Bio
John Putnam
As a colleague of Matt Smith, I would recommend him with the highest regard. Matt has been a key player as a Recruiter, HR Generalist, and Leader within our organization. I have worked closely with Matt on several projects with a high success rate. Matt is not only very professional and competent, but also a very friendly and compassionate team member. I regret not being able to continue to work with him, but whole-heartedly recommend Matt to any organization. His dedication, hard work and sincerity has provided him with the tools to be successful with any organization lucky enough to have him.

Matt is an exceptionally skilled recruiter. Having worked both across the table from Matt and later alongside him, I can confidently state that Matt epitomizes everything one could ask for from a Studio Recruiter and HR generalist. He's simply one of the best recruiters I've had the pleasure to work with. Always a consummate professional, Matt navigates negotiations, manages constraints and adapts to the needs of a dynamic, startup culture with aplomb. He gives you quality hires and does not stop until the deals are done and deadlines are met. Youth Digital is a diverse mix of technical, creative and business professionals with a distinct startup culture, and that is due in no small part to Matt's direct contributions and actions. I hope that I am fortunate enough to work with Matt again in the future. I give him my highest recommendation.
