Testimonials
Byron Reese - Tech entrepreneur
"Jordan is many things: Smart, entrepreneurial, results-driven, focused, a team player, and
just a heck of a nice person. But no matter how long of a list of adjectives I stream
together to describe her, they will never capture what makes her really extraordinary. For
Jordan is far more than merely the sum of her qualities, for they all come together in an
amazing way that makes her a truly remarkable person."
- Byron Reese
Jason Crickmer - VP Services at Thinktiv
"Jordan brings tremendous drive, passion, and experience to recruiting. She has helped my
team with about half a dozen hires in Austin and London – all great hires, and all the
result of Jordan’s sourcing expertise and polished closing skills. However, beyond all of
her energy and acumen, the thing that sets Jordan apart is how much she cares. She cares for
the business, the candidates, and the employees. And this shines through in everything she
does, making her truly a great person to work with, both as a hiring manager and as a
candidate. I highly recommend Jordan to help you hire smart, solid, and engaged
people."
