Our Story
In 2016, fueled by a shared desire to bring order to the chaos of hiring, Som Nautiyal and Pratik founded Talhive in Pune. Their journey began with a simple realization: after working at product companies and alongside various consultants in India, they encountered a consistent gap—there was a lack of structure, and recruitment processes were riddled with inefficiencies. Companies struggled to identify the right talent, wasting time, resources, and opportunities. This wasn’t just frustrating; it was a problem that needed solving.
Cutting through the noise of disorganized recruitment was no easy task. But Som and Pratik were determined to find a better way.
At Talhive, recruitment is viewed through the lens of project management. As founders, Som and Pratik see themselves as project managers first and recruiters second. Their obsession with structure and process became the core DNA of Talhive. It wasn’t just about placing candidates; it was about re-engineering the way hiring is done.
With Talhive, every step of recruitment is intentional and measured. The foundation of this approach lies in their ethos: “Our North Star – Hiring Streamlined.” This isn’t just a tagline—it’s a promise.
Processes, though they might seem tedious or mundane, are at the heart of Talhive’s success. It’s the meticulous structuring of every hiring journey that leads to excellent outcomes. And this focus on systems has paid off. In a short span, Talhive has grown into a rapidly expanding human capital management firm, providing innovative talent solutions to both national and multinational companies, not only in India but across the globe.
Today, Talhive’s team works globally, supporting scalable companies by refining their hiring processes and ensuring they attract the best talent to grow and succeed.
Hiring doesn’t have to be chaotic. At Talhive, it’s streamlined, structured, and—most importantly—effective.
