“Candor is like an extension of our own team. They consistently source extremely high quality candidates and communicate what we do to candidates as though they are in-house. Any company is lucky to work with them."

Austin Diamond
CEO at Universal

"The candidates from Candor have been great and I wouldn’t have been able to find this caliber of talent on my own. They’ve allowed us to focus our time on closing sales and pushing the business forward, without sacrificing on building our team."

Jordan Shamir
CEO at Yofi

“Working with Candor made our hiring process easy and took the most time intensive stuff about recruiting off my plate. We ended up closing a senior engineer two weeks after I drafted the JD. It moved way faster than if I was owning the process and Iʼm super stoked about the hires we made."

John Donner
CTO  at Park
