Repeating arrows

We reach out to hundreds of candidates each week, doing the pick-and-shovel work of surfacing the best people for your role - many aren’t even actively looking but are now considering bringing their exceptional skills to work for you.

Jay views things from a 360-degree perspective. He gets to the heart of the matter quickly while offering a roadmap of solid solutions.

Heather is curious and asks thoughtful questions - from clients and candidates to culture and colleagues. She digs deep to identify areas of importance for your company.

They are the perfect size and model for us. Large enough that they have reach, resources, and expertise but small enough that their team meets with us regularly and personally vets all candidates.

Hiring Propeller Talent makes our day-to-day easier. They allow us to focus on the actual work of our portfolio companies.

You know you’re dealing with the people that own the company. They make us feel important, it’s a great relationship.

It’s nice to have the two-year guarantee, but we haven’t had to use it. Most firms only give you one year.

They just get good results. We feel confident because of how they pull people from working gigs.
