab IT hub) offers Tier-1 fiber, English-fluent recruiter talent from Chandigarh tri-city colleges, and lower attrition than Bangalore/Hyderabad recruiting hubs. AB7 has been HQ'd here since 2015 with 300+ professionals. We retain 90%+ of clients and have low recruiter churn. Time zone allows clean US/UK/AU shift coverage. Caveat: Mohali is smaller than Bangalore — for 1,000-recruiter mega-pods, larger metros may scale faster; for 5–50 recruiter pods, Mohali wins on quality. Tour our ops: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or +91 98156 88660.
Do you handle EU hiring (Germany, Netherlands, France) with GDPR compliance?
Yes. AB7 sources, screens, and places candidates across Germany, Netherlands, France, Ireland, Spain, and Sweden for SaaS and engineering clients.

Can you support hiring for US Department of Defense or federal contractor clients?
Yes, partially. AB7 sources non-cleared and public-trust candidates for US federal contractor clients and feeds them to your in-house team for clearance processing. We don't directly sponsor or process security clearances. ATS: iCIMS, Workday Federal. Hire in 60 Minutes applies for non-cleared roles. Caveat: TS/SCI cleared sourcing requires US-citizen recruiters; AB7 sources cleared candidates but the hiring/credentialing happens with your US team. 11 years of contractor-sector experience. Scope federal hiring: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or +1 321 341 7733.
Do you have direct experience with Texas, Florida, and California state-specific hiring rules?
Yes. AB7 recruiters are trained on US state-specific hiring rules: Texas (right-to-work, drug-screen), Florida (E-Verify mandatory), California (Ban-the-Box, Pay Transparency Act, FEHA). We avoid prohibited screening questions and feed compliant scorecards into your ATS. Hire in 60 Minutes is state-compliant. Caveat: legal interpretation stays with your in-house counsel; we follow your guardrails. 11 years of US multi-state delivery across 140+ clients.

Week 2: 200+ outreached, 50+ engaged, 25+ submission-ready. We use LinkedIn Recruiter, SeekOut, AmazingHiring, and Gem sequencing.

Scope & engagement
Do you offer sourcing-only support without taking over full-cycle recruiting?
Yes. AB7's sourcing-only RPO is our most popular entry tier. You keep your in-house recruiters for offers and closing; we feed them 25–35 vetted, engaged candidates per week per requisition. We work inside your ATS (Greenhouse, Lever, Workday) and your sourcing tools. First profile under our 60-Minute SLA. Caveat: scheduling and reference-check ops are billed separately if you want to add them. Pilot a single sourcer for 2 weeks: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Do you handle technical screening (live coding, system design) before manager rounds?
Yes. AB7 runs pre-interview technical screens for engineering roles — live coding (Python, Java, JS, Go), basic system design, and stack-fit conversations. Our technical screeners have 5+ years of CS background. Output is a written scorecard pushed into Greenhouse or Lever. Hire in 60 Minutes applies to first-screen-completed candidates. Caveat: deep ML/infrastructure screens above L5 we partner with you or a CodeSignal vendor. Pilot a tech-screen layer: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.
Can you run interview scheduling coordination across multiple time zones?
Yes. AB7 scheduling coordinators run 24/5 interview ops across PST, EST, GMT, CET, IST, and AEST. We use GoodTime, Calendly, Greenhouse Recruiting Scheduling, and Lever Scheduling. Average reschedule turn-around: under 30 minutes. We handle no-shows, panel rescrambles, and travel-day bookings. Hire in 60 Minutes applies — first interview slot booked within an hour of candidate accept. Caveat: physical on-site interviews require your local-office logistics owner. Add scheduling to your scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Do you do reference-check operations as a standalone service?
Yes. AB7 offers reference-check ops as a standalone or bundled service — 3 references per candidate, 24-hour turnaround, with a written summary in your ATS. We use Checkster, Crosschq, or manual phone references. $35–$60 per reference depending on volume. Hire in 60 Minutes applies — first reference outreach within an hour. Caveat: international references (Europe/APAC) take 48 hours due to time zones. 1.8M+ tasks logged across reference operations. Add to your scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Can you build candidate talent-mapping research before we open a requisition?
