Built on Precision.
Driven by Partnership.
Focused on Performance.

Built with Purpose.

TalentQ was built on a simple conviction:
hiring should never be a guessing game.

From the beginning, our mission has been clear, to help operations-driven organizations achieve extraordinary growth by delivering talent that strengthens teams, elevates performance, and drives measurable business results.

We saw firsthand how traditional recruiting often fell short: transactional processes, surface-level screening, poor communication, and little accountability. TalentQ was created to raise the standard.

Over time, we’ve grown into a nationally trusted recruiting partner for organizations across manufacturing, supply chain, logistics, distribution, and corporate operations.

Our work is grounded in precision recruiting, a disciplined, strategic approach that blends data, behavioral interviewing, and deep industry insight to identify leaders who can perform in real-world environments.

What sets TalentQ apart is not just what we do, but how we do it. Every search is built around partnership, transparency, and performance. We recruit gainfully employed leaders, tailor each strategy to the role and business, communicate clearly with data throughout the process, and stay committed until the position is filled.

Behind every hire is a human story. That’s why we balance speed with substance, and rigor with empathy. We act as an extension of our clients’ teams, protecting employer brands, respecting time, and delivering candidates who don’t just fit the role, but elevate it.

Today, TalentQ remains focused on the same purpose that started it all:
to connect exceptional people with exceptional companies and to prove, in every market and every economy, that talent wins.

Let’s find your people, together.

Meet the Founder

Renee Frey

Renee Frey, President of TalentQ, a nationally trusted recruiting firm built to serve operations-driven organizations where hiring decisions directly impact performance, culture, and results.

With more than two decades of experience in the recruiting and talent space, Renee has worked on both sides of the hiring table. Her career inside corporate environments gave her firsthand exposure to the realities leaders face: critical roles sitting open too long, misaligned hires that look good on paper but fail in practice, and recruiting processes that lack strategy, transparency, and accountability.

Over time, Renee recognized a pattern — great companies were being held back not by strategy or vision, but by their inability to consistently attract and secure the right talent.

That realization became the foundation for TalentQ.

Renee built TalentQ with a clear mission: to raise the standard of recruiting by treating hiring as a strategic business function, not a transactional service.

Under Renee’s leadership, TalentQ has grown into a national recruiting partner for organizations across manufacturing, supply chain, logistics, distribution, and corporate operations. The firm is known for recruiting gainfully employed leaders, communicating with full transparency throughout the search, and committing to every role until the position is filled.

Today, Renee remains actively involved in shaping TalentQ’s strategy and partnerships, guided by the same principle that inspired its creation:

When hiring is done right, everything else moves forward.

CORE VALUES

Our values guide how we work and why we win.

At TalentQ, our values aren’t aspirational statements on a wall — they shape how we show up for our clients, candidates, and each other every day.
They guide our decisions, our relationships, and our commitment to delivering results with integrity.

At the center of everything we do is one belief:

We Get Talent.

That belief drives our mission to maximize opportunities — helping companies find their future employees, and helping professionals earn pay raises, promotions, and meaningful career growth.

GROWTH

We are committed to growth as individuals, as a team, and as a company.

We are curious students who continuously learn, refine our craft, and seek better, more efficient ways to recruit. We stay on top of market trends, data, and research, learning from experience and sharing knowledge to elevate the entire team.

We invest in developing individuals into experts, preparing them for future opportunities and long-term success.

AUTHENTIC

We value people for who they are as individuals and as part of something bigger.

We create an environment where people feel comfortable being themselves, sharing what matters to them, and respecting one another’s individuality. Trust is built through honesty, openness, and follow-through.

We do what we say.
We keep our promises.
And we build relationships rooted in respect and integrity.

TENACIOUS

We don’t give up especially when it matters most.

We stay focused, calm, and proactive when faced with the unexpected.

Even in challenging situations, we maintain a positive attitude, adapt quickly, and rise to the occasion.

We see things through to the finish line, never settling for “good enough.”

And we celebrate wins, every time.

EXPERTISE

Expertise is earned through preparation, listening and execution.

We educate our clients on recruiting strategy, market trends and data. Setting realistic expectations and guiding informed decisions. We listen deeply, analyze needs carefully, and communicate consistently throughout the process.

Our role is to connect the right candidate with the right client for the right fit — while providing insight, transparency and thoughtful recommendations every step of the way.

Our mission is to maximize opportunities because we get talent.

We help companies find their future employees and support professionals in achieving pay raises, promotions, and meaningful career growth.

Everything we do is rooted in a deep understanding of people, performance, and potential. We believe strong teams are built when talent and opportunity are aligned with intention, clarity, and trust.

Internally, we believe people work to improve the quality of their lives outside of work. When the company supports that vision, alignment happens and everyone succeeds. We encourage creativity, initiative, and personal fulfillment while providing the compensation, benefits, and growth opportunities that attract and retain motivated professionals.

Externally, we grow only when our clients grow. Long-term partnerships are built on genuine concern, honesty, and integrity and we are committed to serving our clients with care, transparency, and shared success.
