Technology Recruiters

Securing talent remains a primary and prevalent challenge to startups and growth-stage companies.

TechCXO’s Human Capital professionals use innovative approaches to finding high-demand professionals.

Technology Recruiting Challenges and New Answers

Strategic and operational tech talent is in high demand and is a major recruiting, staffing and executive search challenge for startups and small to mid-size growth companies.

Searches for C-Suite executives like CTOs, CiSOs, and CFOs can take six months or more. The same is true for sales and marketing professionals like CROs, CMOs, and CSOs.

That can seem like an eternity to a bootstrapped organization that has limited funds and is pressed to quickly get a product or service to market.

Highly qualified tech executives and professionals can pick their preferred industry, location, and stage of company is in. Traditional compensation appeals can be less influential than who the founders are, company diversity, and whether its products and services are considered helpful or altruistic.

Technology recruiters must be able to both position and market the company effectively and match the motivations of prospects. Our shrewd technology recruiters understand that something that seems small may be much more important than base pay and bonuses.

What to Expect from TechCXO

For those companies in need of technology recruiting services, there are different options ranging from fully outsourced, turn-key project management to simple sourcing of posting and promoting job openings.
