About Hael Talent

Built for People Who Take Recruiting Seriously

We don't believe hiring is broken. We believe too often, people simply don't understand each other. Hael Talent exists to close that gap.

Most people in hiring roles were never formally taught how to do it. They figured it out on the job, through trial and error — and a few hires they'd rather forget. Hael Talent exists to close that training gap.

Founded in 2026 by Leah Dorbyk, a recruiter with 15+ years of experience across agency, corporate, government, and startup environments, Hael Talent offers self-paced online courses and templates built from real searches, real placements, and real mistakes.
