I’ve been in recruiting for almost two decades and have helped thousands of job seekers achieve success and reach their goals. Finding a job in today’s market is harder and more frustrating than ever before. For many, the job search can feel like a daunting experience. My aim is to make this process more bearable and productive. While I may not be able to eliminate the rejection emails at first, with persistence and accountability, I can support you in finding the perfect job. Having been a job seeker myself, I understand how frustrating the search for a job can be. That's why I've developed a systematic approach that ensures we cover all the bases to improve your chances of success. When you work with me, you can be confident that you have an expert in your corner, giving you the best chance to negotiate the exceptional offer package you want and deserve. One of my most recent clients transitioned from Google to Meta, tripling his salary and securing an equity package along with a 40-60% bonus. The right job and the right compensation are out there; you just need to know how to position yourself. If you don’t know how to do this or don’t seek help, your chances may diminish. While you may continue applying aimlessly, keep in mind that others are putting in the extra effort and gaining an advantage over you. I realized early in my career that a person's attitude often matters more than skill in our hyper-aware modern work environment. Because of this, I can only work with individuals who genuinely want to help themselves and can accept constructive criticism. If this sounds like you, go ahead and book your call, and we’ll get down to business! What customers are saying: "James has provided me with excellent out-of-the-box thinking and advice on how to search for and apply to user research jobs, taking me off the beaten path. His innovative approach has repeatedly opened up job opportunities and conversations that I would not have otherwise encountered.

Additionally, he has tailored this advice to the niche world of user research, which is the icing on the cake. Thank you very much, James!” ~ Happy Client About Me: I grew up in the Bay Area and now split my time between West Oahu and the East Bay. My wife and I have a pack of dogs—there are quite a few! We do a lot of rescue and fostering for small dogs in Hawaii, which means we often have an extra dog or two around. When I’m not wrangling dogs or candidates, I love spending time outdoors. I also have a passion for technology and food, so you'll likely find me engaged in activities that combine all three!
