Twenty Years

About Talent

Trusted by more Twin Cities' companies than any other consulting firm.

Consistency breeds partnership.

Founded 20 years ago, Talent remains unique in the Twin Cities market by being one of the few consulting firms not to change ownership or focus. The team you trust today is largely the same team that local companies have always trusted to achieve their business objectives.

Over two decades, we have seen many major shifts in technology and the business community that have caused both growth and rebalancing of professional service firms like ours. We attribute our success and longevity to three principles:

  • Looking beyond today's needs.
    Talent has always possessed a depth of competencies, but we excel by remaining ahead of the market demands for consulting expertise. As businesses face new challenges, Talent remains ready to provide purposeful strategy, proactive management, and smart technology solution deployment. This is why we remain partners with more Twin Cities' companies than any other consulting firm.
  • You are only as good as your talent.
    Though commonplace to say, you can never overlook the value of your people. Talent has placed considerable emphasis on building both an attractive work environment and successful processes for managing the careers of our consultants. We enjoy the loyalty of some of the area's most skilled professionals.
  • Matching the right person to the right projects.
    The consistent delivery of talented consultants begins by looking at far more than their certifications or skill set. Talent prides itself on successfully matching people and projects in a way that values both our client's corporate culture and our consultant's career objectives. Our recruiters don't overlook the importance of communication and personal skills and their impact on your projects.


COMPANY ACHIEVEMENTS

20 years of leadership

Talent has maintained the same ownership and leadership throughout its history in the Twin Cities, which has resulted in clear vision of the needs of local businesses and a strategic focus on supplying targeted resources to solve them.

Surviving the .com depression

Unlike much of the industry, Talent didn't specialize in Y2K solutions during the 90s. The company remained financially strong after the market changed and continues to thrive today.

Getting it right the first time

We don't know if it is our skilled recruiters who work so hard to match the right people for each project or if our clients simply have the most rewarding projects in the Twin Cities, but either way, we have consistently maintained low turnover rates and high staff retention.

Sticking with the in-crowd

They say you can tell a lot about someone by the company they keep. Talent is on more local preferred vendor lists than any other consulting firm and has a very strong local reputation. You can draw your own conclusions.
