Why Rice & Bean

Three rules we won’t break.

Most hiring products optimise volume. We optimise for the two moments that decide everything on both sides of the table: being seen, and being answered.

Rule one

Employers who answer

Every posting names the company behind it and reaches a person who has to reply. No scams, no MLMs, no ghost jobs left open for a year.

Rule two

Applications with intention

Beans make each application deliberate, so employers read fewer and better ones — and premium buys tools, never preferential treatment.

Rule three

Decisions made by people

AI organizes evidence and quotes the candidate’s own words. A named person makes every call, including the no.

The product

Built from the parts of hiring people actually dread.

Three screens carry the whole promise: an honest brief, a status you can trust, and evidence a human reads before they decide.

Required means required.

Employers separate what a role truly needs from what would simply be nice, and candidates see both before they apply. Fewer applications, considerably better ones.

Role brief

Required

  • 2 years customer-facing experience
  • English
  • CRM experience

Missing one? The application is never sent under false pretenses.

Preferred

  • SaaS experience
  • Mandarin

Nice to have. Never a silent filter.

How it works

Four steps, either side of the table.

One profile, honest listings, and a status you can actually read.

  1. 01

    Find

    Search real roles with published salary bands and honest requirements.

  2. 02

    Understand

    See what a role truly requires before you spend a Bean on it.

  3. 03

    Apply

    One reusable profile, a few questions that matter, two minutes.

  4. 04

    Track

    Every application has a status, a date and a person behind it.

Beans

Fifteen Beans. One thoughtful week.

A Bean is one application. Every candidate gets 15 Beans a week, refreshed each Monday, and can earn more by referring people or completing a profile. Enough to run a real search — just enough friction to keep every application intentional on both sides.

Every posting names the employer behind it — and reaches someone who has to answer.

The search

A calmer place to look.

No endless feed, no reposted ghost roles, no salary guessing games. Every posting on Rice & Bean names the employer behind it, states what it pays, and reaches someone who has to answer you.
