Henry Vogel, Co-founder and Managing Director, DVx Ventures
“I’ve had the pleasure of working with many recruiters throughout my career. Jess is terrific and a cut above the rest. Along with her Executive People team, she is extremely well networked and understands the start-up world very well. We worked together recently for our search for a Head of Merchandising. She quickly calibrated with us on our needs, sourced a select group of highly qualified candidates and helped us narrow in on and close an amazing hire. Jessica and her team are a strategic partner of ours and a tremendous asset.”
Donny Jensen, CMO, blk.
“Jess is a fantastic recruiter, people connector and truly understands the modern marketing and brand landscape. In fact, she’s exclusive in that she only works with companies and talent that posses this quality. I’ve worked with Jess as a candidate who successfully landed an amazing job, where she helped me navigate everything from interviewing my new team to negotiating the best possible compensation package. And later as a hiring manager who needed essentially every role in my marketing organization filled out. Jess was always available to me and on calls with me almost daily. I would highly recommend Jess both from a candidate and hiring manager perspective.”
Michael Campi, VP Marketing, Maev
“If you're looking for an expert in executive recruiting, look no further.
I worked with Jess to get placed in a VP Marketing role. Jess was extremely communicative throughout the process, found answers to all my questions in a timely manner and advocated for what I needed throughout the recruiting process. She did all this while balancing the needs of her client and making the process seamless for both parties.
She is great to work with and I wouldn't hesitate to hire her to recruit for future roles on my team.”
Charlie Hart, CMO, Dyrdek Machine
“I’ve worked with a lot of recruiters over the years, both as client and candidate. It's one of those things you need, but never truly enjoy because, let’s face it, the task is typically close to impossible. You’re looking for a unicorn, whether its a company or a person. There’s clear risk of being dissatisfied and apathetic. Jess changed all that for me. She understands the market, understands the work you would be doing or need (oddly rare in the recruiter world) and most importantly, she understands people. She is the ultimate read on humans and how they might fit together. I’ve had the pleasure of working with her as a candidate and I’m excited about working with her as a client. She is an honest, gracious and wickedly intelligent partner to have throughout the process.”
Brittany Kelly, Merchandising Operations Lead, Loop Baby
“I had never worked with a recruiter before when Jess reached out to me about a potential new role. From the first conversation, I felt at ease with her. She is kind, friendly, compassionate and truly invested in helping people find a role that is well-suited to their strengths and fulfilling to their passions.
Jess thoroughly prepared me for all of my interviews and it was so nice to have such a positive person in my corner throughout the process.
I highly recommend working with Jess on your next career move. She is an awesome person, motivated by helping others and forming meaningful connections.”
Jeff Hornstein, Meta Business Group (former colleague at Compass)
“Jessica is a black belt in relationship building and an expert at negotiating. She closed many deals at Compass that others wouldn't, simply because she was able to establish a strong personal relationship with any agent she spoke to. She was also able to win deals when a competing brokerage offered more money , more leads, and less hassle. Despite always fighting an uphill battle, she consistently met or exceeded quotas and expectations.”
Jason Berngard, Head of Sales, Affirm (former manager at Gilt)
“Jess is extremely passionate about her job, the success of the company and making it happen every single day. Jess goes above and beyond her daily responsibilities by creating best practices, strategy and guidance for the team. She has played a critical role in the succes of our team. Jess is someone that you want on your team; she is hardworking, career driven, energetic and loyal.”
