Maven recruiters know that candid dialogue is the most effective way to build confidence and lasting relationships when making a hire or accepting a job. We believe the greatest sign of respect is telling people the truth and not wasting their time. Discovering the imperceptible creates lasting relationships with candidates and companies.
Maven really lightened my load by only presenting me with great candidates so that I didn't have to slog through tons of resumes myself. They also did an amazing job telling each candidate's story - that really helped me to differentiate them and prioritize what was truly most important to the role.

We get the real skinny by working directly with the people making the hiring decisions. Connecting with senior management enables us to truly understand the company's philosophy and culture and the idiosyncrasies of the search - all of the important but intangible elements that can't be found in a job description.
As partners, we believe in a human and rigorous approach to recruiting. We're not just looking at the industry from the outside in; we have a true understanding of what it takes to land your elusive A-list candidate. There's no algorithm for that. Does your team need a quick fill for an immediate need?
Maven Recruiting Group is a recruiting firm that specializes in placing Executive Assistants, Administrative, Operations and Human Resources professionals to the most prominent executives and companies. A resource for both temporary and permanent hiring needs, we provide talent and staff augmentation services to Fortune 500 companies, Venture Capital firms and growing tech startups in San Francisco, Silicon Valley and Silicon Beach.
Our goal at Maven is to never forget we're in the business of recruiting and placing people. Actual people. Candidates are more than resumes and companies are more than quarterly earnings. We treat people as people. We're honest with them. We meet them over coffee instead of over email. We celebrate what makes each person and company unique, instead of directing them to a webpage.
Our belief in a human and rigorous approach to recruiting applies not only to our work as recruiters, but to how we engage with and serve our broader community.

I am amazed by the relentless effort that Nerissa put into finding the perfect match for me. I had never worked with a recruiter like her before. She was very optimistic, positive, and as mentioned - RELENTLESS.
She quickly lined up interviews for me that fit my desired field, location, and company culture. After each interview, she provided feedback and even coached me over the phone to sharpen my interview skills.
Nerissa was always positive, always empathetic, and always cheering me on. When she found the absolute perfect lead for me, she was very excited for me and spent extra time coaching

I worked with Shirin at Maven Recruiting and I cannot speak highly enough of my experience with her. After deciding to make a career industry switch, I was approaching 1.5 years of no luck applying for position after position. I met with Shirin in February to review my career goals, background, and ideal companies. By March I was starting my new assignment in HR. Don’t get me wrong, this is not magic, you need to put in the effort, but if you do, Shirin and the Maven team will guide you along the way and make your strengths shine for prospective employers. It is now June and I was recently hired

The first time I went through Maven was in 2016. Four years later, I'm looking again and I can say with confidence that they're the only agency I'll work with for all my admin role opportunities. They're a real genuine and get-it-done group of professionals who go the extra mile, making made me feel accepted and seen in my job hunt. :)

Working with Maven recruiting was the best decision I made when looking for a new position. I really enjoyed the one-on-one in person interview and that they met me half way in Palo Alto rather than me making the trip all the way to San Francisco from Milpitas. My recruiter Christine was awesome and very helpful throughout my whole interviewing process. She was extremely informative and detailed in preparing me for each interview. Everything she did for me paid off and I am now at an amazing company that I would have never thought to have looked into to work for or even known they were hiring.

Let me start by saying Thank You Amber!
I am incredibly thankful for her phenomenal work. Amber has partnered me with an extraordinary employer that I share a vision with. A connection with a company for a position that matched my experience and skill set. I genuinely believe her ability to recognize that opportunity, her infectious enthusiasm, and strong sense of urgency made a real and successful difference.
I’ve had experiences with other staffing agencies before, and many are outdated and even mediocre with their quest to get you hired. Often, overlooking great possibilities to just get

Maven Recruiting group was the best ever! My personal recruiter was Amber and she would call me as soon as you she would get updates and not forget about me. Totally was never ignored or neglected. I actually had a great job at Slack referred by her that lasted longer than expected. She would call and check in and if she didnt answer when i called, she got back to me pretty much instantly. The recruiting process was easy but professional and when i needed help with online; Compas; or other questions, their customer service representatives, other recruiters or tech support; whoever it was, would

They say the best things come when you least expect it. In this case, meeting the team at Maven was one of the best experience I've had when working with a recruiting agency. Maven has a strong network of clients ensuring that the employers they put you in front of are well worth your time. I've worked with both Steffanie and Kate and had a positive experience with each of them individually. I received tips and professional advice at every stage of the process. In one specific role, I felt that Kate genuinely was listening to what I was looking for in a role but also encouraged me to try roles

Having been a former recruiter myself that worked in agency recruiting for more than 4 years, I am very impressed with Maven, after being in my previous role for 8 years, I was really particular about sending my resume to ' too many ' recruiters to avoid my name being too casually spread out in the market. I contacted a selected handful of recruiters, and Maven was unbelievable from start to finish, they always checked in periodically particularly my point of contact and recruiter Hayley Morrison who was so delightful to work with, and never pushed me or judged me based on my preferences, and I
