About Blake
Blake's Bio

I’m a Technical Recruiter with IDR in Denver, Colorado, and I started my recruiting journey in January 2025 right after graduating from Texas Tech University. With a background and prior knowledge in IT, I bring a unique perspective to the recruiting process — allowing me to genuinely connect with candidates and better understand the roles I’m hiring for. I specialize in IT recruiting and take pride in building strong relationships with both clients and candidates by being transparent, responsive, and knowledgeable. I’m passionate about helping others grow in their careers and love being part of the process that makes it happen.

Why I love to recruit
I love connecting people with opportunities that can change their lives. It’s rewarding to build relationships, understand what someone’s really looking for, and help them take the next step in their career.

When I'm not working I like to
Get outside and hit the trails — mountain biking is one of my favorite ways to reset. I’ve also been playing basketball since I could walk (or so I’m told), and I love jamming on guitar, especially indie and classic rock. Whether it’s being active or creative, I’m all about staying balanced and having fun outside of work.

About Blake Starr:

A great advocate to align opportunities, your experience, and goals

Blake is a natural and he’s a joy to work with. It took us a few days to connect, and I was pleasantly surprised that he was not rushed. He did his research and made our time count. What impressed me most was how attentive he was in evaluating my comprehensive work history. It demonstrated a talent for gleaning value from a bulleted resume and connecting it to the person in front of him. By the end of our first meeting, I felt he understood what I bring to the table because he got to know me as a person and my goals. That's important when investing time with people who can advocate for other opportunities on my behalf. I appreciate Blake's approach, his management style, and I'm grateful for the schedule accommodations and low-pressure approach. I’m happy he reached out, and I would highly recommend him as an advocate.
