The team at Blue Signal uses an incredible process to deliver outstanding results. The excellent people they’ve helped us recruit have created tens of millions in enterprise value for our organization. I’m always on the lookout for an extremely rare opportunity to create an actual competitive advantage.

CEO & Founder

Global Telecommunications Provider

Blue Signal’s drive to find the right candidate/client fit is awesome. We made great hires and they stayed actively engaged throughout the onboarding process and beyond.

Director of Networking

We needed a top candidate for a highly confidential role. Blue Signal's outstanding privacy policy helped us to meet qualified candidates without compromising our commitment to privacy.

VP of Sales

We brought Blue Signal to fill a job that had been sitting open for a year. Blue Signal's professional and diligent team was able to fill the position quickly with a perfect candidate.

Engineering Manager

Blue Signal genuinely cares about matching the needs of both candidates and clients. I highly recommend partnering with the team at Blue Signal for your hiring needs.

HR Director

Emerging Technology Firm

Blue Signal exceeded my every expectation in a search team. I will not introduce them to competitors — I’m hoping they focus on new markets and remain my secret weapon for unicorn talent.

GM Director

Industrial Technology Firm


Blue Signal understood our hiring needs extraordinarily well. Each candidate forwarded to date has been one worthy of strong consideration. Remarkable, considering I’ve spoken to some 40 to 50 Blue Signal candidates by now. Clearly, significant vetting is done up-front by Blue Signal. In the past, via other providers, I’ve been used to a “hit rate” - of below 50% for truly qualified, considerable candidates. With Blue Signal I have undeniably spent more time interviewing real candidates and less time overall in the hiring process since there’ve been no ‘wasted’ interviews – no “why am I talking to this person?”
