"Ryen is one of those rare individuals that understands and balances the speed and agility of recruiting with the incredible importance of great candidate fit. People build our software companies and Ryen nurtures, develops and finds incredible talent and opportunities. Ryen has placed over 50 successful individuals in my ecosystem in a short period of time.”
– Mike, Ex-President – Salsify, Ex-Chief Customer Officer – Salesforce
“Aleysian has partnered with Ryen & the Riverside team on multiple open roles. Ryen has the ability to understand and prioritize what is most important to your organization, communicate it outwardly and ensure both candidate and client are in lock step throughout the entirety of the hiring process. We cannot thank Ryen and Riverside enough for all the hard work and everything they have done for Aleysian."
– Matt, Head of Growth – Aleysian
“I first partnered with Ryen when I was building out a new CSM team and needed to fill a large number of more senior roles with quality candidates as quickly as possible. Ryen immediately brought us strong talent from a variety of backgrounds across our industry. We filled a large number of roles in record time, in large part due to leveraging his firm. I have continued to work with Ryen since then, knowing that each time I work with him his communication is strong, he acts quickly and he always brings in top talent. I highly recommend Ryen for any fast growing team.”
- Ashley, Chief Customer Officer – Salsify
“Ryen was instrumental for us in sourcing multiple key team members, as we increased our US headcount in line with our
ambitious growth plans.
His depth of understanding of the market, combined with the speed and effectiveness with which he operates, quickly set him apart from the other recruitment services we have utilized in North America for GTM positions.
I would recommend Ryen very highly to anyone looking to expand their team with specific profiles.”
- Oliver, VP of Sales, Happeo
“Simon and his team at Riverside Staffing have been fantastic to work with. In an extremely tight job market where filling technical roles is getting harder and harder, Simon has consistently gone above and beyond to source candidates that are great fits for whatever role we throw at him (including data scientists, AI experts in small subfields, application developers, lead backend engineers, and more).Any hiring manager that has worked with external recruiters before knows that there are many firms out there that will do a haphazard search/filter based on the job description and flood you with mediocre candidates. That has never been the case with Simon or Riverside Staffing—they put in a lot of attention to detail and constantly bring us candidates with the exact set of experience or skill sets we are looking for while still staying flexible and adapting the search as it changes over time.There have been many instances where other recruiters have let us down or run out of quality candidates, but Simon and his team somehow always manage to provide a steady stream of great candidates until the role is filled.”
