The Principals
OK, we admit it, we’re not recruiters. In fact, we’re former hiring managers who know firsthand how challenging it can be to find truly good people when supply is short. We’ve dealt with recruiters, waded through unqualified resumes and interviewed some really questionable candidates. We founded SkillsMeridian because we knew there simply had to be a better way for organizations to quickly find and hire really talented people.
