I'm excited to announce my new venture with my partner, Veronica Parado. We are launching Fuse Talent, a San Francisco-based recruiting firm dedicated to helping startups and tech companies build mission-driven teams. You might be wondering, does the world need another recruiting agency? My answer is a definite yes. Despite tech layoffs heavily affecting recruiters in recent years, companies are still hiring and struggling to find the right talent. Small teams are being asked to do more with less, and internal teams often struggle to justify in-house recruitment during low hiring cycles. That’s where Fuse Talent comes in. We offer an agile, personalized approach that connects you with top talent who are passionate about your mission. Despite the promise of technology replacing recruiters, as technology evolves and tools become more accessible, it becomes even harder to stand out in the noise. We believe the value of great recruiters will continue to grow. Technology has given recruiters superpowers, allowing us to focus on high-value activities that attract and retain top talent. When I moved to San Francisco, my goal was to join an early-stage startup or launch one of my own. A few months in, it became clear that organizations still need help finding and attracting the right talent. Our team at Fuse Talent has led technical recruiting teams at big tech companies, served as the first recruiter at multiple venture-backed startups, and consulted for companies from stealth to Series F. With extensive experience in recruiting for Fortune 500 companies, venture firms, and startups, we bring unique insights into building high-performing teams. If you’re looking to build a team that can drive your company forward, let’s connect. We’re excited to partner with you. https://lnkd.in/gkCKi8YW #recruiting #startups #techrecruiting

in 10 years working with start ups, I've learned this... As a Founder, you will find that hiring top talent is the most important and time consuming task and you will likely fail at it. It can be easy to try to save money and "do it all yourself" by relying on job adverts or recruitment platforms. You can then get so frustrated you end up paying extortionate fees to that recruitment agency that wouldn't stop hounding you. Only to get bitten when that candidate leaves because they weren't properly qualified for the unique challenges of startup life and you only get some of your money back. But there is another, new way. What if you could partner with a fellow start up positioned to understand the challenges of a startup and uniquely qualified to identify the best suited candidates for start up roles? At a low cost. And a guaranteed hire in 33 days. If you're a Founder committed to having the very best work with you and find your startup ready, new hire by this time next month, comment "INFO" or drop me a message.
