Talent Taproom w. Madrona & SeekOut
We’re kicking off Seattle Tech Week with Talent Taproom, a casual gathering for first-time founders, operators, and talent folks who enjoy mixing a little business with good food and even better conversation.
Enjoy light bites, drinks, and a lively discussion featuring Shannon Anderson (Talent, Madrona), Linda Lian (CEO, Common Room), and Jacob Tavares (Global Head of Talent Acquisition, CloudBees) as they share how they’re leveraging SeekOut to build high-performing teams & lessons learned.
Join Madrona Ventures and SeekOut to connect with your tech community and swap real recruiting stories—the messy, brilliant, and occasionally chaotic work of building early-stage companies.
Good people, honest talk, and an energizing reset before the week ramps up. RSVP to join the fun!

Companies can “do it themselves” with SeekOut Recruit or rely on SeekOut Spot, where AI + expert recruiters deliver ready-to-interview candidates or full hires. SeekOut, backed by $189M in funding, serves organizations from startups to the Fortune 500. Learn more at www.seekout.com.
