Henrik Müller-Hansen
Founder and CEO
"David and his team found 40 engineers globally who passed our tough interview process and accepted to move to our Munich location in less than 2 years. This was done using a rational process rather than randomly pushing people down the pipeline and hoping for the best."
Jean-Paul Schmetz
Founder and Managing Director
"Aneta is doing great work helping us to find best talent for our company. I highly recommend to work with her."

Joan Burkovic

"We consider ourselves fortunate to count David as an advisor to several of our portfolio companies. David has not only helped multiple Point Nine portfolio companies recruit great people across a variety of roles and locations; he also coached several teams to get better at recruiting and talent management and become better employers. Very happy to recommend David and work with him again in the future!"

Christoph Janz
Managing Partner
"Since 2008, ResearchGate has grown organically to over 300 people. Engaging our first executive search firm was not an easy decision. We couldn't be more thrilled with our choice of Talent Fountain. The recruitment process was exceptional and we hired an outstanding candidate. This won't be our only hire with Talent Fountain."
