A Structured Hiring Methodology for Long-Term Fit and Success
The Solutions Driven 6F Methodology is a structured hiring framework designed to uncover the complete picture of a candidate’s personal and professional drivers. By understanding what motivates individuals—and how that aligns with your company’s culture, values, and goals—you can avoid unconscious bias, make more confident hiring decisions, and secure candidates who are aligned for long-term success.

The 6Fs Explained
FIT
Cultural Alignment and Inclusion
Culture fit and culture add are what turn a job into a long-term commitment. We help identify candidates who align with your values, working style, and team dynamics—so they can thrive, contribute meaningfully, and feel they belong.
FREEDOM
Individual Goals and Ambitions
What are the candidate’s long-term aspirations? Understanding their professional goals ensures they’re not just right for the role now—but that they’ll grow with your business in the future.
FAMILY
Life Outside of Work
Everyone brings their whole self to work. Considering family commitments and personal priorities helps you support well-being and strike the right work-life balance for sustainable success.
FULFILMENT
Personal and Professional Motivation
What drives a candidate at their core? Fulfilment means different things to different people. We uncover what matters most to each individual so you can offer meaningful, motivating roles.
FORTUNE
Success, Compensation, Recognition
From salary to status to satisfaction—what does “success” mean to them? We align their expectations and ambitions with what your role offers, helping avoid mismatches and missed opportunities.
FUTURE
Career Growth & Long-Term Vision
Does this opportunity fit into their future vision? The final “F” ensures candidates are set up to succeed not just now, but long term—supporting internal progression and retention.
