If you are looking at hiring a contractor on a corp-to-corp basis, or employee basis, we can cover the Payroll, General Liability Insurance, Errors and Omissions Insurance, CPP, EI, Workers' Compensation, and even Benefits in some cases. (Life Insurance, Dental, etc)

Testimonials


Hai Hoang

She made sure that she understood our requirements and what we were looking for and brought us great candidates really quickly. She gives you her honest opinion and works with you through the entire process. Jessica goes above and beyond to take care of you and has been a great pleasure to work with.



Shweta Dadhich

Senior Technical Recruiter

Jessica is THE person you need to get placed in the right role!! She is a passionate recruiter who wants to bring a change in this industry! She was the one who placed my husband 3 years ago and he referred me to her right when I was trying to get interviews for a couple of months but could not get through because of the bias we have in the Recruitment industry. She helped me in connecting with some amazing set of people to get the job that I was just looking for. She is the best. You’re in safe hands when it comes to finding yourself the best match.



Shota Zurabashvili

DevOps Manager - LiveSwitch | SimplyOn

When Jessica reached out she was able to represent the role and the company really well so I was truly impressed and hooked. I immediately responded and I’m glad I did. It was a great experience working with her. We soon built an engineering team of 5 rockstars only because Jessica can find talent screened and already a good fit almost out of thin air.



Marilyn Harron

Customer Success Manager - Planworth

Jessica reached out to me with the perfect opportunity. I have been really enjoying my position with my current company. She provided the expertise to know exactly what they wanted and went above and beyond to secure it. She was even pivotal to my negotiation experience. It was a pleasure to work with her.






Alanna Williams

Director, Culture & People Operations - LiveSwitch

Jessica is a combination of passion, talent and execution. From the start of her time at LiveSwitch she has been faced with a lot of challenges and she faces them head-on and tackles them easily! She is resourceful, friendly, tenacious and I love getting to learn from her about the complex world of tech recruiting.

Cadel Jones

Software Developer - Mixo

Jessica was incredible to work with. She kept me up to date and offered lots of helpful advice throughout the entire process. She was invested in my success and helped me land the perfect new opportunity. Having Jessica on my side was a real asset in my job search.

Brendan Kam

Software Developer - Passiv

It was a pleasure working with Jessica.

Jessica is very passionate about what she does. From my time working with Jessica, it was very apparent to me that she puts in a lot of effort and care to get the best outcome for both the job seekers she's trying to recruit and her clients.

As a job seeker, Jessica will be there for you every step of the way. You can be assured that the companies she introduces you to will be a great fit for you. If she introduces you to a position, it's because she believes that you have a good chance of landing the job.

If you're an employer, you can be sure that Jessica will do her best to find the right candidates for you. But more importantly, the support and empathy Jessica gives to the job candidate could be the reason why they accept your offer over a competing offer.

If there was a 2022 Recruiter of the Year award, I would nominate Jessica for the award.


Ryan Christilaw

Senior Developer - Jonah Group

Jessica has been a great person to work with. I have received many messages from recruiters saying they have great opportunities for me, but once I see the job posting, realize that the position does not fit my background or experience level. This was not the case for Jessica. The position she found was actually a great fit for me which shows her attention to detail and the research she put into the process, rather than the usual templated messages I was receiving. Throughout the recruitment process she made every effort to ensure I was comfortable and prepared. Thank you for all your efforts.

James Truong

Senior Technical Analyst - Sunlife

Working with Jessica has been nothing short of awesome. Our working relationship first started over a year ago when I was approached with a great opportunity. While things had not worked out for that particular role, I was amazed with Jessica's drive and tenacity to keep searching for that perfect fit for me. I am now working for a great company in a role that allows me to grow and thrive, and this is all thanks to Jessica's hard work and professionalism. I highly recommend Jessica to anyone as I'm sure she can also help you find your perfect fit!

Emel Demirci

Application Architect - Foresters

Working with Jessica was an amazing experience and also fun at times as I had the opportunity to observe her energy, enthusiasm, and tenacity. I have no doubt she will continue to excel and be successful in any area she puts her mind into. I would highly recommend Jessica as she is a very skilled and smart recruiter.
