Horizontal's history

Since our founding, Horizontal has grown into one of the top 2% of staffing companies worldwide by connecting the unique needs of organizations with the distinct skills of top talent. Adapting to market shifts, evolving technology and changing workforce trends, we've stayed ahead of our competitors by focusing on people and innovation.

As a privately held, minority-owned business, we take the long view – investing in our team, fostering diversity and expanding our offerings like Talent Board, our AI-powered hiring platform. With 10 offices across the U.S., India, Malaysia and Australia, and a companion company, Horizontal Digital, creating exceptional digital experiences, we serve the needs of companies in search of IT, marketing & creative and business strategy solutions.

Our mission is to empower businesses and job seekers alike.

Simply put, we help the world work better.

Company values

Horizontal Talent was founded on 5 core pillars: collaboration, greater good, integrity, positive energy and hustle. These values are reflected in our day-to-day work of helping connect those looking to hire with those looking for jobs. Integral to this connection is an emphasis on diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI), giving back to the communities we serve and doing our part to fight climate change. We believe good business goes beyond making money, and we encourage you to learn more about our continued efforts to create a better world.

Diversity, equity & inclusion

As a certified minority-business enterprise, DEI is a central focus at Horizontal. This requires constant improvement of our own internal processes to aid our clients and source job candidates from varied life experiences and backgrounds.

Horizontal Cares

We are proud to offer our employees volunteer days off, as well as community initiatives woven into our day-to-day work. These efforts are encompassed within our Horizontal Cares program through a wide range of charitable actions.

Environmental sustainability

Our efforts to make the world greener go beyond reducing waste at our offices. We have recently launched a sustainability committee at Horizontal Talent and are evaluating ways to integrate environmentalism into our daily business model.
