Farewell, 2024: That’s a Wrap!
As 2024 comes to a close, we are filled with gratitude for the incredible clients who trust us with their staffing needs every day. To the candidates who rely on us to find meaningful opportunities, and to the contractors and staff who bring it all together - each of you offer a critical piece in the Talascend puzzle. We thank you for your partnership this year and in the years to come!
Let’s take a moment to reflect on the key milestones that have defined our journey in 2024. Here are a few highlights:
Service Expansions
This year, we have expanded beyond traditional staffing to offer services like Statement of Work (SOW) and full-service Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) programs. These enhancements position us as an end-to-end workforce partner, delivering tailored solutions to meet any hiring challenge. Whether you need to scale quickly, streamline operations, or build a specialized team, Talascend has the expertise to make it happen.
AI Implementation
In 2024, Talascend became a pioneer in utilizing cutting-edge technology by harnessing AI to enhance candidate sourcing and streamline the hiring process. This innovation has enabled us to connect top-tier talent with our clients faster and more efficiently than ever before.
Award Winning Culture
Talascend was also named a “Top Workplace” by the Detroit Free Press and a “Best Staffing Firm to Work For” by the Staffing Industry Analysts (SIA) this year. These honors reflect our commitment to fostering a supportive, engaging environment where talent thrives. We are proud of our team's dedication and look forward to continuing to build a workplace that values growth, collaboration, and excellence.
Veteran Support Initiatives
As a proud veteran-owned business, we remained dedicated to supporting veterans in 2024 through specialized recruitment and community initiatives, helping them transition into meaningful employment that aligns with their skills.
Talascend’s Toy Mission
This month, Talascend proudly partnered with a local church in Western North Carolina to support Hurricane Helene relief efforts, bringing hope and joy to children affected by the devastating storm.
Our achievement is based on a confidential survey which evaluated key aspects of our employee experience, such as respect, growth opportunities, and empowerment, values that drive Talascend's culture and set us apart as an employer of choice.
Through our “Talascend Cares” initiative, each year, we are committed to making a difference and 2024 was no exception. Thanks to the unwavering generosity of the Talascend Team, we donated over 300 toys to children who lost everything, offering a glimmer of hope and joy during this season of giving.
Hurricane Helene, which struck in September 2024, brought record-breaking rainfall and catastrophic flooding, leaving communities in turmoil. Talascend rallied together to help restore some normalcy for these children, demonstrating the power of compassion and teamwork. Thank you, Team Talascend, for turning care into action and making a meaningful impact!
