Roundtable Talent

Roundtable Talent is a specialized recruitment consultancy based in New York that focuses on helping growing companies find the technical and product talent they need to thrive. Founded by Stephen, a technical recruiter with over a decade of experience in the tech startup community, the firm understands the unique hiring challenges companies face at various stages of growth.

Roundtable Talent specializes in technical and product talent acquisition for growing companies, from startups hiring their first engineers to companies in hyper-growth mode. The consultancy takes a partnership approach, working closely with leaders and stakeholders across client organizations to understand their immediate needs, hiring goals, and company culture.

The firm's methodology involves immersing themselves in their clients' company culture and team dynamics to authentically represent the brand during candidate interactions. This deep integration approach ensures that Roundtable Talent can effectively communicate the client's values and expectations to potential hires, resulting in better cultural fits and long-term success.

Roundtable Talent offers two primary service models: contingency recruiting, which is a risk-free traditional option where clients only pay upon successful hire, and embedded recruiting, where the team integrates into the client's organization for a monthly fee to boost hiring velocity and improve processes. The embedded model is particularly effective for clearing internal bottlenecks and evolving hiring processes to improve outcomes.

The founder, Stephen, brings extensive experience from leadership roles at notable tech companies including Citizen App, Everwise, Kurtosys Systems, Enigma, and Attentive. His expertise spans full life cycle recruitment, establishing interview processes, and orchestrating bespoke talent solutions, with a commitment to building core teams that are pivotal for organizational growth.
