When to use FunctionTA.

  • Creating a talent acquisition function requires leadership to set the strategy and recruiters to execute, which can be costly. FunctionTA develops the strategy, sets up proven processes, provides the tools, and executes on hiring only when you need it. Plug us in during hiring waves and out when you are not.

  • Whether you already have a recruiter in place or are anticipating future hiring needs, FunctionTA provides strategic TA leadership. We help set the direction, support your team, and ensure your hiring goals are achieved without the need for a permanent hire.

  • When you don’t have enough open positions to justify a full-time recruiter, FunctionTA fills the gap. We provide expert recruitment support on an as-needed basis, ensuring you still get top talent without the overhead.

  • Whether you’ve already reduced your internal TA team or don’t have the budget to keep them on, FunctionTA steps in. We provide the support you need to maintain hiring momentum without the long-term costs of a full-time team.

  • When your hiring demand doesn’t require a full-time team, FunctionTA can give you all the benefits of a full talent acquisition function on a part-time/ fractional basis, tailored to your needs.

Ideal for startups and scaleups.

FunctionTA is designed to grow with your business, providing flexible, scalable talent solutions when you need them most.

Your questions, answered.

  • FunctionTA is ideal for companies that don’t have a complete talent acquisition function, TA leadership, or need end-to-end support on specific hiring projects. We manage the entire recruitment process from strategy to execution.

    ProjectTA, on the other hand, focuses on short-term, one-off recruitment or operational projects, such as hiring a single role or improving a recruitment process. IntegrateTA is designed for companies with an existing TA team that needs extra support to meet hiring goals.

  • FunctionTA is typically 50% cheaper than traditional agencies and offers more than just candidate placement. We can either manage the entire talent acquisition function or seamlessly integrate into specific areas of your recruitment process. With FunctionTA, you own the data, gain deeper insights into your business goals, and benefit from a strategic, in-house approach - far beyond the services of traditional agencies.

  • FunctionTA is ideal for companies without an internal talent acquisition team or no talent acquisition leadership that needs a comprehensive recruitment solution, from strategy to execution.

  • If your needs are short-term and project-specific, such as filling a niche role, optimizing a process, or running a one-off hiring campaign, ProjectTA is the better fit. FunctionTA is best for companies that need ongoing talent acquisition leadership or to outsource their entire recruitment function.

  • ProjectTA is the perfect solution for one-off roles. Whether it is a niche position or a key hire, we deliver a targeted and efficient process to find the ideal candidate for your needs quickly and without long-term commitments. Book a discovery call to learn more.