Yes. AB7 offers talent-mapping as a standalone deliverable — competitor org charts, target-list of 200–500 candidates, salary benchmarks, and diversity signal. Turnaround: 5–10 business days. Output: Excel + Google Sheet with LinkedIn URLs and contact data. $1,800–$4,500 depending on scope. Caveat: talent-mapping is research, not outreach — outreach is a separate sourcing engagement. 1.8M+ tasks executed since 2015. Order a talent-mapping project: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or director@ab7solutions.com.
Do you handle candidate screening (resume review + 15-min phone screen)?
Yes. AB7 candidate screening covers resume review against your scorecard, 15–30 minute phone screens, motivation/comp/notice-period qualification, and a written summary into your ATS (Greenhouse, Lever, Workday). We screen 80–120 candidates per recruiter per week. Hire in 60 Minutes applies — first screened candidate in your pipeline within an hour. Caveat: deep technical screens (live coding) are a separate add-on. 90%+ retention. Pilot a screening engagement: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or director@ab7solutions.com.
Can you handle offer-letter generation and offer-negotiation support?
AB7 supports offer-negotiation conversations with candidates (comp expectations, counter-offer handling, notice periods) but offer-letter generation stays with your in-house HR/legal team for compliance reasons. We coach candidates through the close and feed back signal to your hiring manager. Hire in 60 Minutes applies through offer stage. Caveat: we don't sign offers or negotiate equity grants on your behalf. 11 years of close-coaching experience. Add close support to your scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.
Do you offer diversity and inclusion-focused sourcing pipelines?
Yes. AB7 builds diversity-first pipelines using SeekOut diversity filters, professional association lists (Society of Women Engineers, NSBE, AfroTech, Lesbians Who Tech), HBCU and Hispanic-Serving Institution targeting, and clean Boolean strings that surface underrepresented talent. We track diversity metrics in Greenhouse and Workday EEO fields. Hire in 60 Minutes applies. Caveat: we surface candidates; final selection accountability stays with your hiring team and US OFCCP rules. Book a D&I sourcing scoping: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or director@ab7solutions.com.
Can you run candidate-experience surveys and NPS measurement post-interview?
Yes. AB7 runs candidate experience surveys (5-question NPS + qualitative) on every screened candidate via Survicate, Typeform, or Greenhouse Surveys integration. Average client NPS: 60–72. We share quarterly reports with verbatim feedback and remediation themes. Hire in 60 Minutes applies to survey kickoff too. Caveat: response rates depend on outreach style — we coach, but candidates self-select to respond. 1.8M+ tasks logged including survey ops. Add candidate-NPS to your scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or director@ab7solutions.com.
Do you support employer-branding content for our careers page?
Partially. AB7 provides candidate-facing messaging templates, employee-quote frameworks, and InMail copy that supports employer branding. For full employer-brand campaigns (videos, LinkedIn Life pages, Glassdoor management), we partner with specialist vendors and coordinate. Hire in 60 Minutes is unrelated to brand work. Caveat: we don't write your blog or LinkedIn organic content — that's a marketing function. 11 years of recruiting-side messaging. Discuss messaging support: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or director@ab7solutions.com.
Do you support background-check coordination with Checkr, HireRight, or Sterling?
Yes. AB7 coordinates background checks via Checkr, HireRight, Sterling, and GoodHire — initiating, tracking, and following up on candidate consent and document submission. Status updates flow into Greenhouse, Lever, or iCIMS. Average BGC turnaround tracking: 3–5 business days. Hire in 60 Minutes applies to BGC kickoff. Caveat: adjudication of adverse-action results stays with your HR/legal team for FCRA compliance. 1.8M+ tasks across BGC ops. Add BGC ops to your scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.

Comparisons
How does AB7 compare to large Indian RPO firms like Wipro Talent or Randstad Sourceright?
AB7 sits in the boutique RPO tier — faster onboarding (3–5 days vs. 4–6 weeks), no minimum-spend lock-ins, and direct access to founders. Large firms have scale; AB7 has speed and accountability with 11 years and 140+ clients. Hire in 60 Minutes is something the big firms don't contractually offer. Caveat: for 1,000+ hire global programs, large firms may be a better fit. For 5–200 hires/year, AB7 wins on speed and price. Compare on a call: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Why pick AB7 over a US-based RPO like Cielo or KellyOCG?
