Fewer, better, options. No wasted time.

You screen five. Interview three. Hire one. Week two: they can’t actually do the job.
The first shortlist is the shortlist that hires.

A practitioner reads every brief.

Three steps from brief to working candidate.

Workflow intake

A 45-minute call with the hiring manager and a Trundl practitioner. We map the workflow, tools, and the proof you need. The job description becomes a working brief.

Practitioner screen

Every candidate clears a hands-on screen by an engineer or admin from the practice. JSM candidates configure a request type. monday.com builders ship an automation. Copilot leads walk a governance scenario.

Fit guarantee

Every contract-to-hire and direct placement carries a 90-day fit guarantee. If it doesn’t work, we replace at no additional fee. We’ve used this clause four times in three years.

Three roles. Forty-one days. Zero replacements.

A US healthcare technology customer needed a JSM lead, a Confluence admin, and a platform engineer for a Data Center to Cloud migration. Their internal team had run the brief for nine weeks. One offer extended. Declined.
“Trundl’s recruiter had built the same JSM environment we were hiring for. He screened candidates on the work, not the résumé. We extended three offers in forty-one days. All three are still on the team eighteen months later.”
Director of Platform Engineering, US healthcare technology company

Questions hiring managers ask on the first call.

What does this cost?
Contract is hourly with a markup over candidate pay rate. Contract-to-hire carries a buyout fee on conversion. Direct placement is a one-time fee. Pricing is engagement-specific. A recruiter will give you the number on the first call.
No. Most customers run Trundl alongside one or two other vendors. We earn the next role by closing the current one well.
After 90 days, the placement is yours to manage like any other employee. We are available for advisory calls on performance management, role redesign, or replacement planning. No fee for those calls.
A named recruiter from the relevant practice. They run the intake, the screen, and the candidate experience. They do not hand the role to a delivery account manager.
A practitioner from the practice that ships the platform runs a hands-on screen. JSM candidates configure a real request type. monday.com builders ship an automation. Copilot leads walk a governance scenario.
If a contract-to-hire or direct placement does not work inside 90 days, Trundl replaces at no additional fee. Used four times in three years.
Sometimes. If the role is adjacent to our practices (Salesforce architect on a monday.com integration, Workday integration engineer on an ITSM migration), we can usually staff it. If the role is fully outside our delivery stack, we will say so and refer you to a recruiter who specializes.
We have run empanelment with mid-market and enterprise procurement in healthcare, manufacturing, and federal contracting. Standard documents: W-9, COI, SOC 2 attestation, MSA and order-form templates. Packet sent inside two business days.
Yes. SOC 2 attestation, COI (general liability, professional liability, workers’ comp), and W-9 ship with the empanelment packet inside two business days of request.
Yes. Public Trust and Secret cleared candidates have been placed into federal contractor environments. Name the clearance requirement on the intake call.
Trundl Talent staffs US-based Jira admins, JSM specialists, Confluence engineers, and Forge developers. Every candidate is screened hands-on by a practitioner from the Atlassian practice that ships the platform.
Send the brief to Trundl Talent. Median time-to-shortlist for Atlassian roles is 18 days. The JSM lead is screened on a real request-type configuration before the résumé lands in your inbox.
Contract pricing is hourly with a markup over candidate pay rate in USD. Direct placement is a one-time fee, engagement-specific. A recruiter gives you the number on the first call.
Yes for most Confluence admin briefs. Median time-to-shortlist is 18 days and a typical contract role closes inside 30 days from intake.
Yes. monday.com Work Management admins, monday CRM configurators, monday Service engineers, and automation builders are placed through the same practitioner-screened model.
Trundl Talent has shipped placements into US healthcare technology, including JSM leads, Confluence admins, and platform engineers on Data Center to Cloud migrations. The practitioner team has industry context, not just résumé context.
