    Reena reached out to me about a Solutions Consultant position. Throughout my whole interview process, I worked with Reena mostly and Caitlin towards the end. I know they are teammates so I’m sure there was a lot of collaboration going on in the background as well! Working with Reena, to get the position that I now have, was like working with your best gal pal honestly. Reena would give me tips on confidence and have little touch-base pep talks with me. We would also catch up after the interviews to sort of break down what happened, how I felt, and what to do next. Reena was always present anytime I needed her. Always a quick text message or phone call away. Overall, I just felt very supported and that definitely helped with each interview I had. I have already referred two amazing candidates and I hope to continue collaborating with Reena more in the future to bring on more amazing people.

    I was connected with Reena through a friend as a referral for a new job. This was my first time working with a recruiter and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Reena walked me step-by-step me through the entire process from helping me to prepare for interviews, to providing support and confidence boostIng phone calls. I have now accepted a dream job at the top company in my industry. I would HIGHLY recommend working with Reena for anyone looking to work with a recruiter.

    I’ll admit first and foremost that I haven’t had a great history of working with recruiters — and so my gut feeling when I received a LinkedIn message from someone at Hobson was to ignore that message. However, I went against my guy, and here we are. On Dec 2, 2020, I received a “spam-like” personal message on LinkedIn from a Partner and Associate Manager at Hobson Associates, alerting me to a prospective job in a challenging role on the front range of Colorado. To clarify and emphasize that again — I didn’t reach out to this recruiter, rather HE reached out to me. I couldn’t ignore the fact that I was a little bit intrigued, and so I replied and began a dialogue with this Partner and Associate Manager — which entailed sending my resume and having a brief phone conversation on Dec 4. I heard nothing for a while, and reached out to said individual yet again on Dec 14. He replied that I had indeed been presented to the prospective employer, and that he was working on securing a phone interview later that same week. I never heard anything ever again — and at that point I didn’t even bother to follow-up any further. I lost interest and frankly I lost faith, and I likely should have known better from that initial “spam-like” message I received. It’s situations like this that really make interactions with recruiters absolutely baffling! I understand that they’re working for (and paid by) the prospective employer — and not the prospective employee — but I can’t wrap my head around how they think it is even remotely professional to just drop off the radar they way they do, when they’re seemingly no longer interested in a recruitee. It should be noted that the employee reviews for Hobson Associates on Indeed and Glassdoor are not exactly promising either.
