changes everything.

The problem
A strong résumé is only part of the picture.
A hire succeeds on clear expectations, real capability, and the right management. Most hiring processes leave those questions open.
- Q1Can this person actually deliver?
- Q2Will they work well with this manager?
- Q3Are expectations aligned on both sides?
- Q4Who notices when the relationship starts drifting?
The interview is only the beginning.
The founder advantage

Built by someone who has lived the work.
TrySniper was co‑founded by Christine Thrussell, an HR leader with more than 25 years of executive leadership across Canada and the United States. Her experience connects the interview to everything after it: expectations, management, performance, and retention.
