Describe the project or task Candidate Labs helped with:

I wanted to find a job in fintech or tech, specifically in a Customer Success Manager role. I was able to work closely with Katie Ostrander at Candidate Labs to review a couple of intriguing opportunities and take the next steps in applying. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Candidate Labs?

The personal attention and follow-ups I received. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Candidate Labs?

Sometimes there can be many follow-ups without many updates to provide, but they were still useful for staying on top of the process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Candidate Labs:

I would recommend using them to see how it can make your job search process easier and more effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Candidate Labs solving and how is that benefiting you?

Rather than guessing as to how to best prepare for an interview, the pre-interview prep sessions were very helpful in feeling prepared for each interview I had. I was able to be more confident and assured that I would be answering the right questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Describe the project or task Candidate Labs helped with:

Candidate labs initiated conversations with me that led to an offer at Knowde. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Candidate Labs?

I appreciated Aaron's persistence with reaching out to me over LinkedIn and his ability to advocate for me throughout the interview process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Candidate Labs?

Aaron was excellent. If I had to give one note of feedback, it would be to connect with the company team more often before reaching out to the candidate - this would eliminate discrepancies between the process (ie: asking if I got the paperwork when I had already accepted!)

I honestly do not have one thing I disliked coming from the Candidate side of the equation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Candidate Labs:

Candidate Labs was the best "recruiter" I've ever worked with. Maddie was part recruiter and part guidance counselor for me. She was able to communicate in multiple forms of communication (email, phone, text) and willing to discuss whatever questions I had. I cannot say enough great things about the process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Candidate Labs solving and how is that benefiting you?

I was a potential hire candidate that Candidate Labs worked to bring in at a technology company. Maddie made me comfortable with the opportunity, including ensuring title, roles, responsibilities, and compensation were all aligned as early in the process as humanly possible.

Describe the project or task Candidate Labs helped with:

I honestly was just sticking my feet in the water to find a new job. Liam hit me up at the right time. I have to say, I NEVER use recruiters because my experience is they try to fit you in a box to fill roles. I have always been able to move up faster and increase my pay by finding opportunities on my own. Liam listened to what I was looking for and found two great companies. He got me everything I asked for and even more. Work with Candidate labs and askfor Liam. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Candidate Labs?

I liked that Liam listened to me and found roles around my skills and not the other way around. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Candidate Labs?

Honestly, this is my first time working with a recruiter and everything about the process was amazing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Candidate Labs:

Have Liam handle your hires Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Describe the project or task Candidate Labs helped with:

Candidate Labs sourced me on behalf of Parsec.app as they sought a Director of Inside Sales. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Candidate Labs?

Personable & attentive communication. I felt Candidate Labs was genuinely interested in the success of both parties. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Candidate Labs?

My experience was all upside. I can be difficult to nail down with my schedule so their ability to work with me and that challenge deserves kudos. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Candidate Labs:

Let them show you how they make the candidate sourcing experience different (and better). Even if for a one-time hire, it is worth seeing how the recruiting industry is changing and how this company is leading that change. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Candidate Labs solving and how is that benefiting you?

Candidate Labs provided a thorough dossier of the position they were filling on behalf of their client. They demonstrated their knowledge of the wants and needs of the firm's executive leadership and why those were important. I felt their team truly cared about both parties, which provided a positive experience throughout. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
