HR Practitioners & Subject Matter Experts (SMEs)
Thank you for your interest in contributing to TalentCulture. We welcome content from current/former HR practitioners, business leaders and subject matter experts who wish to explore a big stage and showcase thought leadership with our community.
We are looking for unique perspectives that explore the future of work. All content must be original and not previously shared at other outlets. Please note this is a selective process, and you will hear from us if we feel your content aligns with our editorial goals. (Review the posted Content Themes & note the pertaining theme in your email subject line.)
Our loyal audience is a diverse, global mix of HR and recruiting practitioners, business leaders, analysts, marketers, and entrepreneurs. They engage with TalentCulture for the content, context, and connections they require to stay well-informed about the latest workplace trends. Contact us at editor@talentculture.com if interested in being a contributor.
If you are not an HR practitioner or subject matter expert, you will be considered a vendor & will be referred to our highly knowledgeable sales department. More information and contact instructions are below.

We have a large selection of products & services designed to address the needs of Vendors & Agencies. If you are a representative of a PR Firm/Ad Agency representing clients, an HR technology provider, a supplier to Human Resources, or a vendor advertising marketer, please send us an email directly at sales@talentculture.com for more information. Please note that we will not respond to your inquiry at the editor’s mailbox mentioned above.

Content Originality and Guidelines
All content must be produced exclusively for TalentCulture and cannot be published elsewhere in advance. Please read and follow these guidelines:
- We strongly prefer pitches and articles with SEO keyword optimization in mind
- Please frame your content as thought leadership. We are not able to accept sales-oriented content
- Preferred article length: 800-1000 words (can be under/over)
- Support your premise with verifiable data, research or stories that illustrate key points
- Link statistics or facts to original, credible sources
- Use active voice throughout
- Insert subtitles to help readers easily skim the content
- Aim for a paragraph length of no more than 200 words
- Aim for a sentence length of no more than 20 words
- Refer to AP style as a writing guide
- Every story must include a 2-3 sentence author bio, 300×300 pixel headshot and links to social accounts, handles/profiles (company Twitter is permitted)
- Ideally, authors are HR leaders and practitioners, business founders and executives, or authors, speakers and coaches who focus on management, culture or work-related trends
- Because we receive such a high volume of article pitches and submissions, we are ONLY able to respond if our editorial team is interested in the topic and author
- We appreciate your interest and look forward to receiving your input for consideration!
Promote Your TalentCulture Article
We encourage our contributors to promote their articles via social media. The TalentCulture team will also promote your article and make it shine! All promotions must cite TalentCulture as its original source and provide a link to the post at TalentCulture.com.
TalentCulture articles cannot be replicated in full on any other publication. However, authors may develop related or modified articles that include a link to the original article with a credit TalentCulture as the source.
How To Submit
If you have an idea for an article and you are a current or past HR or recruiting professional, business executive or thought leader focused on work life, leadership or organizational culture, please email a short “pitch” using the form on this page to outline your article concept. Because we receive so many editorial submissions, can’t respond to all inquiries. However, if we accept a pitch, we will respond as quickly as possible.
Thank you in advance for your patience.
What Happens After Sending Your Submission
Once we receive your pitch, the TalentCulture editorial team will review your pitch. If it is accepted, we will ask you to send a full draft. You may be asked to make edits or support your statements. Although substantial content changes are subject to author approval, we reserve the right to make small edits for SEO purposes.
