I had the pleasure of working with Nick, Kayla, and my main contact Mark Wintermute. What I really liked about Jobspring was that they were very personable, friendly, and accommodating. I first had a phone call with Nick to get an overall understanding of what I was looking for. Then, I went to their offices in Downtown San Jose and met with members of their team. Each person came prepared with a few opportunities that matched my interests. In the weeks after, Mark and Kayla introduced me to various companies, and after each call or interview they would contact me by phone to ask me how I felt. If I did not feel like the opportunity fit me, they did not pressure me to continue down the interview process. They were also helpful in giving me tips on how much salary I could be looking forwards to, what my experience is worth, and if my experience was enough to apply for various senior positions. In the end, I went through the entire process with one of the companies that I liked and had a good fit with and received an offer from them. Although in the end I did not go with the offer that Jobspring helped me get, I appreciate the opportunity and would recommend my friends to use them if they want to look for other jobs. Mark, Kayla, and Nick were definitely the most friendly and personable recruiters that I spoke with, and I had contacts with a couple of other recruiting companies as well. They weren't pushing their own agendas on me, and listened to me. read more

I recently used Jobspring for the first time. I worked with Arika Cherry-Jackson and Mark Wintermute. I was first contacted by Arika who told me about an opportunity that she thought was a good fit based on my resume. The interview process was exactly as described. Arika answered all my questions. When she didn't know an answer, she was quite clear about this and referred me to Mark. Mark is a manager and he has been fantastic. He has been available as needed and has made sure to give me regular updates on the current status of the opportunity I applied for. We've talked after each part of the interview and Mark offered' his candid assessment based on my description. It is very nice when an opportunity matches the description provided on first contact and when the process goes exactly as described! In the end, an offer was made to me. I am looking forward to starting my new opportunity and offer a sincere thanks to both Arika and Mark for their help in making this happen. read more

I worked with Andrew Mi and Mark Wintermute for just under a month; the overall experience was excellent and I was given the opportunity to interview with several great companies. I especially appreciated the beginning of the process of meeting with Andrew and Mark in person, to get a better understanding of where I was in my career and what I was looking for next. They were of great help throughout, between advising me in what to look for and providing fast interview scheduling and information about my interviewers and the company for me to prepare. In just these four weeks they were able to find me a new role that went beyond my expectations. I'm really thankful for everything that's been accomplished with Jobspring, and would definitely work with them again should the need arise. read more

I was very fortunate to work with Caitlyn Hardy of Jobspring on my recent job search. She was incredibly responsive and thorough in getting to know me and what I needed in my next position. Very quickly, she found me an excellent opportunity and I got an onsite interview. Eventually I ended up in a different position, but she had other great positions as well, in case things didn't work out. Caitlyn and Jobspring were the best among recruiters I've talked with lately. I would gladly work with them again. John Hansen, Sr. Mobile Developer read more

As we know, hiring in the Bay Area is very hard - especially for startups who have limited budget. However, Kayla, Mark, and the team at Jobspring Partners make this impossible task so easy for the hiring managers. I vividly remembered that after discussing my hiring requirements with Kayla for the FIRST time, she found qualifying candidates AND scheduled multiple interviews all within ONE week. The best part is that she managed to align all the interviews in the same afternoon which makes it every easy for me. Through Jobspring, I hired two excellent software engineers within a short period of time. These are also some of the best engineers in the company right now. read more

Working with Jobspring Partners was extremely helpful in my career search. Within two days of being contacted by their San Jose office, I was having a number of face-to-face interviews for openings I would have never discovered on my own. By the end of that same week, I had received a new offer from a great start-up. I have Viet and Erin to thank for their dedication and negotiating on my behalf. Viet understood exactly what I was looking for and was able to match my needs with the needs of the companies. He was very encouraging throughout the whole process, and his dedication really made me feel that I wasn't on my own. Viet gave me the gentle shove I needed to keep searching until I found the right opportunity for me. Erin is a great person to have negotiating for you. He has that mix of professionalism and easy-going attitude, for me signs of a guy that knows his craft. What he said was often so cleverly engineered, I couldn't help but feel he was pulling someone's strings. He knew what to say to keep me encouraged and positive, as well as what to say to potential employers to get me the best offer. With Erin's way with words along with his style, I couldn't help but imagine him having a history as the lead vocalist to an indie rock band. Though I'm very glad he is working at Jobspring Partners now... Overall, great experience and would recommend for anyone who is serious about finding the right job in their technical field. read more

