Cindy has consistently proven to be a reliable and highly capable recruiting partner. She demonstrates a great understanding of our organization, our work, and our roles.

Cindy conducts herself with professionalism and always displays a genuine passion for her work. Throughout our business relationship, she’s delivered excellent candidates. Her proactive approaches and knowledge of the recruiting landscape help guide our decision-making. Based on our experiences, I am delighted to provide my recommendation. Cindy is a trusted, exceptional recruiting partner.

Human Resources Director, Economic Empowerment and Social Justice Organization

What a pleasure to work with Barbara and Cindy in resolving our post-pandemic staffing needs. After unsuccessful attempts to recruit staff for our schools using online resources left us frustrated and in despair, we were referred to Career Blazers by a mutual business contact.

A huge difference-maker in my opinion was that they came to meet with us face-to-face. I believe this personal touch afforded them an intimate feel for our organization and how best to present us as prospective employer to potential candidates. Less than a month later, we were provided with four candidates who were not only available but interested in working for us. I can’t sway enough about the professional level of personalized service we received. Based on these immediate and positive results, I cannot hesitate to say, they are the best recruiters I have ever dealt with.
