Connecting Hiring Teams to Subject Matter Experts in Talent Acquisition
At Talent Traction, we’re dedicated to simplifying recruitment by connecting businesses with top talent through a streamlined and efficient process. Our mission is to eliminate hiring challenges, delivering quality candidates that help your business grow and thrive.
About Talent Traction
Talent Traction has a rich history spanning over a decade. Formerly known as EBS, we've evolved our mission to focus solely on the talent acquisition space. Our founder, Mike Cioffi, recognized the flaws in the third-party talent acquisition model and launched Talent Traction as a remedy. In 2024, recruitment is rife with noise, making it challenging for companies to be heard when they need third-party recruiters. Talent Traction aims to provide a one-stop solution, helping companies cut through the noise and stand out as the signal. Our core values include excellence, resilience, teamwork, and ethical conduct.
Our Values
At Talent Traction, our purpose is to connect individuals with businesses, cultivating impactful partnerships that drive organizational success. But, our core values drive everything we do. These values: Resilience, Excellence, Ethics, and Team, are the foundation of our mission and guide our interactions, decisions, and goals. They embody our commitment to our clients, candidates, and each other, ensuring we consistently deliver high-quality results while fostering a supportive and transparent work environment in our pursuit in impacting 10,000 lives over the next decade.
Resilience - Thriving through challenges, embracing change.
Excellence - Setting standards, delivering excellence.
Ethics - Guided byBullet list integrity, fostering a culture of trust.
Team - Celebrating success, facing challenges together.
The Talent Traction Difference
With Talent Traction Difference we detail our carefully designed process for delivering excellence in talent acquisition. Our process, integrated into the EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System) framework, is divided into five crucial phases. Each phase is designed to streamline the hiring journey, ensuring efficiency, transparency, and successful outcomes. With years of experience, we provide a clear blueprint for navigating the complexities of the talent market, empowering our clients to build high-performing teams.
A highly tuned operations process crafted specifically to find talent, regardless of how difficult it may be to find. Every job search is different and we know this, which is why we leave plenty of room in our process for client input and adapt on a case-by-case basis to secure the perfect fit for our clients. Below provides a glimpse of the means by which we are able to provide a proven successful service to our clients.
Target Setting
We kick off our process by aligning with our client's exact needs. We blend our experience in hiring with our client's needs and make a game plan, or a "Roadmap" that kick starts the process. The overall goal is to establish what we term the “Ideal Candidate Profile.”
Roadmapping
After the ideal candidate profile has been established, we begin mapping out the means of securing the ideal fit for the role. From understanding the needs of the candidate's desired background, experience, education, and skills we are able to have a clear idea of the ideal candidate. Regardless if the candidate is a needle in the haystack from across the country or the best local sales professional in the your city, we'll have a plan and the tools to deploy for our client's needs to bring value and impact.
Recruiting
With the target and roadmap set, our team of dedicated recruiters roll up their sleeves and dive into the hunt for the best candidates available in the marketplace within our client’s guidelines and budget. With open lines of communication with both the candidates and the clients, our recruiters maintain a clear vision on the needs of our clients, able to shift the parameters of the job search as needed.
Decision Making
We eliminated the noise of applicants and provide only a few of the best fitting candidates to our clients, allowing the clients to pick from a small pool of top talent. Many factors go into determining if a client will hire any specific candidate, and we understand this! If our client hires our submitted candidate, great! If not, we determine what it is that caused said candidate to not be a fit, adjust our road map, and continue to hunt for the perfect candidate. (Consult, Rinse, Repeat)
Post-Hire
Our relationship with our clients and candidates does not end once a signature is scribbled on a job offer. We take pride in the fact we follow up with both channels, making sure the client is happy with the candidate, and the candidate is happy working for our clients. If a candidate decides to quit within a time frame determined by our contract, we go back to recruiting for more candidates with no charge to our clients. We stand behind our services and will be here for you beyond the candidate’s first day.
