About us

We exist to bridge the gap between exceptional talent and visionary companies. Through our comprehensive range of services—ranging from resume review sessions and contingent direct placement recruiting to event recruiting and consulting services—we aim to empower job seekers and employers alike. Our mission is twofold: to help candidates tell their best stories through their resumes and to ensure companies find not just employees, but future leaders and innovators who align with their core values and long-term objectives.

What we offer

Schedule a 1:1 consultation with yourself and Ryan to review your resume and identify areas for improvement. There are two sessions included, the first is 60 minutes to go through your resume. The second is a 30 minute follow up session to go over changes you've made. Tell the best story you can with your resume! We also offer mock interviews for you to practice your interview skills and get specific feedback following the interview.

Event Recruiting