AB7 wins on cost (40–55% lower) and speed (3–5 day onboarding vs. 4–8 weeks). US-based RPOs like Cielo or KellyOCG have global enterprise programs; AB7 is built for mid-market and growth-stage companies that want a real partner without enterprise paperwork. Hire in 60 Minutes is unique to AB7. 140+ clients, 1.8M+ tasks since 2015. Caveat: for $50M+ multi-year global programs, US enterprise RPOs may suit better. Get a head-to-head cost model: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or director@ab7solutions.com.
How do you compare to Indian agencies like Naukri RMS or TeamLease?
AB7 is a US/UK-aligned RPO, not a domestic India staffing firm. Naukri RMS and TeamLease serve India hiring; AB7 serves US, UK, Canada, Australia hiring from Mohali. We work inside Greenhouse, Lever, Workday — not just Naukri. Hire in 60 Minutes is unique. 11 years of cross-border delivery, 5 countries, 140+ clients. Caveat: for India-domestic blue-collar staffing, TeamLease is a better fit. For US/UK white-collar RPO, AB7 wins. Compare scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or +91 98156 88660.
How are you different from a contingency agency that just sends resumes?
Contingency agencies push resumes and bill on hire only; AB7 RPO embeds dedicated recruiters in your ATS, attends standups, screens to your scorecard, and operates as part of your TA team. Hire in 60 Minutes is contracted, not best-effort. Cost is 40–55% lower per hire than 20–25% contingency. Caveat: for one-off hires with no volume, contingency may still be simpler. For 5+ hires/year, RPO economics dominate. 140+ clients chose AB7 over contingency. Compare on a call: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Why should I pick AB7 over building an internal sourcing team in Mexico or Philippines?
Building offshore in-house in Mexico/Philippines costs $80K–$150K in setup (entity, payroll, real estate, management) plus 6–9 months ramp. AB7 delivers Day-5 productivity at lower per-recruiter cost with no setup risk. We've done this for 11 years; you'd be doing it for the first time. Hire in 60 Minutes is contracted from Day 1. Caveat: at 50+ recruiter scale, internal offshore can become competitive — but most clients stay with AB7. Compare TCO: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.
How do you compare to a freelance sourcer on Upwork at $20/hour?
A freelance Upwork sourcer is solo, unsupervised, and uses their own (often basic) tooling. AB7 puts a managed sourcer on premium tools (LinkedIn Recruiter, SeekOut, Gem) with QC, weekly cadence, ATS work, and SLA accountability. Hire in 60 Minutes is contracted. Cost is comparable, quality is materially better. Caveat: for one-off, low-stakes lookups, Upwork is fine. For real pipeline work, AB7's managed model wins. 90%+ retention vs. high freelance churn. Compare on a call: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.

Indian RPO for nursing hiring at US clinics — RN + MA + LPN volumes?
Yes. AB7 Solutions runs healthcare-specific RPO from Mohali, India, sourcing RNs, MAs, LPNs, and CNAs for US clinics, urgent care, and outpatient groups. Our recruiters work US time zones, screen for state licensure, BLS/ACLS, EMR exposure (Epic, Cerner, athenahealth), and shift fit. Caveat: we don't write state-board exam content or sponsor licenses — clients own credentialing. Book a healthcare-RPO scoping call: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or email ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.
High-volume CNA and home-health aide recruiting for US senior-care chains?
Yes. AB7 supports US-based recruiters who hire CNAs, HHAs, PCAs, and caregivers for senior-care, home-health, and assisted-living chains. We don't recruit US-resident caregivers from India — we provide back-office sourcing-coordinator support: posting, applicant screening, interview scheduling, license verification across applicant tracking. Caveat: actual candidate phone screens are best run by US-resident recruiters for accent and local-market reasons. Book scoping: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Telehealth platform hiring — RNs, NPs, behavioral-health clinicians from India?
