Managing Director – Private Equity Investment Firm

Working with Julie was great. I know she worked really hard to find qualified candidates for us and we’re excited to have our new hire join us. Julie was very collaborative throughout the process. I could give her very candid feedback on applicants and on our process. She was responsive, often taking my calls in the evening after typical work hours. When the first batch of candidates didn’t meet our targeted profile, she took the time to better understand what we were looking for and provided strong candidate profiles.

Hiring Manager – Educational Programing

Erin was a pleasure to work with. She quickly understood the job profile and found a great group of candidates for us to speak to. Once we knew we wanted to move forward with our top candidate, she helped us to quickly confirm his interest and successfully move to an acceptance. I want to also give Erin credit for being very flexible with our hiring process, as there were two of us on the CPM side involved from the beginning with various scheduling conflicts, and she patiently helped us navigate scheduling and follow-ups with the candidates, and always provided thoughtful recaps.

Hiring Manager – Jeweler

We had an awesome experience with Emma. We have worked with other placements companies in the past and this was by far our best experience. I highly recommend SkyWater.

Hiring Manager – Workspace design & supplier

Tom was great. He clearly put a lot of energy behind finding us good candidates quickly. He was very responsive and the communication was always very clear. Tom was also very easy to work with.

CEO – Insurance Company

Our experience was great. We had good candidates to talk with and excited about the one we elected to move forward with. Time will tell the true value, but we are excited to have our new employee on board.

VP Human Resources – Healthcare

Matt has done a terrific job for us. He is responsive, great listener to understand our business needs, and provides excellent customer service. I will definitely work with him again and would recommend Matt to other HR colleagues. I have worked with many search firms over my HR career and would put Matt in the top tier.

Account Manager – Music Retailer

Our new hire is already completing his 2nd week and is really doing well. I enjoyed working with Lauren. She’s professional and has exceptional follow through. I will definitely keep her on my list to refer to other colleagues searching for potential candidates.

Vice President & General Manager – Industrial Mechanics

Jon has been incredible end-to-end. The talent he has brought us exceeds expectations, his communication is phenomenal, highly engaged, and he understands our business/culture. He moves fast and is aggressive which is critical for us as we grow. He has become our go-to recruiter for all things sales, engineering, management, Sr. leadership.

Hiring Manager – Technology Firm

Zac was great to work with throughout the process. He got me some great candidates to review and interview, while also using some to help calibrate his understanding of what I needed. All of which I appreciated.

Putting aside the talent pool aspect, what I appreciated about Zac was his clear communication and alignment with our goals. First, he did not create any arbitrary walls between me and the candidate(s), which was a major positive. Second, the way he handled the entire process showed he had the same goal as me in “find the right person to fill the opportunity we have” while also making sure he is “finding the right opportunity for the person in his candidate pool”. My point is I truly felt he was looking at finding the match from both perspectives, which to me is extremely important when someone is recruiting for me. Putting himself in both sets of shoes is what I believe maximizes the likelihood of a solid hire.

I definitely will look to work with Zac as future opportunities arise.
