“I worked with Matthew for approximately 2 years when I was a hiring manager. Unlike many other recruiters who sent me large numbers of unqualified resumes or uninterested candidates, Matthew spent the time speaking with the candidates before forwarding them on to me, ensuring that they were familiar with the company and enthused about the opportunity. He worked hard with the candidates and me after the interview to follow up and support our hiring efforts and consistently acted in a professional way with a high level of integrity. I was very happy with the candidates that Matthew recruited who have all turned into solid employees. I would definitely work with Matthew in the future.”

“I think John is everything one would want in a recruiter - he listened very carefully to understand my background and my aspirations and then suggested the one opportunity that he thought would be the best fit - for both me as well as the organization - rather then simply push my resume around. Throughout the whole process John has been prompt in answering questions, transparent in his communications and extremely professional - without losing the personal touch.”

“Matthew is among the best technical recruiters I have ever worked with. When he presents a candidate, he shares plenty of detail and background, saving me time and energy. He finds out, in great detail, what his candidates are looking for, and presents them to me only if it's a mutual good match.”

“Jim is the most resourceful recruiter I've ever met. He implements a really efficient system that makes finding new staff fast and easy. Plus, it amazes me how quickly he masters the required skills for various job functions - from engineers to graphic designers - he just gets it. Jim has brought me some real Superstars over the past 4 years. I wouldn't use anyone else to staff-up my departments!”

“I have worked with Matthew Allen as a recruiter for several years at Interwoven. He took time to understand the details of each position and was able to provide with very suitable candidates. Matthew also followed through very well and ensured that things were moving along. Matthew was able to assist during the offer and checking the references of a candidate. I have been pleased with Matthew's work and will continue to work with him in the future.”

“Matthew worked with me to find a job and got me my position at Shutterfly. He is very good communicator and was able to understand what type of position I was looking for and was able to match my skill set with potential matches. This was a difficult task, since most of the companies were in the bay area, while I was living in Seattle. He managed to setup several interviews for high quality positions on consecutive days, and I eventually took the position at Shutterfly.”
