How do you know?
How do you know if an opportunity is right for you? You're at the top of your field. You're in high demand. You get lots of calls for lots of opportunities. You would consider making a change if all the circumstance were right. You've seen colleagues leave for companies; some have had explosive growth and some have exploded. Maybe, in retrospect, there are some offers you wish you had accepted. So, how do you know if this one is going to sail or fail?

It's a tough decision
You can't be absolutely certain, but you can do a lot to minimize your risk. A lot goes into making a decision; your gut feeling about the opportunity, the players involved, their experience and track record. It's a tough decision and we know that. For us to attract the very best talent, like yourself, we have to represent the best opportunities. Consistently, we have been doing this for well over a decade.

Clients that have succeeded repeatedly
You look for exactly the kinds of things we look for when partnering with a client. Not just a gut feeling, but what is the market potential; how crowded is the space; do they have the financial resources to sustain the company; can the team execute and what's their track record. Our clients have proven time and again to be serial entrepreneurs, not accidental successes. Many have built multi billion dollar companies more than once.

The clients we have partnered with were not a result of accident but choice. We believed in their long-term success from the beginning. And they believed we would help them get there. We expected them to impact the technology revolution in the ways they did. But they make up a much shorter list than those we have declined not to work with.

Talent has worked with us for usually one of three reasons

  • They had a very successful past experience with us
  • They know someone who did
  • They declined an offer they now wish they hadn't

If this interests you, tell us a little bit about yourself and what kinds of opportunities you would consider. Wouldn't you like to have gotten that call when a Sun or Netscape were at 10 people?
