Client Reviews
"The experience was great. Rachel provided me with several great candidates. I chose 4 to interview, one backed out prior to the interview. I also had Robert Half looking for candidates as well as our internal recruiters, neither was able to provide me with a candidate that I could even interview, so your firm truly stood out above the others. Rachel is very professional and personable. Overall, I am very please with the process and will definitely call Rachel again if I am searching again."

"Zac did a really good job. This was the first time the I had ‘retained’ a recruiting firm….which really made me nervous because of the upfront costs but he presented us with some really good candidates. Our new Manager is working out well and has really dived into the project working with all aspects of the business… so that is very good to see."
