Talented

Hi all! My name is Morgan. I'm the solo founder of Talented, the online marketplace providing early access to top talent. I built Talented in the midst of this uneasy job market we've seen in technology. I lost my job in early 2023, and began what proved to be an incredibly isolating experience of job searching. I felt like I had no community, no backup, and I was one of thousands of applicants for every job. Talented is a bit of a mindset shift in terms of how companies interact with future, current, and former employees. On Talented, companies are able to list employees directly on our members-only talent network. From there, companies can shop for talent and even negotiate terms that would encourage the acquisition of an employee. We take inspiration from sports organizations where trading players is the norm. In doing so, companies invest in the success of their employees beyond their tenure at the organization. Thus, we create deeper trust between employer and employee and we provide early access to top talent. This is just the MVP of our product. We have much more exciting features coming down the line! Thank you all for checking out Talented!
