How Kelly Advisory Works
A structured approach to hiring architecture and talent strategy for AI founders. 15 years building in Bay Area AI and infrastructure. 100K+ network. Every engagement is built on role calibration, evaluation frameworks and talent market intelligence.
Advisory Conversation
30 minutes to understand your company, the hire that matters most and what success looks like. I bring talent market intelligence and tell you honestly if I am the right fit.
Role Calibration
Within 48 hours: a clear scope document with role definition calibrated to the talent market, evaluation criteria and hiring roadmap. Fast alignment, no back-and-forth.
Hiring Architecture
I build the interview system, evaluation frameworks and talent market map for your roles. The infrastructure that makes every hire after it better. Not filling roles. Building the system.
Decision and Close
I stay through the decision with compensation intelligence and offer strategy. My work is not done when you pick a candidate. It is done when they accept and show up.
