Response to owner – {It is not true that I am working with you or anyone from TalentZok on another position. } They had a job posted, reached out to me to apply, I did, interviewed, and then was told that the client is choosing only someone internal because the job they were hiring for changed and is no longer needed; they are going in a different direction. However, I saw the same job I interviewed for and did not get, reposted. If I was not chosen for the job, just say that instead of lying and trying to dress it up. I can handle it and would respect you more for your honesty and transparency. I emailed the recruiter inquiring if the newly posted job was the same as I had interviewed for, and of course I did not receive a response, nor did I expect one. It’s interesting how they do business.

TalentZok has perfectly matched me up with a great employer. I couldn’t be more happy to start my new job! But this couldn’t have been possible without Zayne and Yazmin.
Zayne is amazing! Very professional, kind, and caring. She took the time to know what would be a great fit for me and the employer.
I highly recommend TalentZok and their team. (Yazmin & Zayne)

Jess found me for a position that I’d never even considered that I’d love, and I couldn’t be happier in it! My story is a bit bizarre for just how much Jess changed my life. I love where I work, the people I work with, and the costumers I have the privilege of delivering to. I have no idea what pulled her to my resume, and I’m beyond grateful for it. Thank you Jess and everyone at TalentZok. You’re amazing!