Respect is what separates this office from all the other Employment agencies. Daniel Urbaniak and Danny Cavero could teach seminars on how to handle clients. Unlike other agencies They dont send you job listing that are way outside your experience. They don't send you blind into interviews. They dont spam you daily with random listing. They dont act like you are working for them, They dont act like your just 1 in 10,000 even if you are. They don't BS you. What they do is make the effort to understand you, they make you feel like they are there working for you. They clearly are trying to find you a good fit, so they only send focused jobs. After a lack luster Experience at General Assembly and a number of Blase´ Talent Agencies, I was beginning to think I really did waste a ton of money and time transitioning into Tech. But Once I started working with Danny Cavero everything starting looking up. He set me up with a position that was ideal for my experience. He helped me to understand what they are looking for and how I would fit in the roll, rather then just emailing me some basic info. Then Danny followed up and regularly checked in with me making me feel like he wanted to know me personally, I know it's a basic sales tactic, but Danny projects a genuine interest. read more

It's been great working with Jobspring, especially with Scott Purcell. He's the man! Without his help, it would have been very difficult for me to find jobs that I like. Amongst other recruiters, he stands out. He makes me very comfortable and confident while going through stressful process of job searching. Once I had a bad recruiter (from other company), who was kind of torturing me to go to an interview that I didn't like to go. There's no such stress in Jobspring. Scott proactively gives me updates, and always makes sure I get what I need. I would definitely recommend Scott to my friends or anyone who's searching for a job. read more

We were looking for an engineer. Not just any engineer, but that special one, the one who could not only do the work, but deal with the ins and outs of a small startup environment, and be a great fit in terms of personality. We tried all the usual channels. Craigslist, various startup job sites, personal connections, stalking people on LinkedIn.. but no luck. Then we started working with Erin Wilson and JobSpring. I had met Erin a few months earlier when I had seen a particularly well written ad on Craigslist, and responded to the ad just to compliment the author on a great ad. That author was (you guessed it) Erin Wilson with Jobspring. Impressively, Erin spent an hour on the phone with me, getting to know me and my company's needs, even though we were not yet looking for people at that time. So, a few months later when we were hitting a dead end in our search, eventually I got approval to use a recruiter, and Erin was the first person I called. Erin made the process easy - he pre-screened candidates, and lined up the ones that best fit, all within our budget. All of the candidates we talked to were good personality fits. So many recruiters end up wasting so much time presenting candidates who don't fit, who don't have the skills, who are too expensive. In my experience with Erin and JobSpring, it was just the opposite. Hiring has never been so easy - and we had our special engineer on board within a week. Truly amazing results! read more

The experience of working with Viet and his team is fantastic! Viet helped me find my first ever job in a startup that I really love working for. He is very good at finding right companies for candidates. The two companies Viet recommended for me exactly matched my skill sets and interests. He is more like a friend than an agency recruiter during the whole job seeking process. The suggestions he provided was very helpful not only for job interviews but also for finding my career directions. The other members in his team were also very helpful. They promptly provided feedbacks from interviews, answered my questions carefully and with total honesty. Communicating with them always made me feel comfortable and reliable. Maggie, Rachel, Ben and others I haven't met in person, YOU GUYS ROCK! I really appreciate what Viet and his team have done for me and would recommend JobSpring to anyone who wants to find engineering jobs in Silicon Valley. read more

I'm on my H1B and they were able to find me a job within a month. I worked with Christina, she was pretty fast in scheduling an interview and land in a job within a month time. She even did my BG check which fasten the hiring process. read more

Jobspring San Jose has a exceptionally professional and effective way for job hunters finding the perfect matches. My husband worked with Mark Wintermute and Will Colligan and within only three weeks they helped him land on an excellent job at a fast growing startup with bright outlook. The way Jobspring works with people is organic: they don't mechanically fill people to some random positions but rather listen carefully to what job hunters need and develop a systematic strategy accordingly. I recommend Jobspring to everyone especially in the tech world who wants to elevate his or her career to a new stage. read more

I have help from JobSpring in my recent job search and it has been a wonderful experience, although I finally landed a job not through them. My positive about them are in these areas: - their contacts: the opportunities that they came up with are impressive. It shows that they know the industry. - they provided wealth of information of the companies I interviewed with, the interview styles, and some background info of the interviewers. - I liked the Jobspring team. They are very nice, helpful, and I can feel that they are on my side. read more

