I was fortunate to work with Michael when I decided to pursue a new career. I wasn’t really sure what area/focus I should look into, and spoke to a number of recruiters who didn’t understand my needs. Michael listened to my interests, helped uncover what was really important to me, and advised me on how to effectively meet my goals. He introduced EY to me, which has been truly a career and life-changing opportunity.
Michael educated me on the job market’s climate and how to strategically maneuver through the completive sector I found myself in at the time. He coached me on how to successfully interview with different levels of management. I would trust recommending Michael to anyone to know on the search for a new career opportunity. I would definitely welcome the opportunity to work with Michael again when searching for a new role.

Michael is the rarest of the rare: A recruiter who actually gives a darn about the folks he's recruiting. I get spammed on a daily basis by recruiters who throw pots of spaghetti at the wall to see what sticks, but Michael is different.
He actually showed an interest in who I was and where I wanted my career to go. And when he placed me, darn if it wasn't an amazing job and a perfect cultural fit that propelled my career forward. A developer could definitely do way worse than having Michael on their side.

I worked with Michael closely on my last job search. Throughout that time, he's proved to be one of top DevOps recruiters I’ve worked with throughout the whole US. Everything from his technical knowledge to his highly professional attitude made him a pleasure to work with. His follow-up and communication skills are fantastic as is his capability as an executive recruiter.
He invested time to understand my personal needs and was able to match those with the exact of opportunities that I was looking for. I felt he had my best interest in mind and always made sure there was a great fit with potential companies. He will treat your candidates with a level of respect and engagement that will help you get the best talent in the job market. Michael would be a great addition to any recruitment team in need of DevOps Engineers.

Great experience working with Mike seeking a DevOps role. Unlike many other recruiters I've worked with, Mike had a good understanding of DevOps, brought me roles he knew I would be a good fit for, and wasn't pushy if there were any I chose not to pursue. Very communicative and a big help throughout the entire interview process.

I would highly recommend Mike to any job seeker.

Michael is the best recruiter I've worked with yet. When I was looking to move my career in a more exciting direction, I dealt with a number of recruiters who were just playing the numbers game. Michael actually took the time to consider my skills and background when he reached out to me. To this day, the job an culture are a perfect fit. A match like this isn't make by playing the numbers game, it's made with attention to detail and expertise.
He was able to answer so many of my questions that I was able to confidently move forward with that job opportunity. When the interview approached he gave me really great information that allowed me to show the right, best examples of my work and take conversations I subsequently had to the next level. To say that Michael is an excellent recruiter would be an understatement.

Michael was a pleasure to work with. His experience and knowledge of the Digital job market made him a valuable resource during the interview process. With his help I felt prepared and confident going into interviews, and his clear and timely communication made me fee like I was in the loop the whole time. I would not hesitate to work with him again.

It is rare to find a recruiting partner like Michael Race, that so keenly understands your precise technical and business requirements, as well as required candidate soft skills. It is even more rare that it resulted in placing two exceptional engineers with me, a year apart, on the first try. Both candidates were hired before the left my office on their first interview. Once is luck, but twice? There's a science.
Both hires continue to meet and exceed my expectations of them to this day.
It is very clear that Michael Race is has a firm grasp of the DevOps domain. I cannot recommend him enough as a placement partner to produce high quality candidates through a thoughtful process focused accomplishing client goals. Michael has earned his place on my extremely short list of recruiting partners to call when I need arises.
Trust me, there aren't many out there like him. He is one of the best.
