Reversing the talent drain.
Traditional retirement means losing decades of industry knowledge. WAHVE flips the model by giving professionals approaching retirement the opportunity to continue contributing on their terms.
How WAHVE Works
1. Qualifying
As the repository of the industry’s retiring talent, our application and blind-interview process qualifies candidates so that they are ready when you are.
2. Job Request
Our proprietary platform guides you through completing a job request including the selection of hard and soft skills that define the position and serve as inputs for matching candidates.
3. Talent Matching
A placement specialist further qualifies the best matched WAHVE’s who fit your requirements and sends you their resumes. You decide who to interview and who to hire.
4. Onboarding
We contract the wahve exclusively to your firm. We coordinate with your IT team to connect the WAHVE with your systems and work with you to schedule training on your processes.
5. Delivery
Your WAHVE becomes a fully productive member of your staff almost immediately, and a Relationship Manager works closely with you and your WAHVE throughout the assignment. You are billed only for hours worked.
Removing Your Staffing Burden
Our wahves average 25+ years of experience, so they can step in immediately, add value, and mentor younger staff. They know the insurance business inside and out—and they’re ready to hit the ground running.
WAHVE is 100% insurance-focused. We understand your business, your roles, and your challenges. That’s why we can simplify your staffing process and provide pre-vetted experts who are ready to perform from day one.
