I had an excellent experience working with Vanrath. From my very first phone call to inquire about a listed position, through the interview preparation and the onboarding guidance, every step went far beyond what I expected. Jack was outstanding in managing my job search for a senior position last April. Thanks to his support, I secured my current role and couldn't be more grateful. Throughout the process, he provided valuable insight on how to handle the interview with my future employer-particularly recommending the STAR method. His encouragement to use that technique helped me feel confident and well-prepared. The interview itself was challenging, but Jack's practical tips really made a difference. Although we never met face-to-face and only communicated via phone and email, his communication was always clear, professional, and easy to understand. He was very approachable and consistently quick to respond to messages and calls. I would strongly recommend Vanrath to anyone seeking new opportunities. In particular, Jack stood out as knowledgeable, supportive, and efficient right from our first interaction. Within just a week of submitting my CV, I had completed an interview and received a job offer. Michael also played a key role, offering steady guidance from beginning to end-from interview coaching to follow-up conversations-ultimately helping me make the right decision about my new position.
