90% of my success comes from DIRECT SOURCING —reaching out to candidates through various platforms, leveraging my extensive network, and tapping into referrals. Only about 10% of my placements come from job postings.   This approach allows me to present only the top two to four most qualified candidates to technology leaders like yourself, significantly lowering the risk and ensuring a higher quality match.   After more than two decades in the industry, my focus on quality over quantity has not only earned me a trusted reputation but also repeat business from satisfied customers.   So, if you're a tech leader feeling the frustration of current recruitment efforts and are curious about how my 25 years of experience can streamline your hiring process, let's connect. Reach out, and let's explore how we can make your next tech hire the best one yet. #talisconsultinggroup #careergrowth #jobhuting #techcareers #softwaredevelopment #devopsjobs #startupfounder #startupfunding #cybersecurityjobs #founders #cybersecurity #ecommerce #entrepreneurship #visainc #epayments #telemedicine #connectedworkforce #healthcareIT

I've been talking with a lot of tech decision-makers and internal recruitment teams, and a lot of them are really feeling the weight of having to sift- through hundreds if not thousands of resumes when they do public job postings. But here's a little-known fact: only about 10% of my placements come from job postings. The bulk of my success, and the other 90%, stems from direct sourcing—reaching out to candidates through various platforms, leveraging my extensive network, and tapping into referrals. This approach allows me to present only the top two to four most qualified candidates to technology leaders like yourself, significantly lowering the risk and ensuring a higher quality match. After more than two decades in the industry, my focus on quality over quantity has not only earned me a trusted reputation but also repeat business from satisfied customers.

Technology leaders! As we've seen, a lot can change from year to year in the job market. Just like how it’s beneficial for candidates to keep their options open even when they’re happily employed and to never let their networking skills atrophy, it’s equally important for companies to have options too, even if there are no immediate openings This is where proactive recruiting shines. As your third-party recruiting partner, not only will I help you fill your current open positions, but I will also recruit AHEAD OF THE NEED! As my client, I’ll develop a deep relationship with you, prioritizing staying updated on your organization’s current landscape. This knowledge allows me to proactively source and present ideal candidates before you even request them. If you're a tech leader and would like to explore how we can partner to fulfill your tech recruiting needs, please feel free to reach out. #talisconsultinggroup #recruiting #recruiters #headhunting #careers  #careergrowth #jobhuting #techcareers #softwaredevelopment #devopsjobs #startupfounder #startupfunding #cybersecurityjobs #founders #cybersecurity #ecommerce #entrepreneurship

Recruitment is about people and connections! One of the things that motivates me most in recruitment is the people I meet along the way. I always prioritize being open and friendly because that’s how I like to work. I don’t have to be a robot. I’m not just here to serve one side, I’m here to help everyone find their perfect fit. Building relationships and trust is key. After all, a great hire isn’t just about technical skills, it’s about finding the right match for both the company and the candidate. I'm grateful for the connections I've made in this industry, and I still keep in touch with many of them. We talk about not just work-related topics, but also about life, travel and other shared interests, and that’s great! If you're in the cybersecurity space and looking for your next role, or just want to chat about career moves, feel free to reach out. We’re all in this together! 😊 #Recruitment #BuildingConnections #CyberSecurityCareers #RelationshipBuilding #CyberSecurityRecruiter #Networking
