About TOPTLNT

Senior TA expertise, boutique attention.

TOPTLNT was built for companies that need more than a staffing agency but less overhead than a full internal recruiting team. Whether you're scaling rapidly, replacing a key leader, or rebuilding your TA infrastructure from the ground up, we bring Director-level experience directly to your hiring challenges.


We work as a true extension of your team. That means understanding your culture, your managers, and what success actually looks like in each role. Not just matching keywords to job descriptions.


Work with Us

What We Do

Four ways we can help you hire better.

Every engagement is scoped to your specific needs. No bloated retainers, no unnecessary overhead.

Fractional TA Leadership

Embedded senior recruiting leadership on a part-time or project basis. All the strategic oversight of a Director of TA, without the full-time cost.

Executive & Contingent Hiring

We work both retained and contingent depending on the role and the arrangement in place. Either way, we go beyond the active candidate pool to surface the right person, not just the most available one.

TA Systems Consulting

ATS selection, process design, interview frameworks, and recruiter enablement. Build the infrastructure that makes great hiring repeatable.

TA Audit

A clear-eyed assessment of your current recruiting function: processes, metrics, tools, and team. Understand what's working, what isn't, and what to do about it.
