"Laurel is exceptional. Her ability to identify and engage top talent, articulate a compelling vision, and quickly build trusted relationships was essential in building and scaling Capsule's team." — Eric, Founder & CEO
"Over the past few years, I've worked with a dozen or so recruiters and talent firms. Laurel is by far and away the best. No one else has such strong savvy when it comes to candidates and assessing their (oftentimes hidden) strengths and weaknesses. No one is as responsive and easy to work with. No one has taken more time to understand our business, the goals we've set for it, and how they can help. There's a Warren Buffett testimonial about his investment banker, where he says, 'He understands Berkshire far better than any investment banker with whom we have talked and – it hurts me to say this – earns his fee.' Laurel is a true partner to Recurrency, more so than any recruiter or recruiting firm I've worked with, and – unlike most! — she earns her fee." — Sam, Founder & CEO
“Laurel is the best recruiting partner I've worked with. She does much more than recruiting. Her process, rigor, taste, and commitment to exceptional results make it possible to attract and close top talent that would not be possible with another firm. Laurel fundamentally changed our company, its trajectory, and our approach to talent across the business. She provides a masterclass in end to end executive recruiting that will make every Founder and CEO better at their job. If you can close her on taking your role, you'll be very happy with the outcome.” — Andrew, CEO
"We are so grateful to Laurel — her network of incredibly talented humans matched with her ability to understand our specific needs, is nothing short of magic. We are an intentionally small firm, and were looking to make our first senior, client-facing hire. This was not a numbers game for us, we were not looking to hire multiple people over the course of months — this was one role, one person who had to be special and understand not only our client work, but the ethos and building blocks of our own business. We had roughly 50 people apply for the role through a variety of referral channels. When I spoke with Laurel, it was clear that she understood the ethos and building blocks of our business. She told me she had the perfect person, which many people had said along the way, but something about Laurel's confidence and understanding of what we were building left me feeling confident too. She did know exactly who we were looking for and we hired her last week!" — Joanna, Founder
"Laurel is a truly exceptional recruiting partner. Her approach on recruiting is a true collaboration and unlike any other recruiter I've experienced. I've been impressed by her ability to line up exceptional talent, iterate with me as we— together— determine the right profile of candidates through the process, and most importantly, land the best people for highly critical roles across the business." — Mansi, President
"My experience being recruited by Laurel and joining Capsule is by far the best experience that I have had as a candidate. When Laurel contacted me, it was clear from the start that she was well-researched on the position, my background, and could efficiently and effectively find a fit for both Capsule and the candidate. At a time when I was receiving countless contacts from recruiters that seemed to be taking a scattershot approach, it was refreshing to be contacted in a more thoughtful, targeted, and professional way. The role turned out to be a great fit for me. As a hiring manager, I also had the opportunity to work alongside Laurel to fill several key leadership roles on my team. Again, she was an outstanding partner and helped me build the strongest overall team I have ever worked with." — Bryan, Head of Operations
“Working with Laurel was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The process was transparent, efficient, and thoughtfully managed, with Laurel demonstrating outstanding communication and care in finding the right fit for both sides.” — Matt, Head of Finance
"I first met Laurel early in her tenure at Capsule and quickly recognized her talent. Her ability to work autonomously with Founders and senior leadership teams, understanding their needs and consistently exceeding expectations, sets her apart. Over time, I've seen Laurel evolve into an exceptional leader adept in talent, communications, and operations. She is invaluable, which makes her founding her own venture a natural progression." — Rebecca, Partner
"I’ve known Laurel for over 7 years. She’s very sharp, resourceful, and has been a needle mover in every organization she’s been in. She’s incredibly well networked within the technology scene from Silicon Valley to New York. I place a lot of trust in her judgment around sourcing/vetting talent given her unique position of having both experience in multiple senior operator roles at the growth stage and a successful track record in executive search.” — Charles, Investor