Working with Jobspring, especially with Khaaliq is a very pleasant experience! I spent lots of time searching a company that matches my experience and skill sets before talking with Khaaliq. Khaaliq has a very good understanding of candidate's background and company's needs, and did very well in matching them. I was also impressed by the professionalism of JobSpring. They invite candidate to JobSpring for an initial interview and go through the resume in details to have a better understanding what the candidate is looking for. Throughout the interview process, Khaaliq followed up with employers promptly, and did great job as a coordinator! I would highly recommend Khaaliq and JodSpring if you are looking for a software engineer position. read more

I have worked with Viet as a job seeker and as a hiring manager, and in both respects, Viet has comported himself with a high degree of professionalism and integrity. He understands and can converse in "geek-speak," but more importantly, has the uncanny ability of finding great matches between candidates and employers very quickly. Unlike other recruiters who inundate hiring managers with resumes; essentially throwing stuff at the wall to see what sticks, Viet's approach - and the approach JobSpring takes in general - is a much more measured approach such that candidates and employers are highly pre-qualified. What does this mean? If I give a requisition to Viet or even if I'm searching, I won't be wasting time in either search. As a job searcher, Viet and team hooked me up with a company within a day after initial contact, and I had an offer in hand two days later. As a hiring manager looking for a user experience architect, that search and resulting offer took less than a week. I highly recommend working with Viet and JobSpring! read more

I had nothing short of an optimal experience working with Jobspring's Silicon Valley branch. Daniel Urbaniak and Rachel Greenhill made my latest job search quick and painless and matched me up with an employer that met and exceeded my expectations. Their coaching throughout my interview process was crucial; there were a few parts I was inexperienced with, and they made themselves available throughout the day as I navigated through those hurdles. Jobspring Silicon Valley are rockstars in my book and I wouldn't hesitate to work with them again. Thanks guys! read more

Job spring is the headhunters you deserve not the headhunters you need! Jason, William, Kevin, and the mobile/firmware team are fantastic! They do an amazing job determining the types of job openings you'll enjoy interviewing for. As a firmware engineer it was music to my ears to know I wasn't going to be asked to do work I had the skills for but didn't want a career in. I've worked with their sister company Work Bridge and it just wasn't the same. Job Spring is definitely the better option in SJ! read more

Tyler R found me on LinkedIn. First I thought he is the same as the rest recruiters who contacted me through LinkedIn. But I was wrong. Jobspring is special. First Tyler, actually the whole team, met me in person. Go over my experiences, strength, my needs, my career goal in details. They really listened, since the companies they recommended later are all the companies I like - close to home, stable and well known. They have a good relationship with the hire managers. They understood what company needs. One position I like however I think I might not qualify based on the job description and hesitate to apply. Scott called the hire manager and ease my hesitation. After phone screen, on-site, I got the offer from that company. It is a super good offer. Without Scott, Tyler and Jobspring partners, I will definitely pass that company. Thank you Scott, Thank you Tyler and whole team. Besides they found me next new position in less than 3 weeks, they are so fun to work with. Every morning, everyone in the team updated me with the progress of each job application. Actually, I got response from 7 different companies in one week. After two weeks, 2 of them in on-site stage and 3 of them scheduled phone screen (cancelled after I accepted offer) and 2 failed phone screen. I definitely recommended Jobspring. 5 star service. read more

I had worked with Danny and Rachel here, they are great on finding opportunities and setting up interviews. I was holding my H1B that time, and they were able to help me find the next job within a month. And also, they are great people to talk with, always have some good advice for your career and interviews. read more

This review is for Viet and his team at Jobspring Partners. I can heartily recommend Viet, who was the matchmaker between my current company, Cloudera and I. Jobspring's process, as adopted by the team lead by Viet, was very impressive, involving some fast initial sorting of potential job candidates, which I am sure my employer appreciated, followed my a series of more in-depth interviews. It is by far the best structured interviewing process I've experienced, and through this his team was brilliant. Viet and Rachel McCafferty are both dynamos, highly knowledgeable, always available and always enthusiastic. I highly recommend Viet and his team, as well as Jobspring to other candidates as well as employers! read more

