Talent2

Talent2, founded in 2003, has rebranded and decommissioned the Talent2 name to realign its recruitment services under three specialized global brands within Allegis Group. This strategic shift was informed by research with clients and candidates and is designed to provide deeper expertise across key professional categories while supporting both contract and permanent hiring. Aerotek now serves industrial and technical talent needs across engineering, clinical and scientific, property and construction, and supply chain and logistics. TEKsystems focuses on information technology professionals spanning applications, end user support, leadership, network infrastructure, and PMO and project management. Aston Carter concentrates on business professionals in accounting and finance, audit, risk and compliance, banking and financial services, human resources, operations, sales, marketing, communications and digital, and strategy, change and transformation. Backed by Allegis Group, a global leader in talent solutions, this rebrand brings clients a broader footprint, specialized delivery teams, and scalable processes that improve speed, quality, and compliance across diverse markets. Organizations benefit from targeted talent communities, market intelligence, and sourcing strategies tailored to distinct skill sets, while candidates gain access to clear career pathways, sector specific coaching, and opportunities aligned to their capabilities and goals. The combined portfolio delivers flexible engagement models for permanent recruitment and contract staffing, enabling companies to respond to changing project demands and to secure hard to find skills in technology, manufacturing and engineering, and financial services, as well as adjacent domains such as healthcare, construction, and logistics. By uniting niche focus areas with the resources of a large global network, the former Talent2 proposition continues to evolve through Aerotek, TEKsystems, and Aston Carter, offering a consistent, high quality experience for employers and professionals seeking lasting results.
