I had a wonderful experience with Savvy this past spring. I spent a few months sending off applications directly to companies or on LinkedIn, with no response. Once I was connected to Meghan Loase of Savvy, I was presented with top tier open roles, got regular checkins, and received tailored support. Applying to jobs requires its own skillset, and can even get in the way of preparing for the right role. Everyone can use the helping hand of someone as skilled as the Savvy Team, who truly values your talents and sets you up to land that role! read more

I was really fortunate to have crossed paths with Andrea and Savvy Search Solutions in my job search. I had responded to their LinkedIn job posting that sounded like an amazing opportunity for me. After a Zoom meeting with Andrea where we discussed my experience and my goals, she immediately scheduled my interviews, since it was a time sensitive hire. In less than 2 weeks, from meeting with Andrea to interviewing with the Company, I was hired for my current role. It was my first time working with Andrea... and it led to a successful match! Andrea sent congratulatory flowers the week I started my new job and has checked in from time to time even after my placement. I highly recommend Andrea and Savvy Search Solutions for their expertise and personable service. read more

Andrea at Savvy was amazing to work with! She was very responsive and a helpful liaison for the hiring company. I would definitely recommend Savvy. read more

I had been working with Andrea & Savvy for almost a year after being laid off and wanting to get into the executive assistant world. Andrea knew exactly what I was looking for and was always willing to put my resume in front of employers and go to bat for me, just even for an interview. After a few different interviews, she finally found me a home to pursue my new career path. You can fully put your trust into this company that they will do everything in their power to get you a job. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a recruiter in the admin world or even to use them when hiring! read more

I will be forever grateful to Megan for placing me at my current job. I had never worked with a recruiter before so was a bit apprehensive but Megan made the entire process so easy. She was incredible to work with, found me the perfect match for what I was looking for. Megan quickly prepped me on the interview and within a week I received an offer! Since then I have referred many friends to her. My firm continues to work with Savvy and has been very pleased with the relationship. I highly recommend them for your recruiting needs. read more

Incredible recruitment agency! Megan helped me find my dream job and I couldn't be happier! I was placed in the role two years ago and I have no plans on leaving any time soon. Megan fully understood my qualifications and work style to find me the best fit. I highly recommend connecting with Megan if you want an honest, thoughtful and reliable recruiter to find your next dream role. read more

I left Northern CA in 2015, but while I lived there, I worked with Andrea (before she started her own firm). She was awesome and I highly recommend her. She listens to what the candidate is looking for and looks for a solid match. She isn't in it for the commission like several other places/people with whom I worked. She also returns phone calls! read more

This is the best recruitment agency I have ever dealt with by far. Andrea and the team know exactly what they're doing. Very helpful, professional and caring with daily follow up! They found me on LinkedIn, met me in person and went through their clients with me. Honest and transparent, no fake promises! Now I have a solid full time job in less than 3 weeks! I am super excited about Savvy and would highly recommend them to anyone struggling in their professional search. If you need great leads, prompt follow up and around the clock support, don't hesitate to connect with Andrea. She's simply awesome! The right person in the right place. read more

Unfortunately, this place led me to think we were working together and that they would help me get into the administration field. Had a wonderful introduction meeting with one of the owners who was very inspiring. We met once and I was told I was a great candidate, completely eligible for their services and that we would apply for different jobs over the next few weeks. They even went on to explain a possible position that would be a great fit for me. Then I was completely ghosted by the staff there. Sent follow up emails and no response. As we all know, no response is a response but would have appreciated an email stating I was no longer a fit, I was deemed ineligible or whatever happened. Great idea, but the company did not follow through and stopped contacting me which would make me be weary of doing business with them. read more

I first met Andrea & Megan at a former company as they helped us fill many of our admin roles. When I made the choice to leave that company, Andrea was the one who helped me find my next role. She was an absolute pleasure to work with and from that, we were able to build a great relationship. Andrea took time to get to know me on a personal level to get a deeper understanding of who I was, my goals, my past experience, etc. Being very transparent, reliable, and accountable allowed me to trust her a lot more than I already did. She is extremely knowledgeable and very good at what she does. I highly recommend having Andrea by your side when your time comes to find your new role.I definitely will refer her to friends who are looking for a change in their careers. Thank you Andrea and to the team who have played a role in helping me with my job search. I truly appreciate it! read more

Awesome Recruiter!! When I first started my job hunt I went to a very large company for job placement. It was an awful experience but I thought I'd try again with Savvy Search Solutions and I am so glad I did. Andrea was so kind and made me feel very comfortable. Her positivity that I'd find exactly what I wanted was so refreshing. Andrea worked extremely hard at getting me job prospects and after only a month, I got a job! I always felt like she really cared. I am very grateful for her hard work and sincerity. read more

