Her communication, follow-up and guidance through my interview process was instrumental in helping narrow down my options and make the best decision for my future career.

Great company to work with! Kammey found me and introduced me to a company in an industry I hadn’t even considered, but matched up very well with my background. She took the time to really understand the company and my background to determine the best fit, and walked me through the steps of the hiring process. I started working there this week and the more I learn about the company, the more excited I am about it! Major thanks to Kammey and SnapDragon!

Working with the team at SnapDragon Associates was a fabulous experience. Chelsea reached out and communicated every step of the hiring process, making sure I was always informed on what to expect from my potential employer during the interview. I still needed to prove myself during the interview, but I would have never have had the opportunity to get in front of the right people without the assistance of SnapDragon. I’m grateful for the professional assistance the SnapDragon team provided and I would highly recommend their services for professional placement. I’m very excited about my new position I recently started, thank you!

I am very thankful for Chantelle Pestana and the SnapDragon Team for helping me further my career. I was contacted by Chantelle directly and given an opportunity to join a well-respected company in my field of work. It wasn’t long after being contacted and screened to determine if I would be a good fit for this role and company, that I was set up with an interview. Chantelle was very helpful and kind throughout the entire experience; every step I took she was right there giving guidance and encouragement. Chantelle provided me with helpful reading material for my interview, as well as, coached me via phone and email so that I was comfortable and prepared. After the interview, I was offered the job that very same day! Chantelle negotiated salary and benefits with the company on my behalf. Even after I started, Chantelle stayed in touch with both the company and myself to make sure all parties were happy and it was a good fit for both. Overall, I am highly satisfied with how Chantelle preformed her job and would recommend any individual seeking a new career to work with the team at SnapDragon Associates. They made what normally is a very stressful and overwhelming process, exiting and worry free!

I recently found a position advertised by SnapDragon Associates which I thought would be a great fit. Upon applying for the position on SnapDragonAssociates.com, I was contacted by Madyson. Madyson was professional and courteous. We set up the interview, however, unfortunately I ended up very sick and was unable to keep the appointment at the last minute. Madyson contacted the employer on my behalf and re-scheduled the interview immediately. After the interview, Madyson took a real interest as to how it went. We had decided that we would follow up with the interviewer the following week. The employer contacted Madyson that day and made an offer! Madyson negotiated the best salary you could hope for in a professional and pleasant manner. Even when completing the process (background checks etc.), she was on top of every detail and pushed the whole process through as quickly as possible that I was able to start the next week. Thanks for everything!

I’m writing this letter to acknowledge the sincere and professional recruiting services I received from Jason Hooper, Executive Recruiter at SnapDragon Associates, during my most recent venture into a new Sales Position. Honestly–Jason was an amazing resource! At the time of Jason’s approach, I was in a “comfortable” role for about five years. I was kind of going through the motions and, where I wasn’t unhappy per-say, I certainly wasn’t feeling inspired or professionally progressive. Looking back on it, I feel like Jason was a long time friend that was able to see what I was lacking professionally, and amend that very situation without making me feel pressured or insecure about my current role. I would highly recommend the recruiting services of Jason and the whole SnapDragon team if you’re actively looking, or simply “comfortable.” They are unlike any recruiting firm I have ever worked with!

I just wanted to say a few things about my recent experience with SnapDragon Associates. I was placed at my new position using their services and it was a great experience, as well as totally professional. My contact Bob Lambert was great to work with, as he knew my strengths and placed me with a firm that can use my experience. I would encourage anyone who is looking for a new opportunity to send your resume to SnapDragon Associates and they will help you find that new opportunity! Again, my sincere thanks to the SnapDragon Team.

Working with the Team at SnapDragon was my first ever experience working with a professional recruiting firm. I could not be more happy with the level of professionalism and care I received over the last few weeks while embarking on a career change.

Thank you for all your support, I now have professional network I can refer people to and feel confidently that they are in good hands!

I am a Sales Professional with 12 years of experience in the LBM Industry. At a time when I really wanted help finding a new career opportunity, a friend recommended SnapDragon Associates. Truthfully, I was a bit concerned that this call would be a waste of my valuable time; I was still sold on the notion that pumping out resume after resume would do the trick. Wrong! Today I can say, to my friend, that calling Bob Lambert was one of the smartest decisions I’ve made. Bob, Madyson, Cassie, and the entire team at SnapDragon Associates listened to where I was coming from and where I wanted to go. They all went the extra mile by only putting me in front of the right opportunities, continually representing my best interests, and providing good, strong feedback along the way. With help from the SnapDragon team, I have landed a new career and I couldn’t be more excited or grateful. I am sincerely impressed with SnapDragon Associates and will, given the chance, pay it forward without hesitation. They are Best-In-Class in my book!

