Client Testimonials

Brian's approach to recruitment was appreciated on my first job move. He makes sure not to place candidates into an environment that is not the right fit just for the sake of a placement. He also had a great roster of candidates that we hired from after he helped place me in the role. I would certainly work with Brian again for any future hiring need

Jon is a great recruiting executive. He has a tremendous knack for finding top financial and accounting talent. Jon is a pleasure to work with and is a constant professional in his field. Works very hard for his clients to meet their staffing needs.

For starters - Brian was absolutely amazing to work with, and I will he referring everyone I know in his direction. I felt as though Brian was always 100% upfront and honest, rather than trying to hide details that may not be ideal in order to quickly place me in a position that I may not love. I genuinely felt that I was working with someone who had my needs in mind, not their own paycheck. He was professional, quick to respond, and willing to listen to me talk for as long as necessary to understand what I needed. He remained discrete and flexible in order to work around my busy life. If you’re looking for someone to help place you into a new role, look no further. This guy is the best!

Jon found me the job I had been searching for years to find! He understood my desire for a fast-pacing and challenging position with executive level contact and great potential for upward mobility. He then aided in my securing the position by establishing my talents and skill set with the employer and providing outstanding interview prep. To boot, the entire process was professional yet familiar. Highly recommend!

Brian was a tremendous resource and partner throughout the hiring process. He took the time to fully understand my expectations and went out of his way to showcase my strengths. He was absolutely instrumental in placing me with an amazing organization in the ideal position. I have no doubt he can do the same for you.

Working with Brian was a refreshing experience. He did an excellent job of targeting opportunities that matched both my expertise and ambitions. We went through a fairly lengthy process, and he was nothing but responsive, open, and understanding. If you are interested in finding a new position with a direct and honest partner, I have no reservations recommending Brian

I have worked with Jon Jennings over the past several years both as a candidate and a client .
