Performance Summary
Testimonials
“I highly recommend Josh - In my experience, he's an exceptional executive and seasoned sales recruiter. Josh went above and beyond with honesty and transparency, often bridging communications and ensuring all aspects of a subject relating to the hiring cycle were covered. He represented the company that hired me well, and moreover, he represented me superbly; often making me feel like he was a partner; which he was. I think any company seeking to find, recruit and retain exceptional candidates would be well served by hiring Josh and his firm.”
“Josh recently helped me join a young cyber security company. Josh knows his clients well and he did a great job of setting expectations, providing a clear roadmap and then sticking with me through the process. He is a talented recruiter and he made the impersonal process of job hunting and recruiting straightforward and humane. Thanks Josh!”
“I was lucky enough to work directly with Josh during my most recent transition in to a new company. Josh is not only a great guy whom you can trust fully, but he is also a dedicated and conscientious professional. When I am looking for great talent to add to my team or should I need help with my own journey, Josh is my go to guy.”
“Nick has consistently demonstrated excellence in his role and has been instrumental in helping me fill numerous positions within our organization. Nick's professionalism, attention to detail, and dedication to finding the right candidates make him an invaluable asset to any hiring process. He possesses a keen understanding of our company's needs and culture, which enables him to source candidates who are not only qualified but also fit seamlessly into our team. Working with Nick has been a pleasure, and I have full confidence in his abilities to deliver exceptional results.”
“I've worked with many recruiters across my career. Josh is one of the best I've worked with. We hired him to help us build our founding sales team with specific personas in mind. Our personas were specific and non-standard. Josh went to work and brought us incredibly aligned and well qualified candidates. He ran strong process, communicated well, and when necessary, kept us on pace. Josh is a very high-quality recruiter and operator.”
“Fantastic to work with, sets a very high bar for the recruitment industry and a pleasure to know. Ryan is one of the few who still conduct business face to face (which is absolutely essential for us) and has never failed to deliver quality candidates, pre-screened and well suited for the role. A genuine, hard working character I'm sure I'll be working with for years to come.”
