Absolutely amazing experience. Suzanne was a pleasure to work with. Would work with her again anytime.

Josh is one of the best recruiters I’ve worked with. He knows and cares about his clients on both sides of the hiring process, and I truly appreciate it.

Terrific experience! Mandy was, as always, a pleasure to deal with and available whenever needed. LOTS of strong candidates and quick turnaround. Thank you!

Senior Recruiter, Global Investment Firm – November 2020

Had a great experience. Haeley kept in touch with me throughout the interview process and coached me as well.

Paralegal Manager, Global Law Firm – November 2020

Josh has been an excellent partner to have on my high level/hard to fill searches. I like his consultative approach rather than a “sales push”. He continues to push forward on hard searches, unlike other agencies that may give up after submitting a few candidates. Josh also does the right amount of checking in regarding next steps. True partnership every step of the way and goes above and beyond in helping with the candidate offer-management process.
