Neil is a great professional. He has found me and offered an opportunity which I haven’t ever dream of. Working with him was a pleasure. He has always been in contact with me and provided support through the whole interviewing and hiring processes. It was my first interview in foreign company and Neil gave me a lot of extremly valueable advices. I’ve never imagined that recruiter can spend so much time working with candidate. He really cares! Professionals like Neil do a really great job connecting employers with employees all over the world and I’m sure that Neil is one of the best in it. Thank you Neil, you’ve made my dream come true!

Anyone who has tried to build engineering team knows that its no mean feat in this region (APAC). I have worked with numerous recruiters in my journey of attracting talent for high growth companies. Neil & his team has always surprised me with interesting profiles and commitment to fine tune the search as we go along. I count on him as a partner in building great engineering teams because 1.) I don’t like to be wrong in picking right talent for the team 2.) There are very less recruiters like Neil who care to nourish/invest in partnerships.

I have worked with Neil as a candidate and it was a very pleasant experience. He introduced me to Canva and then convinced to move to the other side of the world, helping me during every step of my journey. Neil was very caring and professional, at the same time not putting any pressure on me. As a candidate I would definitely recommend working with Neil, because he is surely the best recruiter I’ve ever met.

In a world where tech recruitment is difficult, and finding trusted, reliable, active and knowledgeable recruiters is even harder, Neil shines above the rest.

He’s one of the few I trust to follow through on commitments and to legitimately seek an outcome that’s beneficial for candidates, employers and himself as a recruiter.

Neil was very supportive during all my process, he was worried on how I was feeling and made me feel comfortable. He doesn’t want to have me hired at any price, He wanted to make sure I was doing the right thing to me. This is what I expect from a professional and responsible recruiter, and definitely Neil is one of those

Neil is hands down my favourite recruiter that I’ve worked with. He’s a shining example of not just how to be an effective, respected recruiter, but also how to do it all ethically and with the highest standard of respect for candidates/companies. Every single candidate he’s offered has been at or far above the bar we’ve set. He manages the process in a way that really shows real care for the candidate. When I was a hiring manager (at Horangi), he was really fun to work with and made me look extremely good because his candidates turned into some of our best engineers. He’s the gold standard in a field where unfortunately I’ve found that too many other recruiters prioritize placement speed over the long term good of the team/candidate. He listened really well to what the team needed and also listen really well to what the candidates needed. When I build teams in the future or even when I’m just making a career decision for myself, I’ll no doubt seek his advice and help

Neil is brilliant! He contacted me telling about a job opportunity in Germany, at first I was not really interested and I had never considered living in Germany before, then Neil started explaining the company’s business model and products, but his explanation was so rich and full of details that he got my attention. Then I decided to give it a try, and Neil was there through the whole process, always in touch with valuable advices, even sharing his own experiences, and so he earned my trust. Now I’m here in Berlin with a great job, I wouldn’t have made it this far without Neil’s support. Thank you, Neil.

Neil’s been a wonderful recruitment partner to Canva. He took the time to really understand our business, technical requirements, and where we set the bar (somewhere up in the stratosphere). He’s tenacious and worked insanely hard to really lock-in exactly what we were looking for — and he delivered. In the early days, where each hire carries substantially more risk, he helped us bring on board some amazing engineers that continue to smash goals year on year. His honest, ethical, and straight-forward communication approach puts him miles ahead of his competitors. I can count on three fingers the number of recruiters partners that I actually rate. Neil is one of them, I highly recommend him, irrespective of whether you’re an up-and-coming startup (like Canva was) or a larger organization looking to raise the bar.

Neil found me on LinkedIn and helped me through the interview process at Airtasker. We talked every step of the way so that I would know what to expect of the next stage and to make me feel comfortable. For someone who is leaving their home country that is very important! Thanks for all the support Neil, I can literally say you changed my life 🙂

Neil is THE best recruiter I’ve ever worked with. He puts all other recruiters to shame. He has an in-depth understanding of technology and often finds candidates that not only fits our tech requirements but also, our company culture. He’s helped me build the MoneySmart Engineering team (from hiring our CTO to our full stack developers). If I had to sum him up in 3 words – Neil is genuine, patient and very hardworking. Thank you Neil, you kick ass!
