Greg partnered successfully with me for over 6 years as an external recruiter as I was building and staffing a new software engineering office in Seattle for HBO. What I really appreciated is that he aggressively invested in deeply understanding our needs and goals and presented the opportunities at our company well and without undue hyperbole, in contrast to other agencies. On the other side of the relationship, Greg took the time to relate to and build a relationship with the candidates in his pool. As a result, while Greg may have presented fewer overall candidates, they were generally of a higher caliber and a better fit for our company than candidates from other agencies. Greg does not simply enter keywords into a candidate database and handoff the resulting resumes. I can also attest to the fact that many of the hires through Greg had strong trajectories: they made significant contributions and had lasting tenures. I highly recommend Greg and have recommended him to others as my “gold standard” for an external agency. Moreover, I have recommended him to others as my personal choice if I ever wanted to put myself back into the job market.
