venture-backed & startup highlights
Caleigh is one of the strongest recruiters and talent partners I've worked with. We partnered on a senior search in a very early-stage, ambiguous environment, and she consistently turned fuzzy needs into a clear, thoughtful hiring strategy. She pressure-tested what we actually needed for the company's trajectory, and never tried to “force a fit” or oversell a candidate.
Caleigh goes further than any recruiter I've worked with to find a truly holistic match, not just for the role, but for you as a person. She's incredibly thoughtful in her approach, highly efficient, and never wastes your time. After the intake call, you can expect high-quality candidates who are ready to hit the ground running. Five stars.
Caleigh did a fantastic job understanding what I was looking for and addressing my concerns throughout the process. She's been incredibly communicative and down to earth, and really championed me as a candidate. She genuinely advocated for me rather than just trying to push a placement.
“she brings a rare sense of humanity to recruiting. Caleigh takes the time to understand who you are beyond the resume, and it shows in the roles she connects you with.”

She took the time to understand my experience, my expectations and where I see myself in few years. Most importantly, she managed to see me as a whole person with my baggage and my values as a human being. Something that many recruiters fail to understand is that beyond our professional/technical skills that are necessary for any role, we have a set of non-cognitive skills that cannot be measured by IQ Tests. Caleigh has just the sensitivity to detect the right candidate who can succeed in the role but also can bring those extra subconscious mind skills. Thank you Caleigh!”

Caleigh really got me from the beginning and knew exactly what job opportunities truly resonate with me, making the process so easy for me. And the best part is she brings so much joy and energy to the process while being super professional. Thanks for making this incredible match possible.
