Their technical screening process saved us countless hours and ensured we only interviewed candidates with the exact skills we required. The recruiters demonstrated deep knowledge of algorithmic trading and what makes a successful quant. All three hires have exceeded performance metrics in their first year. I wouldn’t hesitate to partner with them again for our future hiring needs.
