Welcome to Genu Talent! As I launch our new website and rebrand my company, I wanted to take a moment to share the story behind our new name.
I’ve been lucky these past (almost) 7 years to have had some great clients and candidates. My little shop has survived through a pandemic and the chaos of having 2 children! As more and more months passed, I began to reflect about how I wanted my business to evolve in the next few years.
I thought that it should start with a new name that encompasses how I think my company has succeeded these past few years – and what makes us different. I’m excited for growth in 2025 and beyond. And more great clients and candidates.
Why “Genu Talent”?
The name “Genu Talent” comes from “Genuine,” which perfectly encapsulates my approach to running a recruiting business. In an industry where authenticity, honesty, and human touch are often overlooked, I strive to stand out by being genuine in everything I do.
At Genu Talent, I specialize in placing top-tier software engineers across the United States. Here’s why I believe Genu Talent is the right choice for your technical recruiting needs:
1. Authenticity and Human Touch
At Genu Talent, I believe that business is not just about transactions; it’s about building genuine relationships. I approach every client, role, and candidate with authenticity, kindness, and honesty. My goal is to create genuine partnerships that provide the best experience for both clients and candidates. I take the time to understand your needs and ensure that I deliver candidates who are not only technically proficient but also a great cultural fit for your organization.
2. Technology Focus and Expertise
With 17 years of recruiting experience focused on the engineering ecosystem, I am fluent in coding languages and have a deep understanding of the technical landscape. I have spent hundreds of hours with engineering hiring managers and conducted thousands of developer interviews. This extensive experience allows me to identify and deliver top technical talent efficiently and effectively. Take a look at my 2024 recap blog for more details about the Technical roles that I placed.
3. Efficient and Effective Process
I understand that time is of the essence in the fast-paced world of startups. That’s why I focus on working smarter, not harder. Unlike typical agencies that flood hiring managers with countless resumes, I take a more targeted approach. I carefully pre-screen candidates and only present the best of the best for your review. This ensures that you save time and effort while still getting top-tier talent. My efficient process has resulted in more “one and done” hires than you’d expect, making me a trusted partner for your recruiting needs.
4. Proven Track Record
Since founding my firm six years ago, I have helped over 25 companies make more than 100 hires. My clients span across various industries, including AI, venture capital, hard tech, climate tech, healthcare, home lending, B2B and B2C marketplaces, and consumer products. I have a history of successful placements ranging from CTOs to staff engineers and everything in between. My connection to top talent across the experience spectrum means that I can move quickly to meet your needs, no matter the role.
5. Genuine Experience for Candidates
I believe that candidates are critical to your business and mine. Unlike typical agencies that prioritize speed over quality, I take the time to provide the best candidate experience throughout the process. I understand that finding the right fit is crucial for both the candidate and the company, and I am committed to making that match.
Thank you for considering Genu Talent as your recruiting partner. I look forward to building genuine partnerships with you and helping you achieve your hiring goals – whether you are a pre-seed startup, a mid-size business looking to grow. Or a candidate that’s just starting to passively look for something new.