Huge thanks to Will for finding the perfect job for me here in Silicon Valley! Will had previously lined up two phone interviews for me, and still kept me in mind even after I wasn't the right fit for those positions. During the process of applying to my new job, it was clear that he had done his homework about the company, and he was always happy to answer questions before, during, and after the interview. Thanks also to Jason for his honest feedback after my first two interviews. Highly recommend these guys! read more

Jobspring Partners have been great to work with; they got me (on-site) interviews at two fast-growing, innovative startups. In the end I accepted another offer and withdrew my applications, after which they were still supportive and offered to help evaluate the terms of the other contract! I'd definitely recommend working with them read more

I had a really good experience with Jobspring Partners. They were very helpful and understood my personal situation, so they acted accordingly and focused on those opportunities where together considered successful for me. I really recommend them if you are looking a job opportunity in the Bay Area. read more

Extremely professional. Forget about the normal recruiting model of keyword searches - Motion takes the time to get to know you and find a role that is a good match for you. Both Scott and Breann were very responsive and helpful throughout my job search. Highly recommended. read more

Applied to three positions in one company (Sequentially, one after another until they found a fit), got the job. Thanks Mark! Great coordination and feedbacks that improved the process. read more

Alex and Riley really helped me out all throughout the process. It was nice working with them.

I worked mostly with Danny and he was awesome. What I liked most is that he was not interested in just getting me a job and spamming me. I was happy to pick up the phone every time he called. If I didn't like a particular company he would ask why and give me better companies after that. He's professional, but friendly and driven. He walks that line well. He's been consistently upbeat every time I've talked to him, passionate, and driven. He really likes his job. It's obvious. He also found me a great job where I would be able to do some great work. The only downside is that he's non-technical, but honestly if he was then he'd probably have a job doing that. He's definitely a people person and I think JobSpring would miss him if ended up with a career behind a keyboard. He's good at what he does, and he knows more about the technology than I expected. Definitely good guy to work with. read more

Alexandra from Jobspring first reached out to me when I was looking for my next opportunity. I was very skeptical about technical recruiters, since I kept getting spammy emails from several other ones, but she completely turned that around. As we progressed through the process of finding relevant opportunities, Alex really seemed to go above and beyond to help me. She would call me once before every interview, just to check in, wish me luck, see if I needed anything. Also after the interview, she would always follow up and ask how it went. But I believe the best thing about Alex that I can say I experienced is that she was never like a recruiter to me, she was almost like a friend. This is especially because post the interviews and the offer, we had to push for the paperwork to be completed asap. And seeing her commitment to that was really amazing. I could see that she was doing the best she could, including checking in everyday with the company HR, giving me updates every time something new came up and really pushing for me. It really makes you feel safe and assured that someone is constantly rooting for you and I'm really grateful to her for that. I've spoken to a few more folks at Jobspring and they seemed great too, but with Alex, I think especially with the process we've been through and all the effort that she's put in, including responses as quick as minutes, I'm very thankful and I would really recommend her if you're looking for someone who's as passionate as you are about finding your next job. read more

I met Viet through a job position from SolutionSet which is where I am currently working at. Viet helped me connect with them and was efficiently responsive at that moment, replied and got back to me with good news during weekends! I definitely recommend Viet! read more

What a waste of time. Three or four times different recruiters walked me through a nearly word-for-word identical explanation of how they are not like those "other" recruiting agencies. Its true, they aren't your average recruiting agency. They are far below average! Before I knew better, I agreed to "come in and shake their hand". Between all of their "we're different" sales pitches they slipped in a few self-serving suggestions. They pressured me not to talk with other recruiting agencies. They told me to remove my resume from online job boards. They talked shit about big name companies for being too slow as an explanation for why those companies choose not to work with Jobspring. In total they spent about 3 hours passing me between different recruiters. The process was slow and repetitive, but it seemed like it all might be worthwhile. They did have two companies that were possible fits. They told me not to apply to those companies directly because Jobspring could get me on the short list of candidates. I was in a hurry to get the interview process going, and they assured me they would contact those companies and get in touch with me within 8 hours. Its been weeks, and Jobspring never emailed me back. I am happy to report that my job search was very successful; I received 4 full time offers. I put my resume up on 7 job sites, applied directly to 35 companies and was contacted by a dozen or so agencies. Out of all of them Jobspring both demanded the most time from me, and put in the least effort themselves. read more

