I have dealt with a lot of recruiters, but Joe Mayer and Ana Bird are truly outstanding. Many recruiters make you feel used or proverbially “pimped” and then discarded. This was the OPPOSITE of what I experienced with Joe and Ana. They overhauled my resume and taught me how to present an accurate yet upgraded version of my professional profile, while imparting wisdom on how to highlight the skills that key institutions are seeking. The experience of communicating and interacting with Joe and Ana was a tremendous value-add, as were the opportunities they put me in line with. This company combines big-corporation intelligence with personalized knowledge, coaching, and attention. A best-in-class experience!

I had the pleasure of working with Michael during my transition to a global law firm, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. His communication was consistent, clear, and genuinely supportive throughout every stage of the process. He ensured I was well informed, prepared, and confident as I navigated each step. What truly sets Michael apart is the level of personal care he brings to his work. Even after I accepted the position, he continued to check in, offering guidance and encouragement that felt more like the support of a trusted friend than simply a recruiter. Michael’s professionalism, integrity, and dedication made a significant impact on my career journey. I cannot speak highly enough of his expertise and the positive experience he provided. I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking a recruiter who is both highly skilled and genuinely invested in your success.

His insights into the industry, clear communication, and strategic guidance made the entire experience seamless and empowering. If you’re looking for a recruiter who’s not only incredibly skilled but also deeply invested in your success, Michael is the one. I’m grateful for his support and highly recommend him to anyone navigating the next step in their career.

Joe is amazing! I had interviews (multiple) within two days of speaking to Joe about my interests and potential opportunities. I accepted a position two weeks from the date of my first call with Joe. He gave me candid advice, had my back, and bridged any communication gaps between me, as a candidate, and the firm. His follow up is impeccable! Thanks Joe.

Joseph had reached out to me regarding an opportunity he thought would be a great fit for my experience and an even better jump for my next career move. This was a position I would have otherwise never considered applying for. Not only did he help me along through the interview process, but he also always made a point to keep me apprised of all updates. He truly was a beacon of hope in the recruiting world and helped push me to see my future potential. Even after my start at this new position, Joe continued to follow up with me to check on my training and onboarding. Joseph continues to remind me of all the good recruiters can be out there. He does not just see me as a body to fill the position, but he treats me as a human with

goals and aspirations. It was not just about a commission to Joseph. It was about helping me find my happiness again and helping the firm find the leader they need to move back towards continued success. I know I have said it plenty, but I will always be thankful for Joseph reaching out to me when he did. He understands the roles he needs to fill, but also understands the kind of team player he needs in that role. It is not just about the tools one has, to Joseph, it is about the ability to use the tools they currently have in their kit.

I cannot say enough great things about working with Ana. From start to finish, she truly went above and beyond in every possible way. As someone in the legal field, finding the right position — not just any position — was incredibly important to me. Ana understood that immediately. She took the time to learn what I was looking for professionally and personally, and she was genuinely invested in helping me find the best fit. Throughout the entire process, she was in constant communication, keeping me informed, prepared, and confident every step of the way. Her guidance, insight into the legal market, and attention to detail made what can often be a stressful experience feel seamless and manageable. I always felt supported and advocated for. If you are looking to work with a recruiter who is knowledgeable, responsive, professional, and truly cares about her candidates, I wholeheartedly recommend Ana.

Joe was very helpful and diligent with my job search, and, because of that, I would highly recommend him. He prepared me for interviews by providing me with insights he learned from his interactions with the firms, gave me great tips and advice when dealing with interviewers and hiring committees, and was always available to assist with any questions or comments I had. He began helping me at the beginning of my job search and he has remained in touch after I was hired, ensuring the job he helped me earn continues to be fulfilling.

Joe is a pleasure to work with. Within two days of speaking with Joe I was scheduled to interview at a firm in downtown Chicago. Within two weeks, I was hired. Joe was extremely communicative and helpful throughout the process. If I ever had any questions, he would answer them immediately. Joe is not like other recruiters who submit your application and then disappear. I truly recommend him if you are looking to make a career move.

Joe is the best there is. His knowledge of the field is matched only by his responsiveness and desire to find the exact right fit for his clients. When I first contacted him, I was at sea, confused about how to take the next step in my career. Joe not only facilitated my career shift, but also walked me through the entire process, providing sound advice with the comfort and ease of a seasoned professional. I’m not making another move without consulting Joe first.
