Looking to hire within 7 days. Long-term relationship preferred — top performers move to weekly retainer. --- Want me to also draft a shorter version, a screening test, or a follow-up message template for top candidates? DEPENDING ON HOW FAST AND SKILLED YOU ARE WILL DETERMINE HOW MUCH YOU ARE PAID.