Kammey Grierson has been nothing but helpful and supportive in my journey of finding a new job. She was always very responsive to emails and even phone calls, which I very much appreciated. I first spoke with Kammey for a position I saw posted and she was immediately eager to help! She forwarded me an email asking me a series of questions to help figure out exactly what I was looking for in my next job opportunity. Before I knew it, within a matter of days, I had an interview! She was very helpful in coaching me through what I should do to prepare for the interview as well as giving me tips, such as where to park and what time I should leave, to get to my location on time. I got a second interview which then lead to a job offer! When I accepted the position, she coached me on giving my notice/resignation letter to, my now former, employer. She forwarded me a sample copy of a resignation letter which helped take the edge off. I would highly recommend working with Kammey and the team at SnapDragon Associates to anyone who is looking for a job. They are very personable and easy to speak with, which made this nerve wrecking change much easier!

I was recently working with Jason Hooper on an opportunity in New Jersey. It was a pleasure dealing with him throughout the hiring process.

Bob Lambert’s heartfelt desire to see me placed with a successful company and in a role that fit my strengths was clearly evident from the first time we spoke. He was easy to communicate with and helped me define what it was that I wanted to do when seeking a new position. I felt relaxed walking into the interview that he setup, and I know much of that feeling came from my confidence that Bob had done his job, and the position was the right one for me before I set foot in the door. I would not hesitate to recommend Bob and SnapDragon Associates to my friend and associates, and I can’t say enough good things about Bob personally.

Geoff, I want to thank for helping me with getting my new job. It’s been a wild ride since accepting the position and I finally feel like I’m getting my feet under myself enough to say thank you! I wanted you to know how thankful I am to you for your guidance and efforts. You pinpointed what the company was asking for and I feel like you found the needle in the haystack as my 5-year-old resume came bubbling through to the top. I love the very professional organization you turned me on to and I am forever grateful we crossed paths!

Kammey, I just want to thank you for your efforts and the results that came from those efforts. You have seemingly found the right match for my talents and your clients need and married the two. Your casual yet assertive approach is a refreshing change from the typical career counselor and I appreciated that. You were also very helpful with my search for housing which is more help than you can imagine, especially when you are transferring from one part of the country to another. You are a very polished professional; you held it together even dealing with me!

For our last two hires, we used SnapDragon as a resource for identifying Top Candidates for sales positions. They provided us with a broad selection of qualified people and provided us with valuable insight on each candidate. In the end, we hired both positions from the pool we received from SnapDragon and are very pleased with our selections.
– C. SPITZER
Bob, I wanted to send an email to thank you for all of the work that you put into my interview process. I’ve been contacted by several recruiters in the past year or two, and quite honestly, after working with a few of them, it became increasingly clear that as a candidate I was just a commodity item being shipped out. Most of them seemed to prefer finding many “okay matches,” versus a handful of great matches for the position. I understand this logic, but your approach really sets you apart from the other recruiters I’ve worked with in this capacity. You took the time to make sure first and foremost that I was a good fit for the company, as obviously they were sourcing you to do so, but you spent an equal amount of time making sure the company was a fit for me. In my opinion, you do the hiring company a disservice when you don’t do that, because if it won’t work for both parties, it will most likely not be a long term relationship even if someone is hired. As someone who has hired several people at my current company, if I were in a position to hire someone in the future, I would welcome the opportunity to work with you, as though I doubt I would get a ton of candidates, it would not be because you could not give me more, but because you only gave me the ones that made sense. As someone that was a candidate that worked with you, it was a breath of fresh of air to have a recruiter make sure I would be happy at the company he was sending me to, not just making sure I would hit the numbers they wanted from me. Thanks again! I could not be more excited about the new chapter I am starting, and I appreciate all you’ve done to make that possible.

It is my pleasure to highly recommend Mark Barnard and his team at SnapDragon Associates, LLC. Their team is a group of recruiting experts who really take the time to understand the unique needs of each client. Mark is a trusted advisor who brings added value to his clients, based upon his industry knowledge, experience, and skillset.

