"I have known the principals at First Round for over a decade. They have helped guide me throughout my career and are experts at all aspects of career development. I have yet to meet a group of individuals with the market knowledge they possess."

"I have always been serious about my career and felt I had a great background. When I was laid off in January, I was surprised how difficult it was to find decent work. First Round showed me a completely new approach and within weeks I secured four quality interviews and received two offers. Their unique approach made all the difference in the world."

"For the past twelve years I have worked with First Round as both a hiring manager and a job seeker. In my opinion they are the best at what they do and understand both technology and career development. I feel I have a distinct advantage with them as a resource."

"With over 15 years experience selling technology solutions, I considered myself an expert in my field. I recently was laid off and realized I was not an expert at finding a job. First Round put together a complete game plan that helped me uncover a significant number of quality opportunities. They also helped coach me through the interview process and negotiate a very solid compensation package."

"Using what I thought was the "right way" to find a job; I secured two interviews in three months after being laid off. After working with First Round, I applied their techniques and within two weeks landed three quality interviews and two job offers. I was amazed at how effective their strategy was."

"After being laid off from my position as a VP of Sales for a startup software company, I tapped into my network, posted on job boards and consulted with a few “experts.” After months of frustration I was looking for a new approach. I was referred to First Round and began learning a new approach. Within weeks I was finding solid new opportunities. They also helped me throughout both the interview and negotiation process and ended up helping me negotiate an amazing offer with a very well-funded startup. They really are experts at what they do."

"I read books, followed the advice of online experts, networked, hit the job boards and worked hard at finding a job. I was very disappointed with my results. First Round taught me a different approach and brought structure to the process. I learned exactly what I needed to do and the results were outstanding."

"I have worked with First Round since the late 90’s. They are very knowledgeable about both the job market and the technology space. I would highly recommend their services to anyone looking to gain a market advantage as they build their careers."

"First Round did an amazing job helping me as I interviewed for a higher level position within my current company. They gave me the guidance I needed to land this role. Their straight forward approach was easy to understand and I would highly recommend their services to anyone in career transition."

"I have worked with First Round for over a decade. I would consider them subject matter experts. They taught me how to find exciting startups, negotiate compensation packages and how certain career moves could affect my future. Great group of people to work with."