I was referred to Andrea by my work colleague. It was seriously the best decision I've made on choosing a recruiter. I left my employer on October 2016, Andrea has been a rock star in providing possible job reqs and working closely with me to fit my business needs. She communicates well via email or phone. I was able to land a contract role in February 2017 and it was rewarding for me to add a prestigious employer to my resume. Thank you Andrea for everything. I highly recommend her to anyone that's in need of admin work. She's truly the best! read more

Thank you to my cousin who referred Andrea to me, because she's a superb recruiter. The day I met her she had opportunities lined up for me. She's a genuinely sweet and positive person who's hardworking, and will always try her absolute best to find a position that aligns with your goals. I feel comfortable talking to her about my needs, because she truly listens and helps guide you in the right direction. I currently landed a position at Andreessen Horowitz, all thanks to her! If you want a talented recruiter who delivers, Andrea is the right person for you. She's an absolute pleasure to work with. read more

Super great recruitment agency! They are super responsive with emails on letting you know about the companies decision. Really sweet employees and truly care about your career and getting you a perfect job. Best agency I worked with and got a great job out of it! Definitely recommend to anyone needing a recruiter they can rely on. read more

Andrea employs the skill of a paleontologist to find the best environmental match between individuals and organizations. She serves an ecosystem of varying needs and difficult timelines alongside demands from both decision makers and candidates. As a first responder in a trade that requires an exceptional ability to interpret human behavior, Andrea is skilled at looking beneath the surface. She is perceptive, experienced and committed to the process. I highly recommend Andrea in your next search. read more

Saavy is the place to go for Admininstrative roles! I've worked with Andrea for close to a year and couldn't be more pleased. Andrea takes her time to review your background, listen closely to you what you'd like in your future role and only presents opportunities she feels will fit. When you work with Andrea, you feel you not only have an advocate, but also a friend :). I would (and have) go back to Saavy for my search needs in a second! Highly recommended Saavy! read more

Andrea is the reason I am now at my DREAM JOB! She was thorough with her coaching and was communicative throughout the hiring process. It was the first job I interviewed for and I got it :-) Without Andrea and Savvy, I would not be working at this amazing company. Oh and on my first day, she sent me the most beautiful bouquet of flowers! So happy to have connected with her. I've already started sending referrals to her because they are simply the BEST! read more

Megan and Savvy Search Solutions were amazing to work with! I recently graduated from college, and didn't know where to begin looking for jobs. Luckily, I found Megan, and after chatting on the phone she hand picked me my dream job. Now I have an amazing job, and love going to work every day. Without Savvy Solutions I wouldn't be where I am today. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a job in the Bay Area! Thanks Megan!!!! read more

I mostly worked with Andrea, but both her and Megan were wonderful. They were very nice and gave amazing prep emails for interviews. I always felt confident when going in to interviews. There are a lot of recruiting agencies in the Bay Area and I absolutely recommend starting with Savvy. Andrea listened to what I was looking for in a new role and I am so happy with my new job. read more

Great, first rate recruiting agency to work with! They come prepared and are highly informed about the job market with fantastic connections and excellent job opportunities. I highly recommend this firm if you are serious about getting a new job. Five stars all the way! Andrea and Megan are extremely knowledgeable and genuinely interested in getting you hired. read more

Andrea is amazing! She found me on LinkedIn, and only sent me jobs that she knew would work for me and my schedule. I had never worked with a recruiter before but loved the experience. She spent about 40 minutes answering all my questions about the company that I've just been hired at. She took care of all the scheduling and negotiations. I went from considering I may want a job, to having an offer letter, in about a week! read more

I have worked for many years as a recruiter and with third party recruiters. What I love about Andrea is the time she took to get to know me, as a candidate. Most recruiters meet you once and then throw meaningless job after meaningless job at you, but that is definitely not how Andrea works. In the past year, she has only worked with me on a small handful of opportunities, but in every single situation, she knew exactly what I was looking for. When she recently called me to say, "I have the perfect opportunity for you," I knew it would be special, but it turned out to be one of the greatest opportunities of my career. read more

After the first time I worked with a recruiting agency, I swore it would be my last. I was referred to Andrea through a friend and decided I would give it one last shot. I am SO glad I did! Meeting with Andrea was a night and day difference from the negative experience I had before with the large search firm. Andrea was genuinely interested in what I was looking for and I never felt rushed or pressured. I have referred a handful of friends to Andrea and will continue to send people her way! Its been a year now since my placement in the job she introduced me to and I am grateful for Andreas help because without her I would have never found this position/company. read more

