Bio
Dmitriy Neyman
Brian was awesome during the recent 3 weeks long "Agile Sprint" that seemingly had a single story on its board - helping me to achieve career goals I set, and navigate the hot but tricky and demanding market for the senior engineering talent. Since the first phone chat with Brian, I felt immediately that we can put aside this typical "recruiter-candidate dance" and get to work immediately as partners intellectually and emotionally vested in their project. Brian was proactive in his communications, always very clear about the next steps and flexible when there was a need for last-minute changes. Eventually, with his help, I landed an awesome position in a top-notch company. I am very grateful to Brian and folks at Talener and sincerely recommend them to individual engineers looking for the next career move, as well as to companies in need of highly professional and efficient recruiting services.
