Hire for fit, not just for credentials.

Private schools win on community and purpose. We help you attract and screen the candidates who belong in yours.

Culture and values fit

Independent and faith-based schools hire for fit as much as credentials. We pre-vet for alignment with your mission, not just a résumé.

Compete on more than pay

Branded microsites sell your community, class sizes, and purpose — so you attract candidates even when a public district can offer more salary.

Niche and specialized roles

Religious studies, classical curriculum, arts, athletics, and small-department teachers — we target the specific candidates your program needs.

Lean admin, full support

Without a dedicated HR team, you get end-to-end sourcing, screening, and interview scheduling — and only pay when you actually hire.

A proven path from posting to hired.

One marketing-driven process that attracts, nurtures, and qualifies candidates for every role.

Awareness

We market your open roles

Targeted campaigns on job boards and social reach both active and passive candidates where they already are.

Interest

Branded microsites tell your story

Custom landing pages showcase your district culture, benefits, and opportunities to build real connection.

Qualification

We screen, interview & pre-vet

Our team runs an early screening interview and a recorded video interview, so only qualified candidates ever reach you.

Hiring

We schedule, negotiate & hand off

We coordinate interview scheduling and, when your district needs it, support salary negotiation — then hand off candidates into your ATS, with permanent, contract, or temp-to-hire options to fit your timeline.

You only pay when you hire.

Most staffing agencies charge retainers and steep placement fees whether you hire or not. HireK12 carries the risk — if we don't deliver a hire, you don't pay.

$0 upfront

Start filling roles with zero cost to launch a campaign.

No retainers or placement fees

No long contracts and none of the 20–25% agency placement fees.

Pay only on a signed hire

You pay when a candidate accepts and signs — not before.

Trusted by private school leaders.

Private school hiring, answered.

The questions heads of school and admins ask most before they bring HireK12 in.

How does HireK12 help private schools hire teachers and staff?

We market your open teaching and non-teaching roles to active and passive candidates, tell your school's story through branded microsites, and pre-vet applicants with an early screening interview and a recorded video interview that surfaces mission and culture fit. We manage interview scheduling and hand off ready-to-interview candidates into your hiring process.

Can you find candidates who fit our school's mission or faith tradition?

Yes. We tailor sourcing and screening to your values, curriculum, and community, so the candidates you interview are aligned with what makes your school distinct, not just credentialed.

How do we compete with public schools that pay more?

Branded microsites and targeted campaigns highlight what private schools win on — community, smaller classes, autonomy, and purpose — so the right candidates choose your school for reasons beyond salary.

What does it cost, and when do we pay?

There are no retainers and no agency-style placement fees. You only pay when a candidate accepts and signs an offer — zero cost to launch a campaign.
