    I'll be the first to admit--I was skeptical of recruiters. After running into so many that didn't…read moreseem to have my best interests at heart, I wasn't sure working with one would lead anywhere meaningful. But Emily Cullen at The Larko Group completely changed that perception. After having a baby, I wasn't actively planning to return to work and was hesitant about re-entering the workforce with a gap in my work history. But Emily saw potential in me that I hadn't yet recognized in myself. She connected me with an opportunity at a medical device manufacturing startup in an operations and administrative role. Following the company's acquisition in 2024, I stayed on--what began as a leap of faith ultimately became the catalyst for a long-term career path. Since then, I've grown into a mid-level corporate role with exciting opportunities ahead in the medical device and technology industry. I'm incredibly grateful to Emily Cullen and The Larko Group for helping me take such a major step forward. If you're hesitant about working with recruiters, just know there are genuine professionals out there--and Emily is one of them. Great value and while it takes effort to apply and evalutate your skill and experience the return on your investment is high. I can't recommend her and The Larko Group enough!

    I was recently placed in an Executive Assistant role by The Larko Group. I was very impressed and…read moregrateful for the entire team's efforts throughout the process. Amy was very persistent with the search. She arranged several quality interviews, and Russ helped prepare me for those interviews. Andrea and Julie went above and beyond as well. I feel confident that they found the right fit for both me and the organization I've joined. I definitely recommend working with The Larko Group!

    One word to describe Wunderland Group - amazing! My friend referred me to Wunderland Group 4 years…read moreago after she spoke so highly of the staffing agency/team she worked with that helped placed her with a direct hire opportunity at Northwestern University. After connecting with Marisa Vrona, she was amazing keeping me in the loop of current career opportunities that best fit my level of experience and very personable! Fast forward to now, I met with Marisa and her colleague Alyssa Rubnitz for coffee yesterday since I've been in contact with them so long and never officially met them in person. They were both very bubbly, personable and I can see why we all stayed in contact for so long! They don't treat you like just another candidate, but like you're apart of the Wunderland family. Thanks to Alyssa, she placed me in a previous contract assignment with Choose Chicago and recently Northwestern Medicine as a Project Manager and had an overall amazing experience within both roles. I look forward to staying in contact if I never need further assistance within my career search and will continue sending referrals :)

    I can't recommend WunderLand Group enough. I've worked most closely with Marisa but also Molly and…read moreJessica. All three of them have been nothing but proactive in helping make my job search as seamless as possible. In the span of 9 months and two placements (two contract roles), Marisa has helped me better realize my career potential and reach my career goals. I've worked with other recruiting/talent agencies in the past, but none have been as helpful, responsive, and positive as WunderLand. They also do an awesome job at making you feel like your work and success is recognized. I would hands down recommend WunderLand!

    I had the most phenomenal job seeking experience thanks to Loren from 24Seven. Relocating cities is…read moreone tough thing, but the double whammy of being unemployed without having many contacts in a new city can be challenging & daunting. Loren reached out to me after I decided to start sending cold resumes out to Chicago after being let go from my position in Florida, and she is now the reason I am sitting in the office of my dream company right now. I've never met a more enthusiastic & supportive recruiter in my life, and it's all thanks to the wonderful crew at 24Seven Chicago. I plan on letting all of my creative friends know about 24Seven should they be on the job hunt. Remember, it's up to you to make yourself stand out first!

    Perhaps once a thriving recruitment agency, they've gone downhill - at least for the Chicago…read morebranch. With the last of their positive reviews being in 2014. The website contains outdated resources (2012-2014), advertises training options that don't exist after a telephone inquiry from the Chicago office, and an online job search and application system that takes away the human interaction between the potential job candidates and 24 Seven staff. It's not like days of the past where you can stop at a recruitment agency and hand in a resume - they won't even let you in the front door without an appointment. To get an appointment, you have apply through their online system and wait to see if they even want to interview you. I have over 10 years of professional experience and submitted for several of their online resources - even some of the jobs were re-published - but no call for even a "hey we would love to know more about you and what you can offer". I even called and their secretary was friendly, but even after submitting a resume directly to their email, no follow-up from them. I understand that the job market is tough, and I presume that many recruitment agencies are getting loaded with potential candidates, but a person who makes the time to conduct several inquiries should show some curiosity on the staff's part, In the end, you feel like a number and not a human being.
