Have there been times when you felt like working with other recruitment agencies was not much better than sifting through inbound applicants from your open jobs page? We completely understand. And here at Tangerine Search, you might have already noticed that we do things a bit differently.
The candidates we present to your organization are relevant to your hiring needs, pre-vetted, and already screened for the role and sold on the opportunity to work with your team. Just think about how much time you've spent weeding through submissions from other agencies. Working with us, clients tell us they're saving time and meeting top talent in the process.
Qualitative Competition
2025 tech hiring is heating up, and emerging from a multi-year downturn, which means the balance is going to shift in favor of candidates as more opportunities hit the job market. Strong tech talent will be presented with more options and growth opportunities at other companies, so now is a good time to think about what they're being offered in their current role. Employee well-being and job satisfaction are more crucial than ever.
In the long battle between remote work and Return-to-Office mandates, companies with flexibility are winning. We're talking with candidates who are in high-demand in their respective areas, and one message we hear consistently is the flexibility is a key driver when choosing a new job. These practices not only attract top talent, but also contribute to higher retention rates, as employees feel valued and supported.
How is your company meeting employees' needs? This goes beyond the obvious things like compensation and benefits, and includes a good team atmosphere with a sense of belonging, professional growth, and psychological safety. Think about how your leadership team provides feedback, whether they solicit satisfaction surveys from their team members, and the review and promotion process. We're happy to talk you through some strategies, you can book a call with us on our HR Services page.
A company that visibly invests in its people—from the recruitment and interview process and beyond—builds a stronger brand reputation and attracts top talent. A LinkedIn report found that 94% of employees would stay longer at a company that invests in their learning and career development. This commitment translates into a positive work culture and becomes a distinguishing factor in attracting prospective employees.
