Iteratively improving to make our recruiting process even better for engineers
The internal external experience
Unlike most of the recruiting firms you’ve probably encountered, we’ve worked side-by-side with engineers and technologists to coach and grow technology teams. We’re not your typical “technical recruiter.” We really do understand technology. We speak the language. We know what K8s are, what companies are using Rust and why, and that if you write in Go, you’ll collect more than $200. We know saying we use data in our recruiting process has to mean more than using BIC as our primary KPI.
What’s more, the extensive onboarding process we use with our client companies acquires the data points engineers ask for and care about - data points about company funding, culture, and leadership. And through our client companies, we’re able to open doors to challenging positions with innovative teams, like CTRL-Labs, making a real difference in sectors like AI, health tech, and consumer tech.
Offering a transparent, collaborative recruiting process, we’re committed to iterative improvement based on feedback - improvement aimed at making both our client companies and talent successful in their searches. And we try to keep things really human. We believe in treating everyone we encounter the way we want to be treated - with dignity, respect, and empathy.
“We keep moving forward, opening new doors, and doing new things, because we’re curious and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.”
— Walt Disney
Three simple things
Our uniqueness in a market flooded with technology recruiters comes down to three simple things.
1 Access.
Our unique Anomaly solutions, built on our trusted reputation, open the door to opportunities that talented engineers wouldn’t or couldn’t access on their own. We’re not talking run-of-the-mill big-firm jobs. Instead, think of positions with firms like CTRL-Labs, blazing a trail across industries, including mission focused, developer tech, fintechs focused on blockchain and crypto, and other innovative verticals.
2 Knowledge.
We’re connected to market data as it evolves, and we use it to help talented engineers find a position now or keep tabs on market activity for a future search. We have an intimate understanding of the technology market and love its constant movement and discoveries. And our knowledge isn’t just paper knowledge. We gather data points from our client companies - data points important to engineers as they consider making a change, like why the company’s hiring, what the engineering culture’s like, and funding levels, to name just a few.
3 Commitment.
We’re committed to:
Working side-by-side with talent to navigate a vibrant, but crowded, market.
Offering data points not found on Google or Glassdoor.
Uncovering opportunities that elevate your career, offer challenging, rewarding work, and expose you to opportunities you may not have access to otherwise.
Direct recruiting only using our direct connections to information beyond the job specification.
“Status quo is a kick in the stomach.”

What You Can Expect
We approach the job search very differently from other recruiting firms. With Internal External, you can expect:
A humanizing, get-to-know you call to understand you - your experience, abilities, interests, and talents - information that’s not on your resume. Simply, we get to know you, so we can craft an accurate, engaging description of you as a candidate and person.
An efficient, transparent process that provides companies with upfront, accurate, and relevant information about you.
Relevant, fitting opportunities presented to you by phone, email, or virtual conference with the information and data points you need to be prepared for conversations and interviews.
An explanation of and help with the interview process, along with information on each company you’re presented to.
Quick submission response times of about 1-3 days. If a company isn’t responsive, we move on.
Interview feedback on the interviews you participate in.
Timeline and process management with tips at each stage in the process.
Assistance vetting opportunities and with compensation negotiations until you find the best-fit situation.
Let’s find your next work home.
