Director of Inside Sales – Medical Devices

I’ve consistently been impressed with Emma and the quality of her placements. Time and again, she has delivered exceptional candidates in situations where other recruiters were unable to do so. What sets Emma apart is her ability to truly understand our business and our culture. At our company, we prioritize finding the right fit over simply filling a role quickly, and Emma fully embraces and supports that approach.

With our most recent candidate, she partnered closely with my direct report (who she actually placed about a year ago), and from my perspective the process was seamless.

When it comes to identifying candidates for our organization, Emma is our first call. She is a trusted partner, consistently professional, and someone I rely on with full confidence. My advice, make sure you don’t lose her!

Hiring Manager – Ad Agency

Katy Thieman was an amazing partner to me on this search.  It was a long process; the first candidate did not accept our offer, but Katy never wavered in her pursuit to find us the right fit.  In the end, the candidate we hired was well worth the wait and a more qualified candidate overall.  I can’t say enough great things about working with Katy and Skywater.

Vice President – Financial Advisers

This is 3rd placement using Lindsay and SkyWater, and we have nothing but great things to say about the process, candidate pool, and experience. I am very happy with Lindsay’s ability to understand our business and needs, quickly locate a qualified candidate pool, and provide relevant insight to help us make a decision. Lindsay is very responsive and great to work with. Overall, I am very happy with Lindsay and SkyWater, and will certainly reach out to Lindsay the next time I need a recruiter.

Manager of Legal Recruiting – Lawfirm

Rylie was great. Our work together here began with a long and candid phone conversation, and we worked together to close the deal. She’s a solid recruiter, and I’d be happy to work with her again. I can tell she has good candidate control and has earned our top candidates’ trust. This was a good experience on my end.

I worked on the agency side for 6 years and, based on that, I usually have harsh feedback for most recruiters. However, Rylie gets an A from me. I hope to work with her, and by extension, your agency, more in the future. Thanks again.

Vice President, Human Resources – Credit Union

Alex, Andrea, and the entire SkyWater team have been exceptional. The process was incredibly smooth, efficient, and thorough from start to finish.

I especially appreciated how intentional Alex was in taking the time to truly understand our culture, our needs, and the journey we’re on. His honesty and transparency stood out, and his follow‑up was consistently spot‑on. His professionalism was top‑notch throughout the entire engagement.

I’ve already recommended SkyWater to several peers at other organizations, and internally we’re exploring the possibility of a more formal partnership with your team as we prepare for future succession planning and eventual transitions at the executive level.

Thank you again for the outstanding support. We truly value the relationship.

Recruitment Manager – Department Store

I have truly enjoyed working with Alex and value his continued partnership. He’s consistently prompt in his responses, provides thorough and detailed candidate information, and has a strong understanding of our company’s environment, which he accurately conveys to candidates. I look forward to working with him on our next position.

Founder – Marketing Agency

Katy was beyond amazing. She was thoughtful, proactive, and incredibly insightful throughout the journey. We enjoyed the process, and believe we found the right candidate with ease, all thanks to Katy.

HR Director – Insurance Broker

Brian was great to work with.  I have no issues at all.  He was very responsive and professional and provided assistance when I asked.

Director of Human Resources – Manufacturing

Corey was great to work with; he had a very difficult candidate profile to search for, and he presented us with many candidates, which we appreciated.  He was always very communicative and responded to things promptly.
