Joshua's testimonials

Josh is very professional recruiter. He is always dedicated in his job, efficient with responding all communications and needs for his clients. I wouldn't be able to hire so quickly without the support from Josh. Highly recommended to any employers whom are looking for talents from the software engineering field.
Angel Fung HR Manager at Qumata
I’ve worked in software engineering for 17 years, and worked with a number of recruiters. I have a very short list of recruiters that I trust, who work with integrity, and have access to some great jobs and great clients. Josh is one of those recruiters. Always willing to help, very knowledgeable about the industry, and won't BS you. He even talked to my son about the recruitment industry for me. I would happily recommend (and I regularly do) Josh to any company looking for a great recruiter, and any engineer looking to place their next role.
Stuart Marsh CTO at Qumata
It has been great chatting with Josh when searching for talent. Regardless of the agent-client relationship, Josh provided value by volunteering to share his research of the market place no strings attached. Great approach, will definitely consider your services when possible.
