TalentRadar™
Your AI advantage — forty years of human judgment about architecture and design talent, now with a modern engine working quietly behind every search.
A force multiplier for human judgment
For four decades, CFA has matched architects and interior designers with New York's leading firms the way no algorithm could — by eye, by portfolio, by judgment. TalentRadar™ doesn't replace that. It multiplies it.
Built in-house and used by no other architecture staffing firm in the country, our AI-assisted talent engine works quietly alongside our recruiters, keeping a living, ranked shortlist of the strongest candidates for every role we fill — continuously refreshed, continuously verified. The result still reaches you the same way it always has: a phone call from a recruiter who knows your work.
What TalentRadar gives you
A living shortlist
Every open role has a ranked, always-current shortlist of the best-matched talent — not a stale stack of keyword hits.
The right question
It looks past who used the right buzzword most and weighs who has actually done comparable work, at the right level, and is free to start.
Continuously verified
Skills, availability, and fit are kept current, so the names you see are real, reachable, and ready.
Faster, with less risk
Because the shortlist is ready before you ask, the right architect reaches your desk sooner — and the wrong ones never do.
Past keywords, to the right question
Ask a typical keyword search for a Revit specialist, and it ranks the people who simply typed "Revit" the most times on a résumé. That is not the same as knowing who can do the work.
TalentRadar asks the better question: who has actually delivered Revit work on projects like yours, at your level, and is available now?
Forty years of human expertise. A modern engine behind it. Still the same phone call from a recruiter who knows your work.
What it means for you
The right hire, before you ask
Candidates reach your desk already matched to your project type and seniority — often before you've finished writing the job description.
Work that actually fits
Roles aligned to your real experience and level find you faster, so you spend less time hunting and more time designing.
