Our four founding partners came from the corner office, not the recruiting floor. We've been the candidate, the hiring manager, and the board member trying to make a key decision. Now we use that experience to find the people who'll do those jobs next.
Most search firms are organized like sales teams — a recruiter at the top, a stack of researchers below, and a quota at the end of the month. We were exhausted by the experience as candidates and disappointed by it as clients.
So we built Trifecta the way the best law firms operate. Each engagement has a partner-in-charge who stays on the search end-to-end. We take fewer searches per partner than the industry average. We refuse contingent work. And we publish our retention numbers because we'd want to know them too.
Contingent search rewards speed over fit. We refuse it.
The partner you meet on day one runs the search through close.
Six active searches per partner. The rest of the time is for the work.
Anyone can call the names on a résumé. We call the ones that aren't.
Success is the candidate still thriving two years on — not signing day.
