Testimonials

“After speaking with Sarah during our initial phone call I felt very enthusiastic about hiring her to recruit our Program & Operations Manager. I needed an expert who could move quickly and Sarah was extremely easy to work with. She was able to quickly find candidates and screened them to find the right one. She also advised me on best practices and facilitated the fine detail inter-workings of making a final decision and signing a candidate. We now have a person that is flourishing in their position!”

Johnny Irwin, City Surf Project, Executive Director

“Sarah is a phenomenal recruiter. I hired her to help me fill a position after I tried and failed, hiring 3 people in a row who were not a good fit for the position for various reasons. She had a great strategy for identifying who the right candidate would be, gave excellent advice on everything from the job description to salary and benefits, and found someone amazing for me. Throughout the entire process, she was organized, met deadlines and was very communicative. The thing that really won Sarah over to me, was the feedback that I got from the candidates: she mirrored our company culture to a tee, so that candidates got a great sense of our culture from the interactions they had with Sarah. And thanks to her understanding of the importance of our culture, we found a candidate who exceeded the requirements of the job and was a good cultural fit. I would hire her again in a heartbeat!”

Eileen Hassi Rinaldi, Ritual Coffee Roasters, Owner

“When I was starting to build a new department at AbstractOps, I needed to make some strategic initial hires. Sarah was so helful and kind throughout the process. She cared deeply about finding the right candidate based on what the company needed, and she always made sure to keep equity, diversity and inclusion top of mind.”
