Targeted Sourcing
We don’t just post and pray. We proactively hunt down candidates suited for your specific roles — matched to your pay and schedule.
Build a stronger team
Recruiting for
Cleaning
Businesses.
Stop losing hours chasing applicants, sorting through unqualified résumés, and dealing with interview no-shows. We run the entire hiring engine for you.
Let’s TalkCleaners, housekeepers, day porters, janitorial and facility-support staff — we find the people your contracts depend on.
End-to-End Recruiting
We take the hiring burden off your plate.
You just make the hire.
Bad hires cost more than an open position—no-shows, ghosting, and training hours spent on people who don’t last. We find and screen the ones who show up and stay, so you can keep jobs moving and clients happy.
02
Vetted for Dependability
Every candidate is screened for real work ethic, reliable transportation, schedule alignment, and communication before you ever see them.
03
Active Candidate Engagement
We stay in close contact with candidates to prevent ghosting and ensure they stay excited about joining your team.
04
Your Next Great Hire
You receive a detailed profile of the candidate we recommend for your business, so you can move forward with confidence.

A Closer Look at Screening
High standards, checked by a person.
Anyone can post a job and collect applications. Fewer can tell who will actually show up. We speak with every applicant and screen for attitude, dependability, communication, and work ethic—alongside the location, schedule, pay, and requirements your role demands.
The flakes never reach your calendar. Only candidates who are genuinely worth your time make it to an interview, and you decide who to hire.
Share Your Hiring NeedsAttitude
How candidates speak about past work, the feedback they’ve received, and the teams they’ve been part of.
Dependability
Whether their history shows someone who arrives on time, stays, and follows through.
Communication
How clearly they respond, ask questions, and confirm what’s expected of them.
Work Ethic
Signs they take pride in the work and see a job through to the end.

About CleanVantage

Let’s build your teamCommon Questions
A clearer picture
before we talk.
Answers on our process, our fee, timing, and what happens if a candidate isn’t right.
What does CleanVantage do?
We help cleaning businesses find and hire the right people. We go beyond collecting applications—we take time to understand your business, actively find candidates, screen for your requirements, and coordinate interviews. Our goal is to find someone who fits the job and your team.
Why use CleanVantage instead of recruiting myself?
Every hour spent sorting applications, chasing responses, and dealing with no-shows is time taken away from your business. We have the expertise to take that work off your plate and go beyond the résumé to understand each candidate’s experience, expectations, and fit. You meet people who have been screened for your needs, with a recruiting partner who keeps working to find someone you feel confident hiring.
How do you find the right fit?
We start by learning what success looks like in your role. We consider experience, qualifications, schedule, pay expectations, location, and the way your team works. We ask questions, confirm interest, and look beyond a résumé before recommending someone.
How does the process work?
Tell us who you need. Once we confirm your requirements and the agreement is signed, we begin sourcing and screening candidates. We send you a detailed profile of our recommended candidate for you to interview. You make the hiring decision, and your company employs the person directly.
How much does it cost, and when do I pay?
Our fee is $1,100 per successful hire, with payment plans available. It includes targeted sourcing, thorough screening, reference checks, ongoing follow-ups, and a detailed candidate profile. There’s no monthly subscription, and no recruiting fee is due if your hire never starts. Any additional expenses require your approval in advance.
How quickly can you find someone?
Timing depends on the role, location, pay, and qualifications required. We work promptly and keep you informed, while giving each candidate the attention needed to assess their fit.
What if the candidates aren’t right for us?
We listen to your feedback and refine the search. We won’t push you to hire someone you’re unsure about just to fill the opening. Our focus is finding someone you feel confident bringing onto your team.
What is your replacement guarantee?
Hire with confidence. If your new employee leaves within their first 60 days, we’ll conduct a one-time replacement search at no additional placement fee, subject to your agreement’s eligibility requirements and exclusions. The replacement does not begin a new guarantee period.
What makes CleanVantage different?
Our founder brings 11 years of experience running a successful commercial cleaning business and understands how much the right employee matters. We take a hands-on approach: learn your needs, stay in contact with candidates, follow through on details, and adjust the search based on your feedback. We care about who joins your team—not simply getting someone hired.