– PRESIDENT, BUILDING MATERIALS
I was aware of SnapDragon Associates prior to entering in a working relationship with them a few years ago. Their way of business and specific industry knowledge was very appealing as I looked to increase the quality of the personnel at my organization. Every candidate submitted since the inception of our relationship has been screened appropriately, something that can’t be said about every recruiting firm. The associates at SnapDragon are thorough, diligent, and able to answer in depth questions about candidates. SnapDragon consistently follows up on all candidates submitted and I am continually impressed with their quick response. Their understanding of my business needs means I can respect and trust their opinion as to why the candidate would be a good fit. I enjoy the open dialogue and am pleased with the experience we have had with SnapDragon Associates thus far. Their professional staff is always helpful and we look forward to continuing our business relationship in the coming years.

I found my ‘individual’ job search efforts to be quite an arduous process, hence my contact with your office. SnapDragon Associates extensively explored my objectives while listening intently, then created a professional profile that I found to be an invaluable asset directed toward my career search efforts. I experienced upbeat and productive interactions with your office as well. It’s very evident that SnapDragon Associates has a genuine respect for their clients while being cognitive of their best interests. I couldn’t have asked for more! Thank you again.

I would like to take a few moments to share a few thoughts regarding SnapDragon Associates. My Experience with SnapDragon, specifically my interaction with Mark Barnard and Bob Lambert, has provided our business with an outstanding demonstration of how the world of employment recruiting and employee searches can and should be run. They have provided our business with direction and support with their efforts proving to have been a major factor in a successful search. Their demonstration of understanding of our needs was translated in the rapid presentation of highly qualified candidates in, what proved to be, a relatively short period of time. This success, enhanced by their demonstrated knowledge and a strong commitment to ethical standards, enables me to confidently recommend SnapDragon Associates as a strategic ally and certainly as experts in their field.

Kammey Grierson has been nothing but helpful and supportive in my journey of finding a new job. She was always very responsive to emails and even phone calls, which I very much appreciated. I first spoke with Kammey for a position I saw posted and she was immediately eager to help! She forwarded me an email asking me a series of questions to help figure out exactly what I was looking for in my next job opportunity. Before I knew it, within a matter of days, I had an interview! She was very helpful in coaching me through what I should do to prepare for the interview as well as giving me tips, such as where to park and what time I should leave, to get to my location on time. I got a second interview which then lead to a job offer! When I accepted the position, she coached me on giving my notice/resignation letter to, my now former, employer. She forwarded me a sample copy of a resignation letter which helped take the edge off. I would highly recommend working with Kammey and the team at SnapDragon Associates to anyone who is looking for a job. They are very personable and easy to speak with, which made this nerve wrecking change much easier!

I recently accepted a new job and it would not have been possible without the excellent service and help from Executive Recruiter, Madyson Caruso! She consistently stayed in touch with me and went to my future employer on my behalf. She is a good representation of the employees at SnapDragon Associates. Thank you and keep up the great work!

Bob Lambert’s heartfelt desire to see me placed with a successful company and in a role that fit my strengths was clearly evident from the first time we spoke. He was easy to communicate with and helped me define what it was that I wanted to do when seeking a new position. I felt relaxed walking into the interview that he setup, and I know much of that feeling came from my confidence that Bob had done his job, and the position was the right one for me before I set foot in the door. I would not hesitate to recommend Bob and SnapDragon Associates to my friend and associates, and I can’t say enough good things about Bob personally.

It was a real pleasure working with Snapdragon Associates, LLC. They are fantastic at taking the time and effort to really understand what their candidates are looking for which makes the task of looking for a new job far less stressful. It’s easy to build a strong relationship with the team and they are always professional and extremely friendly. Snapdragon would always be my first agency to recommend when friends and colleagues are pursuing new careers. Madyson Caruso, the Executive Recruiter I worked with, was so very helpful every step of the way.

Geoff, I want to thank for helping me with getting my new job. It’s been a wild ride since accepting the position and I finally feel like I’m getting my feet under myself enough to say thank you! I wanted you to know how thankful I am to you for your guidance and efforts. You pinpointed what the company was asking for and I feel like you found the needle in the haystack as my 5-year-old resume came bubbling through to the top. I love the very professional organization you turned me on to and I am forever grateful we crossed paths!