AB7 supports US telehealth platforms (primary care, mental health, chronic care) with sourcing for US-licensed RNs, NPs, LCSWs, and LPCs. We map multi-state compact licenses (NLC, PSYPACT), screen for telehealth platform experience (Doxy, Zoom for Healthcare, athenaTelehealth), and manage interview scheduling. Caveat: behavioral-health clinicians have severe US supply constraints — even strong sourcing won't beat market scarcity. Realistic expectations matter. Scope your pipeline: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Pharma and life-sciences clinical-research hiring (CRA, CRC) support from India?
Yes. AB7 sources Clinical Research Associates (CRAs), Coordinators (CRCs), regulatory-affairs analysts, and biostatisticians for US pharma sponsors and CROs. We screen on therapeutic-area depth (oncology, cardiology, rare disease), GCP/ICH-E6 fluency, and EDC tools (Medidata Rave, Veeva, Oracle Clinical). Caveat: senior CRA II/III with US monitoring experience is a competitive global market — expect $90K+ TC ranges and 6-9 week cycles. Email director@ab7solutions.com to start.
Dental practice hiring support — DAs, hygienists, front-office, treatment coordinators?
AB7 supports US DSOs (dental service organizations) and multi-location dental practices with back-office recruiting: dental assistants, hygienists, treatment coordinators, and front-office leads. We handle sourcing, license verification, software screening (Dentrix, Eaglesoft, Open Dental), and interview scheduling. Caveat: hygienists and licensed DAs require US-state-resident candidates with active licensure — we won't source international hygienists. DSO scoping call: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Med-device and digital-health startup hiring — clinical, regulatory, commercial roles?
Yes. AB7 supports Series A-D medical-device and digital-health startups with sourcing across clinical (RNs, MDs as advisors), regulatory (RA specialists, QMS leads), and commercial (clinical-sales reps, account managers). We screen on FDA 510(k) / De Novo pathway exposure, ISO 13485 QMS, and territory-sales metrics. Caveat: senior VP Clinical and CMO roles aren't a fit for our model — those need executive search firms with US clinical networks. Email director@ab7solutions.com.
Hospital travel-nursing agency back-office recruiting and credentialing support?
AB7 supports US travel-nursing agencies with sourcing coordinators, credentialing specialists, and submission specialists working VMS platforms (Shiftwise, Medefis, AYA Connect, B4Health). We handle profile prep, license verification across compact and non-compact states, and submission velocity reporting. Caveat: actual nurse phone-screen and offer-close work stays with your US-based account managers — we don't replace senior travel recruiters, we feed them.

Workday HCM admin support from India for US mid-market?
AB7 provides Workday HCM operational admin support — employee-record changes, org-structure updates, business-process reporting, and report-writer maintenance — for US mid-market clients. Pricing $2.5K-$5K/month depending on FTE depth. Caveat: Workday configuration changes (security domain, business-process editing) require certified Workday Pro or partner consultants — we run ongoing operations, not implementation. Email ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com to align scope honestly.
BambooHR admin and HRIS coordinator outsourcing from India?
Yes. AB7 staffs BambooHR HRIS coordinators full-time or part-time for US SMBs: employee-data maintenance, time-off configuration, document-template management, performance-cycle setup, and reporting. Pricing $700-$2K/month depending on scope. Caveat: BambooHR is well-suited up to ~250 employees — past that, we'll recommend Rippling, Gusto, or Workday rather than overstretching BambooHR. Scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Rippling, Gusto, and Justworks admin support from India?
AB7 supports Rippling, Gusto, and Justworks (PEO) administration for US startups and SMBs: employee onboarding, time-tracking setup, benefits-enrollment coordination, and payroll-cycle support. Caveat: PEO co-employment changes (Justworks, TriNet, Insperity) involve compliance flows that require US-side HR signoff — we coordinate, not authorize. Email director@ab7solutions.com to scope.
Paylocity and ADP Workforce Now admin support outsourced from India?
Yes. AB7 covers Paylocity and ADP Workforce Now (plus ADP Run, ADP TotalSource) ongoing admin: employee-data maintenance, payroll-prep, time-and-attendance setup, benefits-deduction validation, and standard-report builds. Caveat: ADP TotalSource (PEO) shifts compliance ownership to ADP — your India-side admins prep and reconcile, but final filings stay PEO-side. Pricing typically $1.2K-$3K/month. Scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Onboarding ops vendor from India for 200-hire/month staffing firm?
