Bio
Josh Youman
Kurt shared his wealth of recruitment consulting knowledge with our team and company in 2017. He consulted with our Talent Acquisition team, our hiring managers and senior executives to fill some critical roles for us. Kurt always had the best interests of both the Company and his candidates in mind as he sought out great matches for our open positions. Kurt was successful at understanding our business and finding candidates with the appropriate and right matching skills and company values. I'd love to work with Kurt again and can recommend him highly.

I had the privilege of having Kurt on my Talent Acquisition team at Magnet 360, a Mindtree company. He is both skilled and experienced at finding top talent in the very competitive technology recruiting environment. Kurt easily engages candidates and has a very deep and extensive network. He is result oriented and willing to do what it takes to fill a position. He truly is an asset to any organization!

Kurt is a great friend and an excellent salesperson. He is extremely knowledgeable about his clients, he is outstanding at negotiating, he sees reqs through from start to finish, and thrives on networking and building relationships. His desire to meet every candidate before they get in front of clients to represent them properly and ensure they truly are a great fit demonstrates his desire to do what's in the best interest of the client. He exudes confidence, works well in a team environment and has a great attitude. I had a lot of fun working with Kurt, but I also could rely on him to bring in a steady stream of jobs. He could quickly pinpoint the candidate that he knew would get the job upon meeting them, and time after time, he was correct. Only someone with his tenure and leadership would have those kind of instincts. He taught me how to keep a competitive edge in a very cutthroat industry and how to streamline my recruiting process for each position. I wish the best for Kurt, and any organization would be very fortunate to have his talent.
