Meritage Talent Solutions specializes in talent acquisition, talent management, retention, and workforce strategy consulting. We help organizations attract, select, and retain the right talent through customized strategies tailored to your business goals, values, and culture. Our services also include optimized technology enablement and leadership development to maximize hiring success.

Unlike other consultants, we focus on strategic long-term solutions that align hiring practices with your business outcomes. Our methods combine talent science (skills and competencies) with human-centered employer branding to create a competitive advantage and reduce turnover. Additionally, our founder, Kara Yarnot, spent almost two decades as a talent acquisition professional and executive before becoming a consultant, so she brings real-world experience to her recommendations.

Our services are ideal for HR leaders, talent acquisition executives, and business decision makers who want to refine their talent strategy, improve hiring outcomes, and retain top performers. Whether you're a growing start-up, mid-sized business, or enterprise organization, we tailor our consulting to your needs.

Our approach begins by understanding your organizational objectives and values. We then design customized talent strategies that include employer branding, competency-based candidate selection, and employee engagement programs. This holistic process ensures sustainable hiring outcomes and improved retention.
