Talent Acquisition
Talent Sourcing
Most of the time, your best talent doesn’t come to you; we’ve got to find them. How nice would it be to stop spending so much time searching? (aka, scouring LinkedIn for hours on end). Bring us in for sourcing and we’ll build you a pipeline of candidates so you’ve got a pool of strong candidates list of people to reach out to:
Ideal for: Organizations who need to free up bandwidth from their recruiter to focus on the rest of the hiring process, and their other core tasks.
Employer Branding & SWOT Analysis
Ever wonder how YOUR agency can be the one talent flocks to? We’re on the frontlines learning why talent leave their agency — and why they’d want to join yours. Let’s do an Employer SWOT: we’ll share how you stack up against other agencies, and how to leverage your strengths in the marketplace so talent chooses you.
Ideal for: Organizations who want to attract employees from the competition and motivate your employees to stay with you vs. going elsewhere.
Recruitment
You assign us your open role(s), and we’ll manage the recruitment process as an extension of your team, finding and screening candidates until you find the right fit.
Ideal for: Organizations without a dedicated recruiter or who want to significantly free up their recruiter.
Candidate Referrals
Wouldn’t it be nice if you could fill that open position virtually overnight? Let’s set up a referral relationship — your team manages recruiting as usual, and we’ll send you any leads we have. You pay only upon making a hire.
Ideal for: Organizations with sufficient recruitment capacity but who want another person in their corner, incentivized to send talent your way.
Talent Retention
Expand Your HR Bandwidth:
Fractional & Project-based Support
Need some interim, part-time, or project-based HR support? Bring us in for:
Director of Employee Experience: Focused on developing engaged, collaborative cultures with employees who retain your clients.
HR Business Partner (HRBP): Strategic HR support on initiatives that align with your organizational goals.
Chief of Staff: Assists senior leadership in building relationships with employees, navigating multi-generational and remote work environments.
Ideal for: Organizations needing additional HR support without the commitment of a full-time hire.
Employee Retention & Engagement
How can we retain our employees and motivate them to go above and beyond? Let’s team up: we’ll review your organization’s qualitative and quantitative engagement and turnover data and propose organization-specific solutions.
Ideal for: Organizations striving to increase employee engagement and create a high-performance culture.
Reduction in Force (RIF) Consulting & Outplacement
Strategic consulting for conducting RIFs in an employee-centric, goodwill-generating manner, including finding alternatives to RIFs, strategizing severance packages, and providing outplacement services.
Ideal for: Organizations needing to conduct RIFs while maintaining a positive reputation, reducing litigation risk, and supporting affected employees.
