Inside the session
See what happens inside the 20-minute session.
You share what you know about the role and what is on your mind. Your DIA (a Development and Implementation Agent) turns that into four aligned hiring assets you can use immediately.
The DIA drafts the structure. You confirm, adjust, and add real-world context.
Most hiring problems start before the interview.
By the time you are reviewing resumes, the damage may already be done. If the role is fuzzy, the job post gets fuzzy. If the job post is fuzzy, the wrong people apply. Then you are stuck trying to make a clear decision from messy information.
The role is unclear
You know you need help, but the real outcomes, responsibilities, and success standards are still mostly in your head.
The job post attracts noise
You describe the tasks, but not the person, standards, pace, ownership, or reality of the role.
The interview becomes a gut call
You like someone, they say the right things, and now you are trying to decide without clear evidence.
The 20-Minute Hire fixes the process where it actually breaks: before you start looking at candidates.
This is not another hiring template.
Templates give you blanks to fill in. The 20-Minute Hire gives you a guided DIA that helps build the role, clarify the standards, and turn your answers into practical hiring assets.

The 20-Minute Hire
What the 20-Minute Hire gives you
- A guided DIA that drafts with you
- Role clarity before the job post goes live
- Aligned hiring criteria and interview signals
- Practical documents built from one source of truth
- A faster path from “I need help” to “I know who I’m looking for”
You are not starting from a blank page. You are making better decisions with a clearer process.
Built for anyone responsible for the next hire.
The 20-Minute Hire is for owners, leaders, managers, recruiters, operators, and hiring teams who want better team members faster, whether hiring sits with the owner, a manager, a recruiter, or a people team.
- ✓You have an important role to fill and the details are still mostly in your head.
- ✓You are hiring because the business is growing, stretched, or depending too much on you.
- ✓You do not have time to build a full hiring process from scratch.
- ✓You have made a hire before that looked good in the interview but failed in the role.
- ✓You want a clearer way to define, attract, evaluate, and onboard the right person.
- −You are looking for a job board or recruiting agency.
- −You want a pile of resumes without first clarifying the role.
- −Your current hiring process already produces ideal team players quickly and consistently.
- −You want a generic job description template instead of a guided role-building process.
If the role matters, the process should start before the first candidate ever sees the job post.
How the 20-Minute Hire works
Bring one role you need to fill. Your DIA helps clarify the role, drafts the hiring assets, and lets you confirm or adjust what matters.
Bring the role
Start with the position you need to hire for. The DIA helps turn the rough idea in your head into a clearer picture of what the role actually needs to accomplish.
“I need someone who can own scheduling and keep jobs moving.”
Review what the DIA builds
The DIA drafts the role outcomes, expectations, hiring criteria, interview signals, and onboarding priorities. You review, confirm, adjust, or add context.
Use the hiring assets
You leave with practical tools you can use to attract better candidates, evaluate them more clearly, and onboard the person with stronger expectations from day one.
The DIA does the heavy lifting. You bring the judgment only an owner can bring.
The wrong candidates are not always random.
No-shows, inflated resumes, weak interviews, and people who look good on paper but fall apart in the role are often symptoms of a hiring process that started too vague.
They do not show up
You finally get someone scheduled, then they ghost the interview, cancel last minute, or disappear after acting interested.
The resume does not match reality
They looked qualified on paper, but once you start talking, the experience is thinner, messier, or less relevant than it sounded.
They say the right things
They interview well enough to keep you interested, but you still cannot tell if they can actually handle the role.
They need more managing than expected
You hired help, but somehow the work still comes back to you. The person filled the seat, but did not remove the pressure.
The 20-Minute Hire upgrades the front end of the hiring decision, so the role, hiring message, criteria, interview, and onboarding plan all point toward the person who can actually produce the result.
A players have options.
The best people are not just looking for a paycheck. They are deciding where to invest their talent, time, energy, and future. If your hiring message feels generic, unclear, or forgettable, the right person may never give it a real look.
Get better candidates to pause
A stronger hiring message helps serious candidates recognize that this opportunity is worth considering.
Stand out from generic job posts
Most job posts sound the same. Yours should feel more intentional, more credible, and more connected to the kind of person you actually want.
Reduce wasted conversations
When the opportunity is presented with more clarity and intention, weaker-fit candidates are less likely to move forward just because they can.
Start the process with more seriousness
The right message helps candidates show up with a better understanding of the role, the company, and the standard.
The 20-Minute Hire helps you create a hiring message that treats strong candidates like people with options, not names in a resume pile.
