The Tall Trees Difference
Most of the trees in a forest blend together – but the tallest ones rise above the rest. Tall Trees stands out from other contingent recruitment firms in the same way. We bring industry expertise, candidate reach, and meticulous search processes to professional and technical roles throughout our clients’ organization. As result, we provide clients with multiple advantages, including:
Access to Talent
We speak the same industry language as candidates, and this builds our credibility and results in higher response rates when we initiate contact. We have access to talent others can’t reach, including passive candidates, expanding our talent pool even beyond our extensive established database.
Flexible and Tailored Services
We aim to build lasting partnerships with our clients, learning their current talent challenges and long-term vision. Combined with our domain expertise, this lets us personalize our service to their exact needs and offer flexible terms on a per-role basis. We also offer complementary services, including interim and fractional hiring.
Speed and Efficiency
For many searches, we can provide a short-list of candidates within 5-15 days of our initial meeting, and begin the offer negotiation stage in as little as three weeks from when we start our search. This shortened time to placement allows us to meet critical and urgent hiring needs.
Reliable Results
Our rigorous screening and vetting process for candidates includes the latest behavioral and cognitive assessments, in addition to thorough reviews of their skills, experience, education, and background. The candidates we send to clients are expertly matched to their roles, ready to make an impact from day one and grow their career with the company long-term.
