Your hardest roles
filled faster than ever

TalSource finds, engages and interviews passive candidates to deliver human-vetted shortlists in weeks, not months.

How TalSource works

One platform. Smarter search. Faster shortlists.

  1. Define your role

    Set your requirements and assessment criteria directly in TalSource.

  2. Find passive talent

    AI-enabled matching and human-led search identify candidates beyond the usual applicant pool.

  3. Engage candidates

    Our talent experts handle personalized outreach while progress stays visible in the platform.

  4. Review and compare

    Review chaptered video interviews, transcripts and structured assessments side by side.

Every candidate.
On camera. In depth.

Traditional search gives you a resume and a recruiter's opinion. TalSource gives you a comprehensive video assessment where candidates deep-dive into their background, achievements, and competencies based on your criteria.

  • See beyond the CV before investing interview time
  • Reduce time spent on repetitive screening calls
  • Make candidate comparisons more consistent and evidence-based
  • Review shortlisted candidates whenever it suits your team

What our customers are saying

…gave us too many good candidates, which is a problem we are happy with.

…I really like the video assessments to be honest, they provide a new understanding of a candidate not previously possible.

…I told our COO how TalSource found some of the best candidates I've ever interviewed at a fraction of what agencies charge.

…I went to the hiring manager with a shortlist of candidates and she told me most of them were already interviewed by TalSource, it was brilliant.