Yes. AB7 staffs onboarding ops pods for US staffing firms running 100-500 hires/month: offer-letter generation, e-signature management (DocuSign, HelloSign), I-9 prep coordination, background-check ordering, drug-screen coordination, and Day-1 readiness QA. Caveat: I-9 Section 2 in-person verification stays US-side (or via authorized E-Verify representatives) — we prep paperwork and chase candidates, we don't replace I-9 verifiers. Scope a pod: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Payroll back-office support from India — biweekly and semi-monthly cycles?
AB7 staffs payroll-ops coordinators handling biweekly, semi-monthly, and weekly US payroll cycles across Gusto, Rippling, ADP, Paychex, and Paylocity. Coverage includes hours-validation, off-cycle adjustments, garnishment tracking, and 1099 contractor pay runs. Caveat: licensed payroll professional (CPP, FPC) signoff stays US-side — we feed clean prep work, your US payroll lead approves and submits filings. Email ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.
Benefits-administration support — open enrollment, 401k, COBRA coordination?
Yes. AB7 supports US benefits administration through India-based coordinators: open-enrollment communication, 401k eligibility tracking, COBRA notification chasing, and life-event coordination across carriers (Anthem, BCBS, UHC, Kaiser). Caveat: ERISA-sensitive determinations and final benefit-eligibility decisions stay with your US benefits broker or HR lead — we run coordination and communications, not fiduciary calls. Scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Employee-records HRIS audit and data-cleanup project support?
AB7 runs HRIS data-cleanup project work: duplicate employee-record dedup, manager-hierarchy correction, location/department normalization, and historical-event reconstruction (especially before mergers, acquisitions, or HRIS migrations). Pricing is project-based, not hourly. Caveat: we don't make compliance-determination calls (employment classification, exempt vs non-exempt) — those need US legal/HR review. Email director@ab7solutions.com.
Performance-management cycle ops support — Lattice, 15Five, Culture Amp admin?
Yes. AB7 supports performance-management cycle ops in Lattice, 15Five, Culture Amp, Leapsome, and Reflektive: cycle-template setup, stakeholder communication, completion-rate tracking, and post-cycle reporting. Caveat: calibration meetings and final performance-decision facilitation stay with US-side HRBPs — we run the operational cycle plumbing, not the calibration discussions. Scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Offer-letter generation and e-signature ops outsourced from India?
AB7 staffs offer-letter ops coordinators handling templated offer-letter generation, role-specific compensation accuracy, e-signature workflows (DocuSign, HelloSign, Adobe Sign), countersigner management, and counter-offer iteration tracking.

Indian recruiter familiar with US visa processes (H1B, TN, OPT)?
Yes. AB7's US-desk recruiters routinely screen H1B (cap-subject and cap-exempt), H1B transfers, OPT/STEM-OPT, TN (Canada/Mexico under USMCA), and EAD-based work-authorization candidates. We understand priority-date language, port-in transfers, and STEM-OPT employer-attestation context. Caveat: we don't provide legal immigration advice — we coordinate sourcing and scheduling, your immigration counsel makes determinations. Email ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com or book https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
H1B transfer hiring — recruiters who can identify portable H1B candidates?
AB7 recruiters identify and pre-screen portable H1B candidates (current valid H1B, intent-to-transfer comfort, priority-date status if green-card-track relevant), plus H1B amendments for role/location changes. We screen for I-797 validity windows, end-client structure (relevant for consulting transfers), and STEM-OPT-to-H1B cap-bridge timing. Caveat: actual H1B transfer petition prep is your immigration attorney's work — we just deliver legally hireable candidates with clean paperwork awareness. Scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
STEM-OPT and OPT extension candidate sourcing for US tech roles?
Yes. AB7 sources OPT and STEM-OPT candidates (24-month STEM extension), screening on degree-CIP code STEM eligibility, EAD validity windows, and employer-E-Verify-enrollment context (required for STEM-OPT). We can also screen for cap-subject H1B-bridge candidates if your goal is multi-year retention. Caveat: STEM-OPT employers must be E-Verify enrolled — we'll confirm your E-Verify status before sourcing STEM-OPT-only pools. Email director@ab7solutions.com.
