As a young professional, I did not know how much the hiring process had changed. Fortunately, I was able to partner with a recruiting firm that was able to guide me, mentor me, and support me even after the hiring process. To anyone looking to be parred with the right job for your skills, this is the place to go.

During a most unsettling period in my life and the world, BLC Recruiting played a pivotal role in helping me secure gainful employment in the middle of the pandemic. Linsdale and his team provided interview tips and coaching that continued even after securing the position. Linsdale and the BLC Recruiting team remained interested in my success and would show that by following up with check-ins on how I was functioning in my new role. I would highly recommend BLC Recruiting for anyone who is at the point in their life where they are either on the hunt for a new job or are planning to make a career change.

Integrity is the first thought that comes to mind when I reflect on Linsdale McKenzie and the BLC Team. I have been in talent acquisition for over 40 years. I have hired thousands of professionals and dealt with my share of Executive agencies. I have never had the kind of trust, respect, and praise that I have for BLC. I have worked with BLC for close to 15 years, and never once have I questioned their thoroughness when searching for professionals for my company. They are exceptional at searching for the hard to find quality candidates that help us grow our very successful restaurant company. They make us look good. Linsdale and BLC are the professionals you need to fill your open positions with quality. BLC candidates are well prepared for the hiring journey and are usually the best candidate presented. You can’t go wrong working with BLC.
