FAQs XING TalentService

TalentList Core starts with a consultation with a recruiting pro. After clarifying your individual requirements, you’ll receive a selection of 30 talents that fit your needs within seven days max. You can then contact them directly yourself and initiate the next steps in the recruiting process. To ensure that your approach to candidates is successful, in addition to 30 free XING messages, you will receive professional message templates and a free e-learning programm.

The TalentList Pro will take you one step further: here we will also contact the talent for you and conduct an initial suitability interview so that you only have to make the decision in the final interview as to which talent you would like to hire. By then we have already checked their willingness to change jobs and any general conditions.

TalentList Ultimate offers the same advantages as TalentList Pro plus it supports you in two additional scenarios: when it comes to particularly challenging hiring activities, with an extended project duration of 12 weeks we will send you an average of 4-5 talents who are suitable and willing to change jobs. And if you want to recruit several candidates with the same profile at the same time, then we can send you up to 8 suitable talents in 12 weeks.
