Filling technical roles is one of the most expensive line items on a talent team’s budget. Between agency fees, job board spend, campus travel, and the hours your team pours into screening and interviews, the real number is almost always higher than you think.


This calculator helps you see it clearly. Choose your recruiting model, plug in your numbers, and get an honest look at what you’re spending per hire. Then see how an RTC community partnership gives you year-round access to 43,000+ women in tech for a fraction of the cost.


We’re not a staffing agency. We don’t make placements. We’re the community where women technologists already are. Companies that show up here consistently, through events, mentorship, and brand engagement, see more applicants and stronger candidates making it to the offer stage.
