About Talent

What About Talent does

About Talent is a workforce solutions brand operating as a specialized division of Roth Staffing Companies, L.P., a privately held US staffing conglomerate headquartered in Englewood, Colorado, with operations dating to 1994. Established in 2022, About Talent delivers an integrated portfolio of contingent and outsourced workforce services — Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO), Managed Service Provider (MSP), Vendor Management System (VMS), 1099/Independent Contractor management, Statement of Work (SOW) project staffing, Freelance Talent Management, and Payroll Management — to organizations across industries that need to plan, source, and manage flexible workforces under multiple engagement models.

The company's go-to-market is sales-led and direct: engagements are initiated through a national phone line (844-877-5680) and a structured web inquiry form (request type: RPO/MSP/VMS/1099/SOW/Freelance), with dedicated account teams delivering service. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. There is no self-service, marketplace, or e-commerce distribution channel. Distribution leverage comes from internal cross-referrals between About Talent and four sister brands under Roth Staffing Companies: Ultimate Staffing Services (administrative, customer service, HR, purchasing, sales, assembly), Ledgent Finance & Accounting (finance and accounting professionals, executive search), Ledgent Technology (IT support through CIO-level roles), and Adams & Martin Group (legal staffing, attorney search, litigation support).

The underlying technology stack is not publicly disclosed. The company markets an "Integrating touch with technology" delivery model that pairs human account teams with workforce management tooling (notably the VMS offering), but no proprietary platform, no API/SDK, no AI/ML capabilities, no patents, no certifications, and no third-party integrations are documented in the available source data. Revenue, financial results, funding history, M&A activity, leadership bios, customer logos, and headcount for the About Talent brand specifically are not disclosed; reported firmographic headcount (501–1,000) most likely reflects the broader Roth Staffing Companies operating group rather than About Talent alone.