Kammey, I just want to thank you for your efforts and the results that came from those efforts. You have seemingly found the right match for my talents and your clients need and married the two. Your casual yet assertive approach is a refreshing change from the typical career counselor and I appreciated that. You were also very helpful with my search for housing which is more help than you can imagine, especially when you are transferring from one part of the country to another. You are a very polished professional; you held it together even dealing with me!

Bob, I wanted to send an email to thank you for all of the work that you put into my interview process. I’ve been contacted by several recruiters in the past year or two, and quite honestly, after working with a few of them, it became increasingly clear that as a candidate I was just a commodity item being shipped out. Most of them seemed to prefer finding many “okay matches,” versus a handful of great matches for the position. I understand this logic, but your approach really sets you apart from the other recruiters I’ve worked with in this capacity. You took the time to make sure first and foremost that I was a good fit for the company, as obviously they were sourcing you to do so, but you spent an equal amount of time making sure the company was a fit for me. In my opinion, you do the hiring company a disservice when you don’t do that, because if it won’t work for both parties, it will most likely not be a long term relationship even if someone is hired. As someone who has hired several people at my current company, if I were in a position to hire someone in the future, I would welcome the opportunity to work with you, as though I doubt I would get a ton of candidates, it would not be because you could not give me more, but because you only gave me the ones that made sense. As someone that was a candidate that worked with you, it was a breath of fresh of air to have a recruiter make sure I would be happy at the company he was sending me to, not just making sure I would hit the numbers they wanted from me. Thanks again! I could not be more excited about the new chapter I am starting, and I appreciate all you’ve done to make that possible.

I found my ‘individual’ job search efforts to be quite an arduous process, hence my contact with your office. SnapDragon Associates extensively explored my objectives while listening intently, then created a professional profile that I found to be an invaluable asset directed toward my career search efforts. I experienced upbeat and productive interactions with your office as well. It’s very evident that SnapDragon Associates has a genuine respect for their clients while being cognitive of their best interests. I couldn’t have asked for more! Thank you again.

Frankly, I don’t know whether its COVID, your excellent work, or a combination of both, but we have never seen a recruiter produce so many qualified candidates. As you sent more and more resumes, we just kept shaking our heads. Thanks so much for your assistance!

I was recently working with Jason Hooper on an opportunity in New Jersey. It was a pleasure dealing with him throughout the hiring process. He is great to talk to and I appreciated his candor and responsiveness. Jason, and by extension, SnapDragon, set the standard for what recruiting firms should be!
– Valued Client
For our last two hires, we used SnapDragon as a resource for identifying Top Candidates for sales positions. They provided us with a broad selection of qualified people and provided us with valuable insight on each candidate. In the end, we hired both positions from the pool we received from SnapDragon and are very pleased with our selections.

I was aware of SnapDragon Associates prior to entering in a working relationship with them a few years ago. Their way of business and specific industry knowledge was very appealing as I looked to increase the quality of the personnel at my organization. Every candidate submitted since the inception of our relationship has been screened appropriately, something that can’t be said about every recruiting firm. The associates at SnapDragon are thorough, diligent, and able to answer in depth questions about candidates. SnapDragon consistently follows up on all candidates submitted and I am continually impressed with their quick response. Their understanding of my business needs means I can respect and trust their opinion as to why the candidate would be a good fit. I enjoy the open dialogue and am pleased with the experience we have had with SnapDragon Associates thus far. Their professional staff is always helpful and we look forward to continuing our business relationship in the coming years.

Mark and his staff are tremendous. If you are looking for placement within the LBM Industry, this is the team. I recently went through a job transition that was made easy by SnapDragon Associates. I wholeheartedly endorse Mark and his team.

I would like to take a few moments to share a few thoughts regarding SnapDragon Associates. My Experience with SnapDragon, specifically my interaction with Mark Barnard and Bob Lambert, has provided our business with an outstanding demonstration of how the world of employment recruiting and employee searches can and should be run. They have provided our business with direction and support with their efforts proving to have been a major factor in a successful search. Their demonstration of understanding of our needs was translated in the rapid presentation of highly qualified candidates in, what proved to be, a relatively short period of time. This success, enhanced by their demonstrated knowledge and a strong commitment to ethical standards, enables me to confidently recommend SnapDragon Associates as a strategic ally and certainly as experts in their field.
