TALFINITY
One Role. Right Candidate.
No Risk Until You Hire.
Contingency search for companies that need to move fast on a specific role — without the upfront commitment. You only pay when we place the right person.
A qualified shortlist.
In 14 business days.
Or we tell you why.
Most agencies won't put a number on anything. We will. When you bring a role to Talfinity on contingency, we commit to presenting a shortlist of 3–5 fully assessed, qualified candidates within 14 business days of intake.
If we can't hit that timeline — because the market is tight, the brief needs refining, or the role turns out to be harder to fill than expected — we'll tell you that directly and reset expectations before you've wasted time waiting.
Intake
Aligned
Sourcing
Assessed
Delivered
- ✓ 3–5 fully assessed candidates presented, not just sourced
- ✓ Each candidate evaluated against your specific brief — not a template
- ✓ Compensation, motivation, and timeline confirmed before we present
- ✓ If we can't deliver, we tell you early — not at the deadline
Applies to clearly defined roles at IC through Director level. Senior leadership roles are scoped separately. We'll confirm timeline suitability at intake.
No placement fee theatre. Just the search.
Contingency doesn't mean less effort — it means the incentive is fully aligned with the outcome. We run a real search, with real sourcing and real candidate development, because we only get paid if the hire works.
Role Intake & Brief
We don't start a search from just a job description. We take time upfront to understand the actual business context — the team, the gaps, what a great hire looks like, and what's gotten in the way of finding that person so far. The brief shapes everything downstream.
Proactive Sourcing
We go into the market with targeted outreach — not a job board post. We're building pipeline from the people who match your specific bar, not from whoever applies. That includes passive candidates who aren't looking but would move for the right opportunity.
Screening & Assessment
Every candidate is assessed before they reach you. We present a curated shortlist — not a pipeline of maybes. By the time you're talking to candidates from us, the filtering has already happened against your actual hiring bar.
Process & Close Support
We stay in the deal from shortlist through to signed offer. That includes managing candidate communication, keeping momentum through interview stages, and supporting the close — the point where most searches lose good people.
Contingency aligns our incentive with your outcome. We don't earn until you hire the right person.
That alignment is what separates a real contingency search from a CV-forwarding service. We run the same thorough, proactive process we bring to every engagement — because our success depends entirely on yours.
Not every approach is wrong.
They just have limits.
Most hiring approaches work — until they don't. Job boards fill the top of the funnel. Referrals get you started. Internal teams keep things moving. But each one has a ceiling. Select what you've been using below and we'll show you why companies choose Talfinity over the alternative.