TN visa hiring from Canada for US engineering and finance roles?
AB7 sources TN-eligible Canadian and Mexican candidates for US roles under USMCA (formerly NAFTA) — primarily engineers, accountants, scientists, computer-systems analysts, and management consultants. We screen on degree-discipline match, role-title alignment to TN occupational categories, and Canadian-license status where applicable. Caveat: TN classification is petition-by-petition, employer-specific — your immigration counsel runs the petition, we deliver hireable candidates. Scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
L1A and L1B intra-company transfer candidate sourcing for US offices?
Yes. AB7 supports L1 intra-company transfer hiring — L1A (managers/executives) and L1B (specialized knowledge) — for US offices of multinational employers. We screen for one-year qualifying employment with the foreign affiliate, role-fit to L1A/L1B definitions, and blanket-L vs individual-L petition context. Caveat: L1 petitions live or die on documentation — we feed candidates with clean paperwork awareness, but petition-strategy stays with your immigration counsel. Email ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.
H-4 EAD candidate sourcing for US tech and finance roles?
AB7 sources H-4 EAD candidates (spouses of H1B principals with approved I-140) — typically experienced engineers, finance professionals, and PMs returning to work after H-4 EAD eligibility. We screen on EAD validity windows and renewal-timing risk. Caveat: H-4 EAD policy has been politically volatile across administrations — we'll candidly flag renewal-timing risk so you don't hire 6 months before an EAD expires without renewal-readiness. Scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
O-1 and EB-2 NIW candidate awareness for senior US engineer/researcher hiring?
Yes. AB7 recruiters identify candidates with active O-1 (extraordinary ability) and EB-2 NIW (National Interest Waiver) status, common in senior research, ML/AI, and academic-track engineer hiring. We screen on petition-status awareness and priority-date context. Caveat: O-1 and EB-2 NIW filing strategy is a specialized immigration-counsel domain — we identify candidates, your counsel evaluates fit. Email director@ab7solutions.com.
UK Skilled Worker visa-aware recruiter from India for UK tech hiring?
AB7 supports UK-based clients with sourcing that's aware of UK Skilled Worker visa context — Certificate of Sponsorship (CoS) requirements, salary-threshold compliance (current £38,700 general threshold and going-rate for occupation code), and Shortage Occupation List relevance. Caveat: only UK Home Office-licensed sponsors can issue CoS — we don't sponsor, we deliver candidates with visa-status awareness for your sponsorship pipeline. Scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Australia 482 TSS visa-aware recruiter for AU tech and healthcare hiring?
Yes. AB7 supports Australian employers with sourcing for Subclass 482 (Temporary Skill Shortage / TSS) visa-eligible candidates, screening on Skilled Occupation List alignment, salary threshold compliance (TSMIT), and skills-assessment readiness for relevant occupations. Caveat: actual 482 nomination and sponsorship licensing stays with your AU-side migration agents — we feed candidates with clean visa-status awareness, not run nominations. Email ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.
Canada LMIA-supported and Express Entry-aware recruiter from India?
AB7 sources for Canadian roles requiring LMIA-supported work permits and identifies Express Entry-eligible candidates (CRS-aware) for permanent placement. We screen on NOC-code alignment, French/English proficiency where role-relevant, and provincial-nomination program (PNP) context. Caveat: LMIA application processing and Express Entry filing strategy stays with your Canadian immigration consultants — we deliver visa-aware candidates, not file petitions. Scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting or +1 321 341 7733.

Compliance ops for US staffing agency (I-9, E-Verify, drug screen) from India?
Yes. AB7 staffs compliance-ops coordinators for US staffing agencies handling I-9 documentation prep, E-Verify case submission and resolution coordination, drug-screen ordering (Quest, LabCorp, eScreen), background-check ordering (Checkr, Sterling, Accurate, HireRight), and adverse-action workflow tracking. Caveat: I-9 Section 2 in-person physical document review must be performed by an authorized US-resident representative — we prep, you verify. Scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
I-9 Section 1 prep and E-Verify case-management support from India?
