Most drop off before the application ever lands.
You have a drop-off problem, not an applicant problem. Between the ad click and the submitted application you lose almost everyone – because nothing on the way to you builds any trust.
We build machinery builders and technical service operators their own recruiting system – once. After that you hire on your own, without an agency, without a retainer and without us. One principle: we guarantee the hire, not the volume of applications.
You have a drop-off problem, not an applicant problem. Between the ad click and the submitted application you lose almost everyone – because nothing on the way to you builds any trust.
The 600 social-recruiting agencies deliver applicants on a conveyor belt. But applicants are not hires. We measure by filled positions, not by clicks – with a hiring guarantee.
No page, no funnel, no applicant data. You rent reach you never own. We build it the other way around: afterward the system belongs to you.
A skilled position in German mechanical engineering stays open 106 days at the median (own analysis, 23,707 Federal Agency postings, 2026). After roughly 120 days of vacancy, the cost of the open role exceeds a full annual gross salary – calculated at a factor of three, the midpoint of the common range of two to four. In service it additionally costs contractual response times, maintenance contracts and, at the next quotation, the machine itself.
Six modules that stay in the company: role profile, careers page, channel, response rhythm, pre-selection, handover. Built once – after that you hire on your own, without an agency and without us.
ViewFirst we check whether the role can be filled in your region. We decline roles that cannot. Then the build, the filling phase with a guarantee on the hire – and the step no agency takes.
ViewEight core titles, one hiring market: people with a metalworking or electrical apprenticeship. That is exactly why one system carries several roles – including the one you will not advertise until next year.
ViewWhat we build – and what belongs to you from day one:
Career page, ads and application flow from one hand – and afterward they belong to you. No rented access we could switch off on you.
We only take on positions that can actually be filled. What "right fit" means we put in writing before we start – so the guarantee holds.
Your company shows up when candidates ask ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google. The AI screens first and answers instantly – only the right candidates reach you.
If no one gets hired, we keep working – with no further agency fees. Real re-filling, not a money-back charade. We only win when you hire.
No applicant conveyor belt that sells clicks as success. No retainer that keeps you stuck. A system that hires – and afterward belongs to you.
When where candidates search changes – we keep you visible.
When a hire falls through – we re-fill it, at no extra cost.
When your company grows – the same system carries the next role.
Put your name down. As soon as a slot opens in your area we will come back to you – with an assessment, not a pitch.
What happens next
A systems builder, not an agency
Blacklyne is not a recruiter, not a retainer agency and not a staffing firm. We build the hiring system once inside your company and hand it over with accounts, templates and everything documented in writing. From handover on you hire on your own – no fee per head, no monthly retainer, and no us.
What ends at handover
What stays – inside your company
Your ad budget keeps running through your own accounts, paid straight to the platform. Nothing flows to us from day one – that is the difference, not the campaign.
