TalenTrust Completes National, Broad-based Talent Acquisitions Colorado executive talent acquisition firm celebrates continued, top-talent placement projects

DENVER—TalenTrust, a Denver-based talent acquisition firm that aligns with companies to acquire key executives for accelerated growth, announces that the company recently completed two high-level, broad-based talent acquisition projects with both privately held and publicly graded companies—and both organizations plan to extend their respective key talent additions with TalenTrust into 2007. Advanced Energy, Inc. is a Ft. Collins, Colo., $325 million publicly traded, power and control solutions innovator for semiconductor and flat panel display manufacturing. The company secured three positions with TalenTrust, including an International Human Resources Manager.

H.C. Watson Corp., a Danvers, Mass., $40 million privately held staffing firm specializing in healthcare staffing and commercial staffing throughout New England, also recently completed a talent acquisition project with TalenTrust, bringing on key team members that include on-site, key personnel at Harvard University in Cambridge, Mass., and key talent at Baltimore, Md., and Portland, Maine locations. “The scope of both of these projects reflects the level of expertise, commitment and energy the entire TalenTrust staff brings to our clients and to our client’s specific
needs,” says TalenTrust’s CEO and founder, Kathleen Quinn Votaw. “We are honored that corporations of this size and magnitude have placed—and continue to place—such considerable responsibility and trust with us.”

In 2003, Votaw launched her talent acquisition firm, which she envisioned as much more than a typical search firm. She and her team work to attract some of the best and most gifted people in the country, and help clients integrate that talent into the companies’ overall strategic plan and vision. Votaw is a 2006 Association of Women in Communications Achievement Award winner, and speaker at the 2006 4th Annual Rocky Mountain Corporate Growth Conference, Women in Corporate Growth Breakfast. She also was nominated for a Denver Business Journal, Outstanding Women in Business Award, and serves as a board member of Women Business Executives and the Association for Corporate Growth.

TalenTrust has helped companies that include KForce Professional Staffing, Strategic Programs, Inc., Advantage Credit of Colorado, Inc. and Performance Enhancement, Inc., to name a few—to discover, hire and keep top talent that ensures companies’ accelerated and continued growth.

“Top talent is key to our company’s growth and success,” says Fiona Wood, senior vice president of human resources for Advanced Energy, Inc. “TalenTrust has over delivered in every aspect, and we feel TalenTrust is instrumental in accelerating our company’s continued growth.”

“As 2007 approaches, we recognize the need for seasoned, far-reaching executive talent acquisition services and TalenTrust brings all of that and more to the growth of H. C. Watson Corp. executive team,” says Jonathan Costa Saint-John, H. C. Watson’s managing director. “We feel very fortunate to have TalenTrust aligned with our company’s goals and mission.”

“We at TalenTrust thoroughly enjoy helping companies across the Front Range and the nation acquire the very best talent possible for their own growth,” says Votaw. “It is what TalenTrust is all about.” For further information about TalenTrust, contact Kathleen Quinn Votaw at 303.838.3334; or visit TalenTrust at: www.TalenTrust.com. --end— About TalenTrust TalenTrust is a Denver, Colo.-based talent acquisition firm that aligns with companies to acquire key executives for accelerated growth.
