I believe Brady and I have worked together 3 times before to hire people. He’s my go-to’ for placements. He takes the time to listen, understand what the firm needs and then is thoughtful to connect us to people that align with our needs. He is honest if he doesn’t think that who we are looking for exists. Mostly, I appreciate that he doesn’t pressure us to hire, he cares about getting the fit right.

HR Generalist – Industrial Services Company
Our experience with SkyWater was great. Connor was excellent at following up consistently without being pushy or overbearing. At the time of this hire, we had several important positions open and I was not able to follow up as consistently as I would have liked and it was a relief to know that Connor wouldn’t let us fall through the cracks because of our busy schedules. Connor of us several options throughout the interview process to accommodate to our needs and was patient with our sometimes less-than-prompt responses!
CEO – Commercial Fixture Company
Matt did a great job. As you are quite aware, as a business leader I have a lot of options with regards to my recruiting needs. Over my 32 years of leading business, I probably have used a dozen or more recruiting firms for different roles. Most of them were out of state groups that specialized in what I was looking for at the time or are specialized in our industry. I like that you guys are local and seem to have a well balanced portfolio, and a personal yet down to earth staff which is much appreciated. Matt was a pleasure to work with. He was appropriately aggressive with our search and presented outstanding candidates that fit our needs. I will definitely use Matt again for our next search.
President – E-Commerce Distributor
Well, we liked how SkyWater Search handled it so much we signed them up to find another member of our leadership team immediately after our new hire signed. Our HR manager who’s been resistant to retained search in the past was so happy with how the Finance Director search went and SkyWater’s performance that I think we are now a full convert and are 100% behind using SkyWater Search again for our OPS director. Couldn’t be happier with how things went!
Vice President – Oil Industry
I appreciate SkyWater’s open communication dialog. I always knew exactly where they were in the process and they were able to give me feedback and insight from the potential candidates. Even after our candidate accepted the position, SkyWater Search did an excellent job coaching myself on different ways to stay in contact with our new hire during the period of time after he gave his three week notice. I think this was super beneficial in retaining him as a new employee because his previous employer was putting pressure on him to stay. I would definitely consider using Skywater Search again in the future for hiring needs.
Senior Sales Executive – Manufacturing Industry
Our experience working with SkyWater for this search has been great. We get high-quality candidates, and SkyWater Search did a great job pre-screening and finding people who would be a fit for our organization. It is very refreshing to be getting high-quality candidates versus just a high quantity. Not every search firm will vet their candidates out to the extent that we have seen from your recruiters, which is why we have returned to SkyWater to help recruit for additional openings.
VP Client Services – Merchandising Company
So far, our candidate has been fantastic and she is catching on very quickly. She’s already been down to meet with the Target team. As far as how the process went, all three candidates were good and two of the three I was extremely impressed with. Ben worked well to get the interviews set up quickly, was very responsive to all of my questions and was quick to follow up on all details once we made the decision to move forward with our selected candidate.
Sr. Director of App Dev – Lifestyle Company
Honestly, SkyWater was awesome. The process on SkyWater’s part was great. Adam had great candidates, and we were able to grow our team exactly the way we wanted.
HR Manager – Beverage Operations
SkyWater has been an excellent resource for our company’s staffing needs. Not only are they very knowledgeable on the industry, but they are also highly responsive to all emails and quickly jump on new needs. Matt listens to our demanding requests and provides high quality candidates that fit like a glove to our culture. Highly recommend working with SkyWater.
VP of Sales and Marketing for Industrial Distributor
Regarding my experience working with SkyWater Search, I was very pleased. On the front end, I thought there was a lot of attention paid to gaining specific candidate requirements for the position and that the candidates presented were vetted and were legitimate candidates. Persistence was good without being pushy and follow up was good as well. I have had bad experiences with other recruiting companies recently, so my experience with SkyWater was refreshing.
