Questions firms ask.
What is NLOS, exactly?
NLOS (Next Level Operating System) is the operating system for a recruiting firm: one chat over your firm’s own searches and candidates, with an AI agent underneath doing the prep work.
Is NLOS another applicant tracking system?
No. Your ATS stays the system of record. NLOS works over the top of it and does the prep work around it: the kickoff packet, the first outreach draft, the next touch, the campaign, the scorecard.
Does NLOS replace recruiters?
No. NLOS does the prep so recruiters spend the day with people. The judgment (the recommendation, the hire, the pitch) stays human, and nothing is sent without approval.
Is our data private?
Yes. Each person’s information stays private and secure, no other user can access it, and your clients and candidates are never training material for anyone else’s model.
