testimonials

“Startup Founders and Executives are obsessives… we have a radical sense of purpose, mission, and urgency. Crazy levels of grit. Higher standards than 99.9% of the world. That's what we share in common with Quantum. We're cut from the same cloth.

Their culture is unique — the level of intensity, passion, and urgency are rare to come by. They care about who they bring into their companies — It's not just about the placements. Working alongside people that care just as much as you, who have the same high standards and burning desire to make it happen at all costs… that's what you can't put a price on.”

“Chris is one in a million. He's not just a recruiter, he's a relationship builder who genuinely cares about the companies he's helping to build and the candidates he finds. From the minute you get on the phone with Chris, his passion and drive radiates, and is contagious. My experience with him was nothing less than amazing, and now not only is Chris someone I had the pleasure of working with, he's a friend.”

“Definition of a grinder -- Chris doesn't stop until the job is done. He has done a fantastic job of filling his company with the same type of person. In a business like recruiting that is often very transactional, Chris is one of the few that prioritizes long-term relationship building. Highly recommend.”

"Chris and the folks @ Quantum are *actually* next level. Here's why:

1.Speed. I was blown away by the urgency in which Chris and his team operate. Each of our executive searches were completed in weeks, not quarters.

2.Quality of Candidates. Chris has an uncanny ability to bring the *very* best talent on the phone, excited to chat. I don't know how he does it -- but he does it.

3.Care. Chris *actually* gives a shit. You can tell that he wants it -- and the results speak for themselves.

If you care about maximizing the quality of your team, and moving with urgency -- Chris is your guy."
