HADDONFIELD, N.J. April 7, 2022–(BUSINESS WIRE)– True, the fastest-growing global platform of innovative talent management products and services, rose to become North America’s sixth largest firm in the industry according to the recently published Hunt Scanlon annual ranking. True registered 132% YOY growth and outpaced the industry’s largest firms, solidifying its “fastest-growing” designation for another year.
“We continually built and refined our services and technologies to meet the unrelenting demand we experienced throughout 2021.

“Our unprecedented growth is also a reflection of our company culture. We put our people first: prioritizing talent acquisition and reinvestment in our people and our platform. When our team members are supported, they have the tools they need to serve as trusted business partners to our clients, and that is the key to our success,” said Joe Riggione, True co-founder and co-CEO.

Additionally, True and co-CEOs Brad Stadler and Joe Riggione have launched a series of investment funds that combine stage and sector expertise along with True’s unparalleled access to talent to deepen client and candidate relationships.
