Recruit is for finding great people. People is for being great to them once they've joined. Same login, same directory, same app the rest of the company already uses.
Every open role is a board. Candidates move across it with a tap. Interviews get booked from the card, references and right-to-work checks tick off on it, and the offer goes out from it.
When a candidate goes quiet - nine days with no interview feedback, say - their card turns red. Because a quiet card is a person refreshing their inbox. Headway puts them at the top of your morning, not in the "whatever happened to that great candidate?" conversation three weeks later.
From the card, with the panel, with the room. No email chain.
References, right to work, credentials - each one a box on the card.
Base, super, bonus, benefits - the same numbers HR sees later.
A candidate nobody's replied to turns red. Nobody gets ghosted on your watch.
No spreadsheet from the recruiter to the onboarding person. No re-typing the start date. Everything you learned about someone while you were getting to know them - who they are, what you agreed, when they start - is already on their page the morning they walk in. Your job on day one is the welcome. Headway's got the admin.
Not a dashboard. Not a hundred charts. Four people it'd be worth talking to this week, and the reason next to each one - the 1:1 that slipped, the hours that crept, the pay that's fallen behind, the win nobody's mentioned yet.
You're done reading it before your coffee's cold.
Most retention scores come out of a black box. This one is just addition - each thing pulling someone toward the door gets points, each thing keeping them gets points off, and you can see every line.
Disagree with it? Point at the line. It's recalculated from live facts every time you look, so it's never a number someone typed in last quarter.
And the number isn't the point - the conversation is. The score just tells you it's time to have one.
Pick a cadence per person. Headway notices when it slips.
See who's under, who's over, and by how much - as a percentage, not a guess.
Base, super, bonus, benefits on one page. Offer letters and reviews use the same numbers.
Who reports to whom, in one place the whole company shares.
Late nights and no leave, spotted before someone hands in notice.
Good news travels. Headway makes sure it reaches the right manager.
