Elizabeth G.
Between jobs, Charlie found me on Dice, and pre-screened me on the phone for his clients. His questions showed that he is an astute seasoned recruiter who can match not only our skills, but our lifestyle to the requesting opportunities. He really looks out for the best fit on both sides. If you have a chance to talk with him, you will see what I mean.
Michelle K.
Charlie has a knack for matching people and technical resources to the businesses that need them. He listens to the great potential that can be provided and the businesses that need them. Charlie placed both my husband, Scott and myself in full time and contract positions. Both have been successful endeavors, allowing our careers to flourish as well as the respected clients to grow with success.
Tom Q.
I've discussed my career path with over a dozen recruiters, and Charlie has been my favorite to work with. Charlie really got what I was looking for and was good at advocating for it. Recruiters have to serve their hiring clients, and often neglect their talent unless there is an immediate need. Charlie gets that good business requires consistent follow-ups and dialogue. I've recommended him to others and would again in the future.

He is one of the best recruiters in the Portland.
