Reviews

“Sarah is amazing. She helped us fill 5 Boston-based Marketing positions in under 4 months in a historically tight labor market – an unheard of feat! For each search, Sarah quickly calibrated her criteria to bring forward remarkable candidates in record time. She’s super responsive, incredibly well connected, and uber good at what she does; I can’t recommend Sarah highly enough.”

Lou Jordano – CMO, Everseen

“Working with Sarah has been an absolute pleasure. She really took the time to understand our business and the type of candidate we were looking for. We received high quality candidates very quickly and Sarah was fantastic at helping us with interviews and follows up. I would recommend Sarah to anyone!”

Mark Fasken – Co-Founder & COO, Irwin

“We had a really positive experience partnering with Sarah on our Head of Marketing search. I found her to be thoughtful, collaborative/adaptive to how I wanted to assess candidates for fit and I appreciated how she stayed engaged with candidates throughout to help move the process forward.”