Generic hiring help is not the same as a better hiring playbook.
Payroll, benefits, PEO, and HR platforms can help with pieces of the hiring process. But if the role is unclear, the message is generic, and the decision still depends on gut feel, the same hiring problems keep showing up.
What they handle
Generic hiring support may help you:
- Post the job
- Manage forms
- Track applicants
- Stay organized
- Handle basic HR administration
What we improve
The 20-Minute Hire helps you:
- Clarify the role before it goes live
- Create stronger candidate attraction
- Reduce wasted interviews
- Make better hiring decisions
- Start the new hire with clearer expectations
Administration matters. But administration does not replace judgment, clarity, positioning, and a stronger hiring process.
The DIA guides the session and produces the core hiring assets. You bring the role. The DIA drafts the structure. You confirm, adjust, and use the finished tools.
Proof this changes the hiring conversation.
The 20-Minute Hire is built from real work with real owners and teams, and the results show up in better clarity, better candidates, stronger hires, and better teams.
“I was hoping to get a good admin assistant. I ended up with a hire of a lifetime. My gut hire helped me move fast. This system helped me hire for scale.”
“We had been hiring for the wrong position and had very high turnover. The process helped us understand who we really needed and how to get them. Hiring the right people was a huge step in earning The Best Place to Work award, no doubt.”
“This process helped us understand why we hadn't hired someone after six months of trying. My husband and I were looking for different people, and we couldn't agree on anyone. The process made it crystal clear who we needed, and we found our long-term team member in less than two weeks.”
“The right people just seem to gravitate to us now. We've been hiring great people, and we have the best team we've ever had.”

Still deciding?
Questions before you start?
A few quick answers before you use The 20-Minute Hire on your next real role.
What exactly is The 20-Minute Hire?
A focused session that turns the role in your head into practical hiring assets: a clear role definition, a strong job post, a scorecard for evaluating candidates, and an onboarding plan. You answer a short set of questions about the role, the need, and the team, and the system builds each piece so everything points to the same outcome.
Who is this built for?
Owners, operators, and hiring managers at small and mid-size businesses who are responsible for making a real hire soon and want a stronger playbook than the usual job post and gut-feel interview. If you have ever hired the wrong person because the role was not clear enough going in, this is for you.
How long does it actually take?
Twenty focused minutes. That is the input time. You leave with assets you can use immediately: a job post that attracts the right people, criteria that keep the wrong ones out, and a plan for the first thirty days.
What do I get at the end?
A complete hiring kit for one role: a role profile, a job post, a scorecard, interview questions tied to real criteria, and a thirty-day onboarding plan. You also get lifetime access to the bonuses: the Hire or Fix Decision Filter, the Epic Business Story Builder, the Natural Interview Decoder, the Fast-Fit Rapport Builder, the 2-Minute Team Evaluator, and the Exit Like a Hero Guide.
Is this a course?
No. It is a single-use tool that produces assets. You do not watch videos or take quizzes. You answer questions about a real role, review the work, and walk away with hiring documents you can put to use today.
Do I need to be the business owner?
No. You just need to be the person responsible for improving this hire. That could be the owner, an operator, a department head, a recruiter working closely with the hiring manager, or a founder building a founding team. What matters is that you know the role and want a clearer way to run the process.
What makes this different from a job post template?
A template gives you words to copy. The 20-Minute Hire builds a filter from your actual criteria: the real outcomes the role must produce, the real skills that matter, and the real standards the candidate must meet. The result is a post that attracts the right people and a scorecard that makes interviews decisive.
Can I use this for multiple hires?
Yes. The system is built around one role at a time so the assets stay sharp. You can run it again for every new role. If you hire regularly, Hiring Pro gives you the full suite of tools for repeated use.
What if I don't like it?
Run it on a real role. If it does not give you more clarity, confidence, and useful hiring tools, email within thirty days for a full refund. No questionnaire. No form. Just your money back.
Is my information private?
Yes. Your answers and generated assets belong to you. We do not sell or share your data. We use it only to produce your hiring kit and to improve the experience. You can request deletion at any time by contacting support.
Does it work for remote, hybrid, or in-person roles?
Yes. The system adapts to your working model. Whether the role is fully remote, hybrid, or on-site, the output reflects the actual conditions the hire will work in.
How is this different from working with you directly?
Max Kozlovsky's private advisory work is a higher-touch engagement over time. The 20-Minute Hire gives you the core hiring playbook in a single focused session you can run yourself, at a fraction of the cost.
