WHAT?
The Transcend Talent user journey: selling process not people.
UX - CLIENTS
Our clients feel partnered, advocated and bridged to the outside world. They trust us like we are on the inside, treat us as an extension of their team, and they see see us as consultants not sales people. Many times they have told us that where once they felt vulnerable, now they feel secure.
UX - CANDIDATES
Our candidates know from the start that this is not just a transaction, they feel human and not just a set of skills, and we always aim to leave them feeling shocked by the results of our work together - in a good way! We focus on rapport, conscious and constructive feedback, and building mutual respect.
WHY?
Transcend Talent has been providing an efficient, effective and enjoyable staffing experience to job-seekers and employers since 2000.

Our job as consultants is to understand the needs of the employers and job seekers to help bring together the perfect match in expertise, skill and personality.
