Liz. C says Ed Carrol is a true master of his craft.

Ed Carrol has been one of the best recruiter experiences I’ve had in my entire career. He was thorough, empathetic, genuine, supportive and an amazing nose for talent. He sourced me for a role that was so aligned with my niche skill set, it truly was like the job was created custom for me. He is a true master of his craft and his support during this interview and placement process has been second to none.

Thank you so much,
Liz C.

Ed sniped me out, he just knew that I would be interested based on my profile. From beginning to end he has kept constant communication with me and has been a great guide in the process.

I’m thankful that he reached out because it got me out of a job, I wasn’t so happy at and starting a new journey! Thanks to Ed!

Best,

Dasha T.

In my most recent, and successful, job hunt, I had the pleasure of working with Ed Carroll. This was my first time working with a recruiter on the employee side, and Ed could not have set a better example. He was professional, kind, and incredibly prompt. He did an excellent job explaining the process and his role in it along with who the company was he was placing for and what their overall style was. Without Ed I would not have been able to land my most recent job, and I hope to have the pleasure of working with him again in the future!

Thanks!
