Talent Studio for startups and scale-ups

If you don’t hire often enough to need your own talent team, but are frustrated with recruitment agencies — there is another way.

We built the Talent Studio model for technology startups and scale-ups. From hire one onwards, you get your own talent team — and only pay if we deliver.

This means that each time you recruit, you're building hiring capability, not just headcount.

With full ownership of the systems, processes and pipeline we develop together, you're never starting from scratch again.

Built to scale

1

From hire one onwards, our model adapts to the evolving needs of technology companies - whether you’re making a single critical hire or building out entire teams.


Different economics

2

Because we run your hiring process end-to-end, we see what’s working in real time. This gives us confidence in the outcome - allowing us to break free from traditional recruitment economics.


Your infrastructure

You own everything we create together - from systems and processes, to market knowledge and candidate pipelines. Every hiring cycle builds your unique capability.

About us

Founders: Emily & Matt

We've both been in hiring since 2001. By the time Covid hit, we were so disillusioned with the industry we were ready to walk away forever.

We took some time to reflect on what we're actually good at, and what kind of work we genuinely enjoy. Our inspiration for Cohort came from a project we worked on back in 2012 — one where our skills and values felt completely aligned with what the customer needed.

So we founded Cohort on those principles. Finally, it feels like we're building something that's truly us.
