Our Recruitment Models
Contingency Search
- Pay only when you hire — fee is a percentage of the hire’s first-year compensation
- We source, screen, and present qualified candidates for your open role
- Low-risk entry point with no upfront commitment
- Best for one-off hiring needs or companies testing the waters with an external recruiting partner
Retained Search
- Exclusive, dedicated engagement for critical hires — key leadership roles, hard-to-find specialists, or high-impact positions
- Structured fee paid in stages with full commitment from both sides
- Access to a deeper candidate pool, including passive talent not found on job boards
- The right model when the cost of a bad hire or prolonged vacancy far outweighs the upfront investment
RPO (Recruitment Process Outsourcing)
- We embed directly into your operation and own part or all of your recruiting function
- Turnkey recruiting engine: sourcing, screening, interview coordination, pipeline reporting, and hiring manager support
- No overhead of building or expanding an internal recruiting team
- Best for companies scaling fast, launching a new facility, or facing a hiring surge
Self-Sourcing
- Project-based consulting for companies that want to recruit on their own with the right strategy and tools
- Starts with a Line-of-Sight assessment and Predictive Index diagnostic to define exactly what you need
- We recommend and configure the right sourcing tools for your roles AI platforms, LinkedIn Recruiter, ZipRecruiter, Dice, ClearanceJobs, and more
- You handle outreach and hiring; we make sure you’re equipped to compete for top talent on your own terms
Subscription / Fixed Fee / RaaS (Recruiting as a Service)
- Flat monthly fee for ongoing, dedicated recruiting support — no per-hire markups, no surprises
- Operates as your embedded recruiting partner: sourcing passive candidates, managing your pipeline, coordinating interviews, and reporting progress
- Covers multiple roles concurrently with month-to-month flexibility
- Most cost-effective model for companies hiring 5+ people per year or maintaining a steady technical/leadership pipeline
- Turns recruiting from a transaction into a partnership — predictable cost, continuous momentum, and a team that knows your business

FAQ
What is RAYWI – Recruiting As You Want It?
How does the RAYWI platform work?
With the RAYWI platform, we show the most appropriate and cost effective recruiting modes (contingency, retained search, RPO, self-sourcing, subscription/RaaS/fractional) based on company inputs.
What types of roles and industries does RAYWI support?
RAYWI is built for hard‑to‑fill roles in manufacturing, AEC/engineering, and defense/government contracting, including engineers, estimators, project managers, cleared professionals, and key leadership roles.
When does a recruiting subscription make more sense than paying per hire?
RAYWI usually makes the most sense when you’re making at least 5–10 hires per year or you have a steady pipeline of technical and leadership roles; at that point, subscription recruiting is typically more cost‑effective and stable than repeated contingency fees.
Can you still work on a contingency or retained basis if subscription isn’t a fit?
Yes. RAYWI sits alongside traditional models—Mastrovito Associates can support contingency, retained, RPO‑style, and one‑off projects when subscription is not the best option.
What does a RAYWI subscription include?
A RAYWI engagement typically includes ongoing sourcing, outreach to passive candidates, screening, interview coordination, hiring manager support, and regular pipeline reporting, functioning like an embedded recruiting partner rather than a one‑off agency. Subscription clients get priority support over all other clients.
How many roles can you work on simultaneously under RAYWI?
What is the commitment length, and can we adjust or cancel it?
RAYWI is intentionally flexible: engagements are structured so you can scale up, scale down, or exit with reasonable notice, giving you more control than long, rigid RPO contracts. The commitment is month-to-month.
How do you measure success in a RAYWI engagement?
Success is measured by roles filled, time to fill, quality and retention of hires, and how well hires support your strategic and operational goals—not just by sending résumés.
Differentiation and integration with strategy
How does Mastrovito Associates differ from traditional recruiting agencies?
Mastrovito Associates combines a concierge recruiting approach with the RAYWI platform, deep industry focus (manufacturing, AEC, defense), and tools like Predictive Index and Line‑of‑Sight to connect hiring decisions to leadership, human capital, and strategy execution.
How do you work with self‑sourcing and AI tools we already use?
If you’re self‑sourcing or using AI sourcing tools, Mastrovito Associates can help you choose and configure tools and then plug in as an external recruiting advisor to handle the hard parts—screening, outreach, and closing—when internal capacity or expertise isn’t enough.
