See what our clients say about our successes

I've had only great experiences working with Redfish. Our requirements were/are pretty particular, and Leah sorted them out and only ever reached out with candidates who were a good match. And when we start to move along with a candidate, her response times were awesome. In one case we were able to close a candidate who's been great for us thanks to her willingness to text back and forth quickly. She's been a great partner, and I'd look to work with her wherever I go.

Engineering Manager

We’ve partnered with Leah and Redfish for our hiring needs. Leah and her team helped us refine our requirements and successfully found talent in a short amount of time. In addition Leah and her team worked with us every step of the way. At no point did we feel like we were on our own. Instead it felt like I had a large HR/Recruiting Team by my side. It was reassuring to be able to pick up the phone and get any questions answered quickly and correctly. I am in awe of how fast we were able to get our position filled and I am happy to say this individual is a perfect fit into our corporate culture and is a real sales hunter!

My experience of working with Redfish and Leah was exceptional. From initial contact until she successfully placed me into my current role at Incode, she consistently supported me during my interview process. She went above and beyond to ensure I was prepared for interviews. Highly recommended.
