Not a wishful sum of every open deal. It's a weighted forecast that reflects how likely each placement really is, plus the reports that tell you where your best candidates come from.

It's the modern, lighter alternative without the bloat.
Klose Recruit is $82/mo. While you also use Klose to recruit sales people for your own business, your subscription drops to $65/mo, a standing discount for every month you hire with us. There's no contract: if you stop, it just returns to $82.
