Consultants must accept before being listed.
*** #### Building a Trusted Talent Pool Your preferred consultants list acts as a **pre-vetted talent pool** you can reuse anytime. Instead of starting from scratch for every role, you can: * Re-engage previously shortlisted candidates * Work with talent you already trust * Speed up future hiring cycles *** #### Preferred Vendors Add vendors as preferred partners to streamline repeat work. Vendors control whether they accept the relationship. Preferred vendors allow you to: * Work repeatedly with trusted partners * Reduce onboarding time for future projects * Maintain consistency in delivery *** #### How Preferred Networks Fit Into Hiring Preferred networks are most powerful when combined with iParley’s trust layer: * Add candidates after shortlisting * Add vendors after successful engagements * Reuse verified relationships for faster hiring
