About Ben
Ben's Bio

17+ years of experience in technical recruiting & account management in the Portland area for more than 300+ companies.

I find that if I can understand the core values of a company and its leaders and align those with the candidate’s values, the rest tends to work itself out.

Married with three kids (15, 8, 4), living in Lake Oswego. Someday, I plan to coach youth sports (soccer, basketball, golf).

Living my best life and enjoying the process!

Recruiting Since
2005

Why I love to recruit
Building real relationships and helping people make decisions with their career - that's a primary motivation. I'm a coach, consultant, and advocate for my candidates and clients. I'm motivated to help people create the reality they want. And, I seem to be more driven to succeed with people doubt me. My priority when talking with hiring managers is to understand the reality of the job responsibilities, the problem to be solved, ideal requirements, and then create clear expectations.

When I'm not working I like to
Paddle boarding, kayaking, golfing (~15 handicap), pickle ball, watching sports (college hoops, NFL, NBA, college football), PGA when Tiger is playing. Coffee 2x per day, whiskey or any wheat beer. Mindfulness breathing.

About Ben Newbill:

Ben was honest and gave great advice. It's tough in tech right now, and he didn't sugar coat it or string me along. Instead, he gave me great tips before and after the first client contact.
