EdgeLink Review

EdgeLink has a modern-looking website. They make it easy to find out where you need to go as a job seeker. They do have a job search but don’t have a ton of jobs listed. I think with this company you will need to sign up to really take advantage of what they have to offer.

EdgeLink Testimonials

“Shannon is amazing. She cares, she listens, and pays attention to the needs of both sides. She follows up quickly. I found her to be very pleasant to work with. Also, she has long lasting relation with her client companies, placing new hires regularly, that are still working there, which talks a lot about her great customer service skills.” – Review from GreatRecruiters

Hi was transparent with the status of the entire search process and set my expectations as to how he will present me to the company. During the entire conversation he made me feel relaxed which led to a comfortable conversation.” – Review from GreatRecruiters
