“Ceren was by my side the whole time; and I couldn't have closed on my offer without her. Working with her made a real difference in the role I received and compensation.”

- Peter Khanahmadi, Director, Capability Development & Strategy @ technical assent

"I can't emphasize enough how critical Ceren has been to my career. She guided me through every step of finding my first software engineering job at Amazon, from crafting my resume, to reaching out to recruiters, to preparing for interviews, to deciding between competing offers. I consider myself to be an effective job hunter, but there were still hard decisions to make every step of the way. I would often come to Ceren with what seemed to me like an insoluble dilemma, and leave the meeting with clarity and a plan for action. No matter how strong an engineer you are, you're not a dedicated job-placement specialist. Having Ceren on your team is a great way to make sure you maximize your opportunities."

— Andrew Ash, Software Development Engineer II @ Amazon

“It is fair to say that I would not have my current job were it not for Ceren. I found out about the open position through her, and as as soon as I expressed my interest, we were on the phone discussing what the company was looking for, what I was looking for in my next role, and whether it would be a good fit. Once we decided that it would, Ceren masterfully guided me through the interview process and helped me navigate the tricky situation of weighing a competing offer from an exciting startup, which I was also put in touch with through Clutch Talent.

Ceren is super knowledgeable about the industry and the recruiting process, and clearly cares about the careers of the job seekers she works with. She even followed up with me after I had been in my current position for a couple of months to see how everything was going.

Should I find myself looking for a new position in the future, Ceren will definitely be the first person I call.”

— Bryan Gergen, Software Enigneer @ The New York Times

“Ceren was a fantastic help during my job search process. She helped guide from the resume and application stage, all the way through to the negotiation stage. She was extremely knowledgeable about how to approach each situation, how to talk to recruiters, how to organize my search, how to negotiate offers. In the beginning she helped me figure out what I was looking for in my next role. Her advice helped me tackle the process with confidence and a minimum of stress. Being an alum of Fullstack I thought I would reach out when I started looking for a new role, but I never expected the level of guidance I got from Ceren. Some resumes sent out, or some job leads, perhaps, but not the one-on-one attention to determine what I was looking for, what my strengths are, and how to best present myself.”

— Colin Meret, DevOPs Engineer @ Splash

 

“Ceren has helped me land both of my jobs as a developer. I transitioned into software development a couple years ago she was there for my first rounds of interviews up until negotiation, where she helped me get even more money!  She understood the areas I wanted to focus on coming out of my first job and was instrumental in me landing my second job (where I’m currently at) at an awesome place that is providing me with what I was missing. She’s an excellent person to have in your corner, helping and cheering you on; I’d recommend her to anyone looking to ramp up their career search in a really meaningful and effective way!”

— CHRISTINE LEVERETT, SOFTWARE ENGINEER @ MEDIUM

“Ceren and I met at a recruiting event years before we started working together. I remember her energy, humor, genuine passion for connecting with people, and her ability to crisply articulate the business and technical aspects of the company she was representing. When I was looking for a new opportunity and reconnected with her, she was an incredible advocate for me throughout the hiring process—everything from prepping for interviews to what to expect in the next stage of the process to finalizing details on the eventual offer I was extended. As someone who has now been on both sides of the hiring process both as a candidate and the hiring manager, I can say she is the most talented recruiter I've had the pleasure of working with. Ceren is an expert in all things career and hiring, will keep you abreast with constant and transparent communication, and most importantly, she'll be the strongest advocate for your interests. Ceren is someone I am glad to always have in my corner, and any candidate or company would be lucky to have her as a member of their team.”

— Scott Yim, Sr. Product Manager @ Learnvest

"Ceren has been an incredible resource for me for years. She helped me prepare for my Google interview - and years later, when I was looking for a change, she helped me with every step of the job-finding process. She introduced me to employers, prepped me for interviews, and helped me think through salary negotiation."
