Freelance Moxie

At Moxie Talent Group, we believe in the power of connection. We're on a mission to bring together the best companies and candidates in the marketing and communications industry. Our approach is simple: we listen, we understand, and we deliver. We're not just recruiters; we're matchmakers.

Our story began over 15 years ago when Donna Menzies launched her highly successful Minneapolis marketing communications recruitment firm. Since then, Donna's "Can Do" spirit has been the driving force behind Moxie Talent Group. We've been digging deep, determined to find candidates that would not just fit but flourish in a world of business where personalities, work styles, team chemistry, ethical standards, and cultural experiences must not just blend but meld.

Today, we're determined to bring the best companies and candidates together, creating a new opportunity for temp talent that is unlike anything else in the marketplace. We're driven by the growing demand for candidates that are adept at jumping in, getting the job done, delivering on strategy, and on time. We believe in the power of freelancers who enjoy being on their own, driven by an entrepreneurial spirit and a desire to contribute to projects that are meaningful.

Our Services

We offer three main services to cater to the ever-changing work environment: temporary, contract, and permanent placements. Our core business started in permanent, full-time placement, and now we have the added flexibility of sourcing temp-to-perm candidates. We understand that sometimes temporary employees are the only option, and we rigorously follow all IRS rules for temp hiring. For contractors, we provide the freedom to accomplish projects onsite or off, based on their preference.

We're experts in the marketing and communications industry. We know your industry because we've worked there. It's our industry too. We're interested in talent, in savvy, in moxie. Whether you need to fill a position in a traditional or digital agency, a large, corporate, in-house agency, or an internal MarCom department, we're the obvious choice for clients and candidates with the savvy and smarts to compete.

What Our Clients Say

Donna is the best in the business for so many reasons. Aside from being a cheerful personality and fun to work with, she's an expert at recruiting for marketing/advertising in the Twin Cities market. She maintains quality relationships and doesn't dress opportunities up to be more than they really are (unless they deserve it). She's impeccable at finding the right fit, not just "a" fit, which is huge in this market. To top it off, her integrity in the business is second to none. She always gave me honest opinions and feedback, even if it might have meant she lost the chance to place me. That's rare and invaluable. I jump at the chance to recommend her to anyone and will be happy to work with her any chance I get in the future. - Ben Solberg, VP Digital

I was looking for a career change and was referred to Donna by an acquaintance that had worked with her in the past. Donna listened to what I was looking for in a new job and went above and beyond to help translate my skills from my previous work into relevant resume bullet points and strong interview discussion points. She is fun to work with, honest, encouraging, and really knows how to find the right fit for her candidates. Thanks to Donna, I'm happily working at a new job that's the right fit for me and a place where I can grow my career. - Brenna Rick, Account Manager

I've worked with Donna for quite some time, and she is a true professional. She takes the time to understand what I need and always delivers. She's knowledgeable, friendly, and always available when I need her. I highly recommend Donna to anyone looking for a new job or a new employee. - Sarah Johnson, Marketing Manager