AB7 coordinators handle I-9 Section 1 (employee-completion) chasing, document-list explanation, E-Verify case submission via your account (with proper user-access controls), Tentative Non-Confirmation (TNC) coordination with employees, and re-verification calendaring for List A receipts. Caveat: I-9 Section 2 verification (physical or DHS-authorized remote alternative) requires US-resident authorized representatives — we prep candidates and chase paperwork, US-side performs verification. Email director@ab7solutions.com.
Background-check coordination from India — Checkr, Sterling, Accurate, HireRight?
Yes. AB7 staffs background-check coordinators across Checkr, Sterling, Accurate, HireRight, and First Advantage: order placement, candidate-follow-up for missing info, status tracking, and adverse-action notice coordination per FCRA workflows. Caveat: adjudication (the actual hire/no-hire call based on background results) stays with your US-side compliance lead — we coordinate the workflow, you make the determination. Scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Drug-screen ordering and result-tracking ops from India for US staffing?
AB7 supports drug-screen coordination across Quest Diagnostics, LabCorp, eScreen, and Concentra — order placement, candidate scheduling, no-show follow-up, and result-tracking. We handle DOT and non-DOT panels with attention to chain-of-custody documentation. Caveat: Medical Review Officer (MRO) decisions and final result-fitness determinations are licensed-physician work — we coordinate the workflow, MROs make calls. Email ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.
EEO-1 and OFCCP reporting prep support from India for US federal contractors?
Yes. AB7 supports US federal contractors with EEO-1 and OFCCP reporting prep — applicant-flow data collection, AAP (Affirmative Action Plan) data structuring, adverse-impact analysis prep, and OFCCP audit-readiness documentation. Caveat: AAP narrative drafting and OFCCP audit response stays with your US-side compliance counsel or specialist consultants — we feed clean data, they author and defend. Scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Reference-check coordination and verification ops from India?
AB7 coordinators run structured reference-check ops: outreach to provided references, scheduled phone-reference interviews, verification of employment dates and titles, and structured-feedback synthesis. Coverage spans India-based reference-call work for India and global candidates, plus US-time-zone-overlap calls for US references. Caveat: legally protected reference-checking varies by US state — we follow your script and your scope, we don't draft questions that risk EEO violations on our own. Email director@ab7solutions.com.
Pay-transparency and salary-range compliance support for US job postings?
Yes. AB7 supports US-multi-state pay-transparency compliance (CA, CO, NY, NY State, WA, IL, MD, MN, etc.) by maintaining state-by-state job-posting requirements, ensuring required salary-range and benefits-disclosure language appears in postings, and auditing aggregator postings (Indeed, LinkedIn) for consistency. Caveat: actual salary-band determination and pay-equity strategy stays with your US-side comp team — we ensure postings are compliant with what you provide. Scope: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
1099 contractor classification and ABC-test paperwork ops from India?
AB7 supports US staffing and gig-platform clients with 1099 contractor onboarding paperwork ops: W-9 collection, contractor-agreement e-signature, 1099-NEC year-end prep, and state-by-state ABC-test documentation tracking (CA, NJ, MA among the strictest). Caveat: actual 1099-vs-W2 classification determination is a legal call — your US employment counsel decides classification, we run the paperwork once decided. Email ashok.benial@ab7solutions.com.
WOTC (Work Opportunity Tax Credit) screening and submission support?
Yes. AB7 supports US employers and staffing agencies with WOTC (Work Opportunity Tax Credit) screening: candidate WOTC questionnaire collection, IRS Form 8850 prep, ETA Form 9061 coordination, and state workforce agency submission tracking within the 28-day window. Caveat: actual WOTC certification approval is state-agency-driven — we ensure clean and timely submissions, certification timing depends on agency response. Scope WOTC ops: https://calendly.com/ashok-benial/meeting.
Multi-state hiring compliance research support — new-state expansion checklists?
AB7 supports US employers expanding into new states with hiring-compliance research and checklists: state-specific I-9 alternative requirements, new-hire reporting cadence, state-specific paid-sick-leave rules, ban-the-box ordinance tracking, and state-specific final-pay rules. Caveat: this is research and operationalization support — actual employment-law determinations stay with your US employment counsel. We give you a clean briefing pack and operational workflows.
