Hiring Manager – Restaurant Chain

It really was a pleasure to work with Josh, Ashley & team on our Controller search.  I’m not sure how much you’re privy to – but we were really in a bind with another search firm, and struggling to find the right candidates after nearly two months.

Josh had essentially “cold called” our CFO a while back, and I keep those contacts on the back burner, just in case.  Well, that case had arrived, plus I found it funny that I’ve just moved to the Twin Cities from Chicago, so that connection was unique.  I emailed Josh late on a Thursday afternoon – and by early Friday morning, we were on a Zoom call.  By Tuesday, he had handed the search over to Ashley, and by Wednesday I received the first candidate profile.

It was with the speed and attentiveness to what we were looking for that we quickly connected with our candidate – and were impressed with her experience and thrilled that she was in a position to move as quickly as we were.  Because of that expediency, there was a ton of communication required, and Ashley was up for it all (even through the holiday season) – email, text – she was so responsive.

So to put it succinctly, my first experience with SkyWater may have been on a whim (and out of frustration), but it certainly won’t be my last.  I’m super appreciative of the support throughout the process, and thrilled of the outcome.  Our new hire started this week, and is off to a great start.

Legal Recruitment Manager – Law Firm

I had a great experience with Georgie and would be happy to work with her on future placements. Our new-hire was an excellent find – I know her team is very excited about her joining.

HR Manager – Packaging Firm

Stephen has worked with us for several years and I really appreciate the partnership he has with me in HR along with our hiring managers.

Stephen knows our culture well and knows what our team is looking for in candidates.  Sometimes the candidates ask Stephen if he works for us internally because he knows us so well!  That is a huge plus when we are recruiting for our positions.  I appreciate that he goes out of his way to find the right fit for our business and culture and our hiring managers are tough to please.  Nice to put our trust in a company and a recruiter that we value so much.  I look forward to continuing with Stephen and team.

Sales Manager – Packaging Firm

My interactions with Stephen have been great. He is thorough, well-prepared at all times, and partners well to find the best candidates. He is truly a talent.

President – Cleaning Management Company

We had a great experience working with Scott.  I could tell he did a great deal of research into each candidate and his explanations as to why he chose them were very informative. We are very happy with our decision to hire our top candidate. The process was incredibly smooth, and we really appreciated Paul’s time at the beginning.  He did a great job of explaining our options and getting us set up for success.

We also enjoyed working with Allie, she did a great job finding another candidate for us, and did a wonderful job of explaining her process and giving us background on each candidate.

Director of Finance

Stephanie has been fantastic to work with. A few months ago, we had an opening for the FP&A Manager role and an opening in the Senior Accountant role. Stephanie was able to fill the FP&A Manager role right away with a fantastic hire, and then, despite the market being really difficult to navigate in the accounting space, we feel very good about our new hire joining our team this past Monday. Stephanie has always been very honest about market conditions, her perspective on our roles, the candidates’ fit, etc. I have only positive things to say about my experiences working with her.

President – Insurance Agency

It was a pleasure working with Brian helping us search for the right candidate and succeeding to fulfill the requirements for the position. Brian is very professional and informed. I would recommend Brian and your company in the future if we need to.
