Fractional Talent Acquisition

Fractional Talent Acquisition is a strategic approach to hiring where businesses engage experienced recruiters or talent acquisition specialists on a part-time or contract basis rather than hiring them full-time. This model allows companies to access top-tier recruiting expertise without the long-term commitment or high costs associated with a full-time internal team.
