Testimonials

Thank you so much Nikki for your heartfelt holiday wishes. After my first week at work for CVR Energy I can tell you it already feels like home. I just love being in a plant environment, I really like the leadership team and the interactions I've had with them so far, and can't wait to continue to learn and expand my role here. And I couldn't have done any of it without you matching me up with this job--thank you!

Mechanical Engineering Supervisor

Carol, Thank you very much for the insight. You’ve been a huge help throughout this process. Too many talent acquisition folks these days make it a very transactional relationship. Your attention to detail and honest insight really helps provide confidence and a positive experience and I really appreciate it. Thank you again!

In my professional career, I have worked with many different recruiters and staffing agencies and Whitaker Technical has provided me with the best experience. For most recruiters, it’s just about placing someone first and collecting a fee, but my recruiter developed a relationship. She spent considerable time and energy to get to know my personal and professional situation and my goals in life. She guided me in the moments of self-doubt and the search for the right career move. She used her considerable knowledge of the industry to guide me to the right company. I would recommend my friends to work with her in the future based on my extremely good experience.

Faizaan Mustafa, PSM Engineer

I worked with Carol for eight years to finally land that perfect position. Throughout the whole process, she was very professional and courteous. She also provided great insight throughout my decision-making process. There are several recruiting firms; what differentiates Carol (Whitaker Technical) is she removes a considerable amount of the burden from the job search and makes it…FUN!

Rob Walker, Senior Engineering Program Manager

Carol, I wanted to take the time to thank you for all your time and help working with me and (client). This is a second successful career move I have made working with you and definitely appreciate it.

Process Optimization Engineer

Carol, Thank you for the conversation this morning and for taking time out of your Sunday. I really appreciate the feedback! It really summarized the last 20 years of my career and gave me feedback that I hadn’t heard before, which I will definitely use for further development and improvement going forward regardless of the outcome. I can say having interviewed with many companies this particular aspect of your process (feedback) separates you and your company from many other companies and I have found it to be very professionally enriching. Thank you very much.
