Digital Knack (DK) is a boutique recruiting firm that works with a small portfolio of tech co's to build high-impact, cross-functional teams that stick. We're a female founded, self-funded, people-first company. Our mission: Bring people together to achieve more than individually possible. Our values: Passion, Authenticity, Transparency, Holistic Impact, Sustainability Our commitment: Bring inclusivity to innovation by empowering companies to recruit and hire with integrity and place diverse talent at the forefront. Nimble by design, our business models flex to give early stage companies right-sized support. Expect us to bring business sense, creativity and credibility to the table. We're insatiably curious and mindful of the human experience that every recruitment effort entails. We operate as efficiently and intelligently as humanly possible (operational wizardry helps). When we aren't building teams, we're helping candidates position themselves in market; or working with clients to build hiring roadmaps & recruiting plans. You can find us training teams on how to be inclusive of all individuals; or challenging ourselves to raise our own bar of what we know and what we do. Everyone has a knack, what's yours?