Megan and Andrea are one spectacular team! They took the time to meet with me in person and really find out what I was looking for in my next role and company. They believed in me and went to bat for me for my dream role. Thank you so much for all of your hard work! I highly recommend Savvy Search Solutions when you are looking for your next career switch. read more

Despite this place only receiving positive reviews so far (I guess 6 isn't much and probably the only success stories ever for them in the span of years. Looks like one is a friend probably and the rest were first time job seekers). I was compelled to put in my opinion. This agency sucks (for lack of better words). Before going in person I submitted my CV and had a phone meeting...blah blah blah all good. Then I met in person and then never heard one word ever. Did not even respond to my inquiry months later. Eventually, I had to tell them to don't even try it was insulting to me as I was able to get several bites back on my own. I'm a well qualified/experienced candidate for the field of work they specialize in recruiting, it's hard to imagine you can't put me in front of anyone if you "had positions you are trying to fill". I am also trendy and up to date in tech. Don't waste your time. I was already employed looking for challenges and thought I could get some guidance from them early on in my search. Within a month after visiting this office I was able to secure 4 interviews All On My Own and eventually scored 3 competing job offers with established companies (been super happy in a great position for the last year) despite the discouraging words given by Megan (her "prestigious clients" and what they want) that I may not be up to par. My suggestion is to use Linked-in, network/ go out and apply,apply,apply... you don't need these ladies. I felt like they acted as they were very selective, but for the wrong reasons. Well if anyone was super stellar they wouldn't need their help and I probably proved that point. To me they gave me the vibe of "Mean girls" of recruiting. I know they have receptionist/entry level positions that probably are easier to fill. So maybe if that is what you are looking for they may be a good resource to get you in the door. Just a random note this place runs out of an tiny office suite that only fits two desks, everything seems like it is done in an empty shared conference room. This place is not savvy and provided no solutions. read more

I am so lucky to have found Megan at Savvy!! I had just been laid off and was lacking some confidence - until I met Megan! She was just what I needed to get myself back on track, and is by far different than the other recruiters I had met with. She listened to what MY wants and needs were, I didn't feel the pressure that she just wanted to stick me in a role. She was more of a match maker and connected me with my current role. She knew their wants and needs, figures out mine, and was the perfect go-between to put us together. Since meeting her, I've also sent over everyone I know looking for admin roles, because I KNOW she is exactly the person to make it happen. And Andrea is pretty amazing too :) They truly are the recruiting dynamic duo!! read more

Andrea helped me find an amazing job that I love! She asked deep questions and really got to know me during the screening process. Due to her diligence, she was able to connect me with a company that was a perfect fit for me! She took into account my job preferences and salary but more importantly- she understood my personality and set me up with a job that was a perfect fit. Andrea and Megan have amazing follow up and they have done an amazing job keeping in touch with me and checking in over the years. My company also used Savvy to hire the other two Executive Assistants that I work with and we all get along great! Savvy comes with my highest recommendation! read more

My husband and I were relocating from Southern California for a new job for him about two weeks ago when Andrea with Savvy reached out to me regarding my job search. I met her in person last week and she set me up with an interview at a top Venture Capital firm in Menlo Park. She was thoughtful not to share roles that she knew did not match my career goals, and I truly appreciate how clearly she listened to what I said about the importance of company culture and the type of environment I was looking to work in. I have worked with a lot of recruiters before, and moving up here I had reached out to many. Andrea will NOT put you in for a role that is below you, whereas a lot of other recruiters are most interested in placing you and moving on. She really cares. The interview she set up was actually for a temp job, with potential to turn in to full time. I hesitated, but Andrea assured me it would be worth my time. I am so glad that I listened to her!! The woman in HR that I met with in regards to this temp role said there was potential to hire FT and I told her that was the only way I was interested because I was interviewing with several other VC firms and also start ups, for FT jobs. I remember calling Andrea afterwards, saying, I THINK that they would consider hiring full time. She got right on it! I had two other offers on the table (one of which would expire in 2 days) and Andrea managed to work SO quickly to get me in the door and meet the Partner and also members of his team all in a matter of two days. That gave them the opportunity to make an offer (which they did!), and for me to weigh it against other options. Needless to say, without Andrea's help, I would not have gotten in the door here, nor would I have found an opportunity that matched all of my career goals. I start on Friday! I cannot wait to join this firm and I am so thankful to Andrea for making it happen! I highly recommend Savvy!! read more