I know this place is very highly reviewed. That's the reason why I went to them. I had just moved to the Bay Area and was in search of an IT project management/business analysis position. Although they were nice and professional they simply did not have anything that fit my needs. They claimed they were primarily recruiting for engineers but one of their major categories of jobs on their website is project management. So from my experience, unless you're a total programming geek you won't find anything here. read more

it's a pleasure working with these people. Very prompt and really follow through on their promises. The main difference I feel from other recruiters is the fact that they take the time to get to know you, PERSONALLY and match your needs with what they have. They don't boast promises they can't keep, which I highly respect. If you want great results without having your resume blasted to every other company, go to them, they deliver. PS: Thanks for the new job Erin, it's perfect! read more

They are the most unprofessional bunch of people who are running a company to place professionals. WOW!! I would give a minus star if it was possible. I approached them for a job placement when I was out of work and my status was at stake. They called me their their office immediately as though they had to talk to me in person so they can get a better understanding of me an get me a job in a week. They made me talk to two more guys who were just talking to me in animated expressions like they understand my situation. Then after that it was only me calling them a million times to check where they are with my case. They never got back to me. And they never had the courtesy to tell me they were S**T. I had to finally find my own job! I wasted $100 on cab that day to go meet them. Extremely disappointed. read more

I've worked with a lot of recruiters in the past, and I speak with confidence when I say that Erin is simply as good as it gets. Knowledgeable, professional, thoughtful, charismatic.. In a world of snakes this guy stands out like an incredible sore thumb. He really cares about connecting the right people with the right businesses and he has a great reputation in the industry because of the care he takes in his work. If only all recruiters were as talented and as selfless as Erin! Note: I ended up taking a job that a friend of mine set me up with, but Erin had set me up on quite a few interviews in a short period of time. He was very cool about the whole thing, and didn't do the whole recruiter guilt thing when you don't take one of the spots they are trying to fill. Classy! read more

Ok, I see good and bad reviews here. I suspect that this depends on the group that you're working with. I worked with Alex, Jeff, Sanuja and Sam (who's names I see positively here several times). They are *very* efficient, thorough and at the same time very personable. Several key differentiators: they took the time to meet with me in person, they gave me a direct contact number and they responded *right away*. They followed up and kept me on-task. It doesn't seem as they kept anything hidden; very straightforward. Anyway, my experience was very positive. Had an offer in 2 weeks. read more

1) Long, windy, phone conversations without divulging any sensible info. 2) THEY WANT TO MEET IN PERSON !! Who does that? AND THEY WANT TO DO THIS EVERY YEAR .. I WENT THERE LAST YEAR NOW WHY AGAIN? Who has time for such things? 3) They ask salary in detail down to the penny, then they ask all benefits and then they ask every aspect of why you want to leave current employer. 'General points' should suffice. DONT WASTE MY TIME. Agreed, 'this helps them funnel right opportunities', but how is it that all other more successful recruiter are able to do all that without being a stalker? Train your callers to respect other people's time. They picked up phone once by mistake and they won't do it again! We need to save our 48 minutes of time wasted with you next time talking trash. read more

I came in to their offices with a few offers, but Melissa Tobia with JobSpring got me the job with near perfect fit and an awesome salary for my experience. She was also good enough to reach out and grab feedback for me on failed interviews. Overall, would definitely recommend Jobsring and Melissa to anyone looking for developer positions! read more

Excellent experience. This guys are very professional and helped me find my new job in less than 4 weeks. Daniel Cavero guided me and worked with me day by day through out the whole process. If in the future I need to find a new job I will definitely call them back. read more

Viet helped me get a Senior Developer position at Krome Photos. He was extremely helpful and worked really hard to find a company that he felt would be a good fit for me. He told me about different opportunities and made suggestions about the type of cultures and work environment he felt would be best for me. I still consult him regarding job opportunities that come to me from other sources and will happily work with him in the future as I look for new positions read more

I would recommend jobspring to anyone in tech looking for a job right now. They weren't a typical recruit firm that sent me a job description and pressured me to be interested. Instead, we got together and spoke about what I wanted to do. I only worked with them for less than two weeks and they got me interviews with two companies. In the end, I accepted an offer from a company I did not find through them. Erin was very understanding and a good coach through it all, including the disappointing ending for them. The next time I'm looking for a job, he's the first person I'm calling read more
