Read moreClint Carpenter's standards of Recruiting are TOP NOTCH!
To begin, Clint Carpenter was the ONLY recruiter I didn't get a generic template e-mail from. He actually took the time to look at my complete resume. In the first few days we spoke, he really took the time in our conversations to get to know what was important to me in a future job as well as what I knew I did not want. He checked in with me every day, whether it was to help coach me for an interview or just follow up if I'd gotten feedback. When I finally did get the offer I wanted, there was a snag and the paperwork with the company was delayed by 2 weeks. It was incredibly frustrating, but Clint called or texted me EVERY single day to encourage me and make sure I was ok as well as doing whatever he could from his end to help facilitate the paperwork. I never felt like I was alone in the job search process. Clint is professional, positive and you can tell he genuinely loves helping people. I would recommend him to anyone!!!!Lethr' Rothert
Clint Carpenter was wonderful!
I worked with Clint Carpenter on getting a job. Clint did an amazing job helping me with my resume, walking me through the process and giving me help and interview tips. He was in communication with me everyday about what was going on and keeping me in the know. I would call on Clint again if I ever needed him!Gary Summers
Couldn't have done it without Clint Carpenter!
Clint Carpenter was a tremendous help in securing employment. From the initial phone conversation, up to post job acceptance, he has been a tremendous help. He even helped me to prepare for the interview, which is always a nervous moment. I felt confident and comfortable going into the interview process. Thanks to his preparation, I was offered the job on the spot! I would definitely recommend him to all of my associates and anyone looking for employment. If I ever need to find a new job, he will be 100% the first person I will contact.Thanks, Brandon
Clint Carpenter made this process seamless!
I recently moved to Charlotte NC about a year ago because of family. Oddly enough when I got a call from an unknown number which was Clint, I was actually in between jobs at the time. Nonetheless, he took the time and patience to ask me questions about why I was here in Charlotte, where I've been working, if I'm interested in the opportunities elsewhere, etc. I think our first actual conversation was about 2 1/2 hours long. Which to me was appreciated not only for the professionalism, but in this day and age just to have that much patience with someone you don't even know. He's kept great contact and put my best foot forward as well, will remain in contact throughout the training or first 60 days. I've had pretty bad experiences in the past with recruiters who had also reached out to me, but didn't remain in contact or follow through. That being said I had no plans in using a recruiting service, but to say the least, Clint is not only a true professional but just a good human being all around! Just from talking to him he actually sounds like he truly enjoys life and helping people which is rare nowadays. Keep on doing what you do Clint! & Enjoy those early morning turkey hunts.Best Regards,
Adam
