Similar to another reviewer, I had a person at Clinlab Staffing attempt to look me up on Whitepages and they called my parent's number. I really did not appreciate this. I'm not sure if this is a regular move at Clinlab Staffing, but I would MUCH rather be emailed or messaged on LinkedIn/Indeed than be cold-called. It is a bit of an invasion of privacy and creepy.

Sean was so attentive and professional. I have found the position of my dreams because of his dedication. I was able to share my concerns and goals which he then relayed/ coordinated with my current position. He made the on boarding process so smooth, and continued to follow up with me well within my 1st week of my new position to ensure everything he promised was correct. I will definitely recommend him to any research associate of any experience level.

Clinlab Staffing is an absolute great recruiting firm. I have worked with Jacob de Haas over the last few weeks in hopes of finding a new role. Jacob has been wonderful as he is always updating me on where I am in the process and preparing me for the interviews that will take place. He is very professional and compassionate with his clients. With the help of Jacob I am proud to say that I have landed my new role. Without Jacob and the rest of the Clinlab staffing team I honestly believe I would not have landed such a great new role. I greatly for him and everyone at Clinlab. Please contact them

Lindsey McCarthy worked so effortlessly, tirelessly, and with such understanding of the industry that youd be forgiven for thinking it was some sort of magic or serendipity that lands you that job. Its rare to meet someone who youve just met that fights so hard for you, as if she was trying to get the position for herself. But thats how it feels. Not only can you tell that Lindsey is really hustling behind the scenes, but you can also tell that she cares whether or not you get it. Communication was fantastic with her. Lindsey would never annoy you with too many calls, but she didnt

To quote one of the reviews on here The recruiters from this agency love to connect on LinkedIn but can't be bothered to call, respond to messages, or emails. So much for having an open dialog, figuring out whats available, determining a fit and adapting a resume... ClinLab has an army of fresh graduate robots.. Had a female recruiter creepily reach out to me on ALL of my social media accounts, just to take my resume and never utter another word. I get these kids work on commission and they couldnt care less about ghosting, but its just very unprofessional to make such an effort (a
