So very pleased to provide this feedback, as Annie has been a great recruiter to work with, as she listens to what I wanted, and gave fantastic advice. Within a day of our first meeting, she put me forward for an interview. Throughout the whole process she supported and checked in with me so I was updated. All of this is due to her professional and first class service, which I can happily recommend to others for future engagements. Thanks Annie for your support and help.

I have been so appreciative of Sam's unique willingness to listen to what I'm looking for and try to find those jobs, rather than sending over whatever comes down the line.

Ben made the job hunting process so easy. While I was busy getting settled in a new city, he took care of customizing my resume and submitting my application for multiple positions. Every opportunity he presented to me was a reasonably good fit for my skills, experience, and values. He provided valuable insight into the interview process at each company as well as the overall job market for software developers in my city.

Courtney has been amazing from the start. The first thing I noticed was how friendly and personable she was. She was very easy to work with and very accessible. She was able to match me with some perfect opportunities based on my skill set and what I was looking for which led to two offer letters and a new job! I could not be more happy with the service Courtney provided and when I get to know more people in Oregon I will most certainly be recommending her.

He asked great questions about my experience and what I was looking for. He was personable and we had a couple fun conversations. :) He seemed to understand what matters to coders. He connected me with the job I ended up getting, and also connected me with a second job which I wouldn't normally have felt qualified to apply for, but which I got a ways through the interview process with, which helped me gain confidence. And he was able to tell me what to expect on the interviews and what to be prepared for, which helped me ace them! :)

Sam was by far the most helpful Recruiter I've ever had the pleasure of working with. Not only was he kind, courteous, and easy to converse with, but he was the only Recruiter who has ever provided me with resources to help prepare for my interview. His communication skills are stellar and was great in providing feedback and status updates along the way, which is truly a rare find in the Recruitment world.

Courtney has done an incredible job providing excellent communication, detailed information and support. Her ability to accurately explain what the employer is seeking in a candidate, evaluating my skills and experience to see how they fit in a role, interview preparation was outstanding pinpointing important questions/details that the employer would ask. Overall a great experience, very professional, and definitely would refer her to colleagues or anyone that is looking to find new career opportunities. Great job Courtney!

I have had phone screens with over a dozen talent acquisition organizations. Of all the people I've spoken, with Annie's approach was the most thorough. She asked questions that made it easy to explain my background and give her the best information to match me with potential roles. I was truly impressed with Annie's process. She really took the time to consider me as an individual not just another resume.

Annie is great about updating a potential candidate every step of the way. She moves the open position from intake information to an interview with a potential employer very expeditiously; even with busy employer schedules. I'm waiting to touch base with her in the new year for any client feedback and possible other positions. Annie is very upbeat and helpful and the company has some great resources I found to be a great refresher to job searching and interviewing.

When I first met Sam I wasn't planning on starting to look at a starting a new position until several months later, no matter, he took note of what I was interested in at that time and we scheduled a follow up for some months later. After we met up and from then on Sam provided me with only interesting and relevant opportunities. It was ease itself interacting with Sam and I never felt like I was wasting my time during these interactions (as I often do with recruiters). When I begin my next job search here in the Portland area Sam White will be the first resource I look to.

I recommend Annie very highly as one of the top-3 recruiters I have met in my job search quest. She truly lives her stated Core Values: *Collaborative *Accountable *Responsive *Ethical *Enthusiastic *Respectful *Supportive She has been very supportive of my efforts to land this position by her responsiveness to my emails, coaching me on interview techniques, and working with me for clarification/matching of my past positions which match what the Client was looking for, and providing sound advice on phone interview tips. I could also detect that she was working positively with her client to help 'sell' me to their wants and needs to fulfill their requirements as best as possible. In the end, the client went with another candidate, but that is their choice, and I think that Annie did her best for me. I look forward to working with her in the future if Tech Talent Link has another opening that I might qualify for consideration to fulfill. Thanks again Annie, You are a great recruiter! -- Keith

Courtney was an absolute pleasure. With most recruiters I get the feeling that I am just a number and a means to an end. I usually never hear from them again. Not with Courtney. I can tell she will work hard for you and genuinely wants to help. She asks all the right questions and really wants to get a full idea of who you are as a candidate and what you are looking for. She isn't going to shove jobs down your throat that she knows you won't want. I gathered that from a single conversation with her. One of the good ones.

I would recommend Ben to anybody considering a new job.

Ben is knowledgeable and focused on making the experience great for candidates. He's got tons of experience and is very responsive for time-sensitive stuff. I highly recommend working with Ben, when you're open to new opportunities!

He then kept me updated on feedback from the employer that allowed me to know why they had gone silent on one occasion. Although I did not need the service, he was also prepared to help negotiate on my behalf. This was a very professional and polished experience.
