Get found by buyers who already want to hire.
TalentPros is the directory buyers reach for when they're done getting burned by Google Ads and LinkedIn DMs. Claim your listing free. Apply for Verified when you're ready. Upgrade for visibility — never to buy the trust badge.
The directory works because buyers trust it.
Buyer-intent traffic, not vanity reach
Our pages target the long-tail SEO buyers actually search — "temp staffing agency Calgary", not generic "recruiter near me". The visitors who land on your profile are already shopping.
Verification is a moat
The Verified badge is reference-checked — three buyer references, every time, no exceptions. Pay-to-list directories can't match it. Most agencies in the directory aren't Verified yet; the ones that are stand out.
Reviews compound. Awards compound harder.
Verified buyers leave reviews on your profile. Annual Awards (data-driven, not paid) come with embeddable badges that build backlinks. Visibility grows on its own.
Claim once. Then choose your visibility.
Claiming is free. The Verified badge is earned through reference checks, not bought. Member and Featured pay for placement, not credibility.

The questions agencies actually ask.
- Can we pay to skip verification?
- No. The Verified badge is earned through reference checks — agencies cannot pay to be Verified. Listed, Member, and Featured tiers all coexist with unclaimed and claimed-unverified statuses; the badge is independent.
- What's the difference between a claimed and unclaimed listing?
- Unclaimed listings are built from public data — company sites, LinkedIn, public records — without the agency's involvement. They start at zero reviews and carry no editorial. Claiming a listing means you (the agency) confirm the info and can fill in the rest. Verified is a separate, earned upgrade on top of claimed.
- What happens if we lose a reference?
- We periodically revisit references. If they go cold and we can't get a replacement after asking, the Verified badge comes off and your profile reverts to unverified. Membership doesn't shield you from this.
- Are reviews moderated?
- Yes. We only publish verified-buyer reviews (invite or work-email matched). You can respond to any review, but you can't take them down. Defamation or clearly off-topic submissions get removed; honest negative reviews stay.
- What does Featured exclusivity mean?
- One Featured agency per service × city combo. Right-of-first-refusal on renewal — if you keep your slot in good standing, no competitor can buy you out next cycle. If you don't renew, it opens to the next applicant.
- When does Awards eligibility kick in?
- Q4 each year. Floor is 5+ reviews and a 4.0+ average rating. Algorithm: count × log(years active) × rating. Categories: service × city, sector × city, service alone, sector alone, overall.
