Talentry was founded by two folks with over 30 combined years of expertise in the IT, scientific, and technical industries in Southern California. Our proven experience with executive search, staff augmentation, training, and headhunting makes us particularly effective at delivering customized solutions for our clients.
We provide:
- Technical recruiting - staffing and headhunting in IT/Engineering and other technical spaces.
- Non-Technical recruiting - staffing and headhunting for Sales and Marketing, Accounting and Finance, Operations, Logistics, Quality, and other functional areas.
- Training – organizational development and workforce optimization training. Particularly popular are training sessions geared toward enhancing the ability of hiring managers to effectively attract, select, and hire candidates.
We have been successful through the “ups and downs” because we focused on one simple axiom: Companies have business problems that need to be solved. In today’s landscape, the solution isn’t always clear. Having the right people on hand to help solve these problems has never been so challenging for our clients. Large professional services firms have been extremely costly to them, and have delivered mixed results.
We founded Talentry simply to solve difficult problems that lie along that most challenging border: the intersection of people and technology. We’ve been successful leveraging our core strengths: Creativity, Adaptability, Integrity, and a relentless focus on Solution Delivery!
But enough about us — let’s talk about you! Are you having trouble finding the right solution to deliver your best to your internal or external clients? Do you have the right people for the job? Do you have budget overruns on major initiatives? Are vendors or nationally branded consulting firms “holding you hostage?” Do you need someone to pick up the slack while an employee is on vacation? We can help!
