Senior Support Analyst
Austin, TX

"I am writing on behalf of Jordan Barlow regarding the position as a Recruiter. I have gotten to know Jordan quite well and can thoroughly vouch for her character and abilities. Jordan is a pleasure to work with because her pleasant and positive attitude can make nearly any work seem fun and interesting. She's the type of person that will lift your spirits when you are feeling low or feel you are inadequate in your job, rather than me getting upset, Jordan will point out the positives until I began to enjoy myself. Jordan’s incredible adaptability with potential clients has let her excel with great abilities. Her uncanny knack to know what the client wants before they tell her makes clients feel comfortable with her. Her flexibility also allows her to quickly switch tactics if the client changes their mind about something at the last minute.

Jordan fulfilled employment responsibilities with little supervision. The position required interaction with the public, as well as the ability to liaise between different departments. Success was dependant on strong communication and interpersonal skills. I am happy to act as a reference for Jordan and can speak to her customer service skills, work ethic, computer literacy, and professionalism. Along with her abilities, adaptability, and dedication, Jordan will make a great Recruiter for any Company."

"Jordan is an excellent recruiter. She is professional, energetic, experienced, and well-connected. These qualities make her very efficient when it comes to matching the right person to the right job. I didn’t have to worry about Jordan trying to place me in a job that wasn’t right for me just to meet a quota – I can trust her judgment and advice. Even after Jordan helped me find a great job, she continues to check in to make sure everything is going well. Jordan has set a very high standard in her field. I highly recommend working with Jordan to find your dream job or find the very best employees for your company or organization."

"I met Jordan while seeking out my second full-time software development position and quickly established a comfortable rapport during our initial interactions that had me smiling instantly. Her unique flair was immediately apparent through her self-proclaimed “Jordanisms”. This vivacious and cordial personality was a welcomed change to the typical recruitment and hiring process that can easily become lifeless and formulaic.

I was incredibly impressed with Jordan’s intimate knowledge of the current landscape software development industry as she knew the subtle distinctions between different programming languages and technology stacks while discussing my skills and work experience. Additionally, I loved how Jordan had a thorough understanding of the company values and culture, as she quickly identified how HumanGeo could fill some of the desires I was looking for in a new employer and position. This proved that Jordan has keen intuition about whether candidates would be a good fit for an employer.

Throughout the entirety of the hiring process, Jordan provided me with invaluable advice on how to interact with my previous company and become a valuable asset with HumanGeo. I found this especially helpful since it was my first time leaving a full-time position for a new employer. Once I started my new position, I really appreciated how Jordan followed up with me multiple times to check that I was settling into my new role and expressed sincere interest if I was happy and comfortable with my decision to join HumanGeo. I knew that if anything wasn’t going well, I’d have someone to help take action to potentially improve the workplace.


I have the utmost confidence that Jordan can bring value to any company she works for. Jordan’s cordial and vigilant personality has the ability to draw in other talented and driven individuals."

GIS Coordinator - Parsley Energy
Midland and Austin, TX

"Shortly after being honorably discharged from the United States Army I was referred to Jordan as a career coach through mutual acquaintances as someone who understood the world of job hunting. After being far removed from the civilian workforce, I was in need of a professional to help guide me in my transition back into a new career in the civilian workforce. I provided Jordan with my initial resume, which in turn she was more than helpful with in explaining in depth how to make it substantially stronger. With the challenge set, Jordan and I ended up re-writing my entire resume. In fact, prospective employers were complimentary on how well my information was laid out and the flow of my accomplishments.

Once Jordan and I completed my resume, she went on to provide solid interview tips and career coaching around negotiations, of which I had no knowledge. She also provided plenty of encouragement along the way as to how I should approach certain job positions using my military background as an advantage. We probably met a total of five hours in over two-three different sessions, and it was worth every bit of an investment into my career.

With Jordan’s help, I was able to secure a job in the Petroleum Oil and Gas industry within a month of beginning my search. I personally cannot thank Jordan enough for her unique ability to provide impeccable guidance and insight into the big, bad, world we call the job market. If you are serious about your career or possible new career path, then I highly recommend Jordan as a career coach that you’ll be more than confident taking advice from."

Alex Renger

Senior Technologist at HumanGeo
Arlington, VA

"Jordan is truly excellent in her work: discerning and connecting people, offering selfless and timely advice, recognizing angles and alternatives that are not apparent. She embodied HumanGeo, understanding both the technologies and the company culture. It was as though I could interview the company by asking questions of her.

After I was hired, I learned that all she had said was true. My new coworkers were very sharp, motivated, and down-to-earth, like her. I've been here for a year and a half now, and I'm still very thankful for the role Jordan played in getting me connected and hired. She still checks in regularly to see how things are going. I've worked with recruiters in the past, but now I'm spoiled because I know what a "Messenger of Opportunity" could be!"
