  • I met Jeff when he reached out about a job opportunity four years ago. It turned out to be a great fit because I'm still at the company, which is a testament to how well Jeff understands his client's and candidate's needs. Not only is he a great person, he's an excellent recruiter who cares about the process and end result. If you're looking for a new gig, Jeff is your guy!

  • Emily truly helped me navigate my most recent job search, and understood what I was looking for and appreciated what was I was going through in the current job market. She helped me in securing an offer, while still allowing and understanding the need for me to see through outstanding opportunities I also was in discussion at that time. At the end of the day, she helped ground me in confirming this was the right next step and I've had a great experience in my current role and I'm glad she was able to help me secure this job.

  • In a time where jobs are scarce, Emily not only found a job for me. She found a dream job, which she worked tirelessly to not only ensure that the job was the right fit, but also that the team was the right fit. I would recommend her to anyone looking for work. She is extremely professional, detail oriented, and she will help you out through the whole process. I was very pleased with her work, specially how often she would connect with me with updates.

  • Jeff played an instrumental role in helping me find the next career path. His mentality is not job placement but helping individuals find a more challenging place for growth. This single aspect combined with his terrific personal, communication and negotiation skills make him one of the best in the industry. I will absolutely reach out to him with any future searches.

  • Jeff’s knowledge and ability to seamlessly direct the intricate cycle of matching candidates with the right opportunity is truly unique. During my experience working with Jeff, it was evident to me that not only did he have my needs & interests in mind, but also those of the companies he serves. That particular skill set in and of itself, is why it’s easy for me to recommend Jeff to all Sr. Level Sellers who are serious about finding the right fit in their next chapter.

    Carter O.

  • Working with Jeff and the Elevate team was such a wonderful experience! Jeff was diligent and timely with all communication and he always made himself available for any questions I had. While I may have been hesitant to work with a recruiter prior to chatting with Jeff, I'm so glad I did. He introduced me to roles and companies that I most definitely wouldn't have found on my own, including the new role I most recently accepted. I am so grateful for his expertise, guidance and the speed at which he brought things together!

    Kelly G.

  • I’ve had the pleasure of working with Jeff both in the context of receiving candidates from him for a position at my then current company and also as a job candidate myself. During both occasions, I was always very pleased with Jeff’s attention to detail, availability, and swiftness. He was able to hone in on my needs and distill the most important information, then act quickly and efficiently to provide me with excellent options. I always felt I was in good hands while working with Jeff and anyone who has the opportunity to utilize his skillset would be setting themselves up for success.

    Kat D.

  • Jeff is a great guy that helped me land a job during a pandemic. I’m very thankful that he helped connect me with my employer because I never would have known the role was available otherwise.

    Jordan T.

  • Working with Jeff and the Elevate team was such a pleasure. Navigating a career change is never easy, but they made the process smooth and stress-free; Jeff was always available, communicative, and helpful. He eased concerns in real time by sharing his POV, facilitating conversations with key stakeholders at my new company, and was truly invested as a genuine advocate for me during the hiring process. He had a strong understanding of my skills and accomplishments, and by staying in close contact and never dropping the ball, was crucial in helping me make a move that I'm especially excited about. I can't recommend Jeff/Elevate highly enough.
