Pan-European and US talent sourcing for companies hiring junior to mid-level professionals. We map, screen, shortlist and coordinate offer — you only pay when a candidate signs.
Backed by Europe's mobility networks
Six reasons in-house recruiters across Europe and the USA route their hard-to-fill roles through Piktalent instead of a contingency agency.
We translate your role into a sourcing plan: must-have skills, languages, seniority band, salary range, location, and cultural fit.
From Lisbon to Tallinn, Dublin to Athens — direct access to EU + USA candidate pools through 200+ partner institutions and our alumni network.
Every shortlisted profile comes with seniority signal, language proof (CEFR), salary expectation and notice period — no guesswork.
Sourcing, screening, interview coordination, offer negotiation and relocation — one coordinator from kick-off to signed contract.
Right-to-work checks, GDPR-compliant outreach, and contract templates aligned to local EU employment standards.

Seniority, languages, salary expectation and notice period you'll see on every shortlist — verified before the profile reaches you.
