I've known Kimberly for over 8 years and in that time she has consistently delivered top talent whenever I've been in need of either full-time or contract employees. Kimberly thoughtfully takes the time to understand not only the role and responsibilities of the job I'm looking to fill but the general business context and organizational needs overall. She also took the time to get to know me, how I work, and how I communicate which meant that she only presented candidates that she thought would be a great (not just good) fit for my team. Many other recruiters skip these steps which is why I always call Kimberly first. In fact, I don't think I've ever had to pull in another recruiter when Kimberly's on the job. I highly recommend her to everyone I work with to assist with their recruiting needs. She's simply the best.

Kimberly should have been a Mountie: She "always gets her man." For Kimberly, this means finding staffing opportunities and placing exactly the right person for the job, or identifying training opportunities and making them happen. I've learned that flying to Los Angeles to speak with one of her clients leads routinely to training engagements. I'm not sure how she makes this routine, but it's impressive! I'm also not sure how Kimberly manages to be an aggressive, high-energy, goal-oriented leader while remaining so personable. That's a tough balancing act, but she pulls it off gracefully.

I have known Kimberly Yang for four years now. We both started at Kforce in late 2005, and since then I have watched her grow a small prospect account into one of Kforce's most important clients, whilst also hiring and growing a team of producers around her. As a salesperson Kimberly displays an incredible level of focus; she is consistently in front of her clients, and she leaves than in no doubt that she will be an asset to them, and that they can rely on her to help them run their businesses and deliver their projects. She also manages process incredibly tightly; her clients understand exactly what she will deliver and when - this creates a win for the client as well as a win for Kforce. Kimberly has also proven herself to be an excellent leader; I reported to her for most of 2008, and she is still the first person I call when I want to bounce ideas off someone. She is a relentless champion for her team, and I know first hand that she inspires loyalty in those who work with her. She also understands how our business should be executed the right way, and the moral and ethical standards she holds herself and her team too are second to none. Finally, I consider her a true friend, and I hope I can keep working with her for a long time to come.

Kimberly is one of the best recruiters with whom I have ever worked. She's filled both contractor and direct hire positions for me across Marketing and Technology. She focuses not just on finding the skills needed for the position but in finding the best personality and cultural fit for the org. She's thoughtful, diligent and a fantastic partner and an absolute pleasure to work with!

Kimberly is immensely talented and collaborative. She has brought amazing resources into my organization by right placing the talents. What separates her from other recruiters I have used is " She has a high-energy and unrelenting pursuit and she respects and understands the cost of time wasted, by understanding our needs and proactively working on them before it is presented" which is critical to me. She is a professional and delivers the business requirements to the corporate client. She is a consummate workforce consultant, I would always go to her first should there be any need for talent in my organization.

Rarely do you come across a recruiter who is talented at both big picture ideas and executing the small details — Kimberly Yang is that person. Kimberly goes the extra mile to build actual relationships with her clients. She knows how to put herself in someone’s shoes to better understand and connect with them and really digs into the hiring managers’ needs to understand candidate requirements. She also takes the time to get to know her candidates’ strengths and weaknesses and is always ready to discuss both in a refreshingly open and honest way - bridging the gap between what services external recruiters provide and the close relationship typically only reserved for on-staff recruiting departments. Kimberly would be a great fit for any company looking for a recruiting partner that can ensure they are getting access to top talent - I know personally that I can't wait to work with her again.
