12,000+ Agents. Constant Recruiting
Manual screening buries top candidates in volume.
120+ Offices. Inconsistent Quality.
No scalable way to replicate top-performer standards nationwide.
Data Sovereignty Non-Negotiable.
AI tools sending PII to OpenAI get blocked. Period.
New Leadership. New Mandate.
Agency transformation needs modern hiring infrastructure.
While you screen the first 150, your competitors process all 12,000 against their top performer models. That's not a hiring process. That's a lottery where timing beats talent.

What it's costing you right now:

The real issue: Your competitors aren't just hiring faster. They're building talent advantage that compounds every quarte
Every day you wait, they're pulling further ahead.
The Data Sovereignty Problem
Data Sovereignty is Non-Negotiable. AI tools sending PII to OpenAI get blocked. Period. Nodes runs differently—deploying fine-tuned models inside your VPC. Nothing leaves your environment.
Fortune 500 FinServ Case Study
With 200+ locations and 1,000+ applicants per key role, their keyword-based ATS was failing. High-potential candidates were lost in volume. Average time-to-hire: 127 days.
Deployed in their private cloud in 3 weeks. Built a Top Performer model from their best 5% of employees. Now screens every single applicant against this benchmark.
The Results:
582,630 candidates screened in 8 months
70% faster time-to-hire (127 → 38 days)
$1.58M saved in screening and interview costs
1.3× more top performers in final hires
Legal approved in 3 weeks
Zero data left their infrastructure
