Dedham, MA, October 01, 2007 - TalentBridge International, a division of TAC Worldwide, today announced that it has been named as one of HRO Today magazine's "Emerging Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) Market Leaders for 2007." The magazine listed TalentBridge as an RPO provider with "significant deals in the marketplace."
"Our entire company is delighted and proud to be included in this prestigious ranking," said Tony Steadman, co-founder of TalentBridge International. "This reinforces our strong position and commitment to delivering Technical Core-Talentsm to national and global organizations. Presently, we are delivering project-based and outsourced talent acquisition programs for clients like Westinghouse Electric and Mitsubishi Power among others. These initiatives along with our unique approach and focus on Core-Talentsm obviously made a positive impression on HRO Today."
TalentBridge International views Core-Talentsm as those responsible for ownership and management of the most critical aspects of the organization. They are further viewed as people who create competitive advantage for the firm, can be clearly defined as the future leadership, and represent the inherent value of their company.
Mark Anderson, co-founder of TalentBridge, explained the company's approach. "For core or mission critical positions, the recruiting efforts are categorized as 'high touch.' Significant exploration and individual interaction needs to occur in every candidate conversation. Additionally the interaction with the hiring manager community is at the highest levels of an organization, so the TalentBridge search/recruiting leader is always a seasoned executive who can handle opportunity presentation, candidate interaction and capability, and fit assessment.
"Our search leaders also act as trusted advisors versed in articulating market related issues, the competitive landscape, and other pertinent observations relative to geography, industry, company, or specific job," added Anderson. "We believe that this is critical to the overall success of hiring efforts against 'core' positions."
Most of TalentBridge's recruiters have 10 to 20 years of vertical industry experience and technical domain knowledge. They have strong process recruitment and delivery operations backgrounds that include RPO and executive search organizations.
Elliot Clark, the chairman and CEO of Crossing Media, LLC, and HRO Today, noted that many smart and capable RPO providers vie for a position on the HRO Today list. "It's tough to be picked, and only the most exceptional up-and-comers make the cut," he said. "TalentBridge International has demonstrated expertise in helping companies source Technical Core-Talent to meet their goals and provide leadership continuity. In the RPO marketplace, the quality of the talent pool is extremely important and it is evident that TalentBridge delivers on this commitment."
