Our Happy Clients

We have so much gratitude for what we create, together.

My friend, Alana Fulvio, is America’s hiring and talent acquisition strategist and advisor at the top level. I know in my world, we’re always trying to create what we call our dream team. If you need the right dream team inside your company, you might need some help because it's not easy. Alana is an amazing resource out in the market place for small to medium-sized companies because she started in big companies and grew their hiring processes so now she brings this talent to the table. I'm going to recommend you check out Alana Fulvio and Pendulum so you can create the best dream team inside your company. She will actually come in and train your hiring teams with workshops or whatever is needed to take them to a transformative level to get the right talent inside your company.

Alana recently hosted a weekend-long workshop with our company to help kickstart our recruiting and hiring efforts. What was initially billed as a three-day event do more-clearly define our practices around finding and bringing new talent on board ended up being so much more. Alana's approach is not only informative and enlightening on the recruiting and hiring fronts, but perhaps even more importantly, resulted in our organization challenging itself to really define who we are, who we want to be, and as a result, who we are looking for. Both during the workshop itself and before/after, Alana was 100% dedicated to making the entire team primed for success. Her invaluable feedback, genuine approach, and fierce drive to share her wisdom has made every single employee at our company much-better off across the board. Not only did our group grow its ability to source talent, but also, came to a better understanding of what our company is striving to achieve. Our workshop and experiences with Alana will no doubt go down in history as one of the more important moments we have had as an organization.

Alana is one of the best recruiters I've had the pleasure of working with. She is a great partner to engineering, and digs deep to understand the needs of our specific roles. She is consistently proactive and is able to fulfill a deep pipeline to deliver (and often times over deliver) on our staffing needs.

I had the fortune to work with Alana at GoPro, where she recruited both for Engineering and IT. Both in Hyper ramp mode. We in IT hired some 30 people in less than a year, which would not have been possible without the daily dedication to Alignment, Quality and Results that Alana brought to our Partnership. She is a Star that stands out among Star's and I would be most delighted to work with her again.

Alana and I worked together @ Medallia for about a year or so and her impact on the company was, simply put, transformative. We are at the heart of Silicon Valley. Recruiting is tough around here even for big mammoth companies like Facebook, Google, Netflix, etc. Alana helped us first figure out who we are to only then figure out who we were looking for. I'd love for our paths to cross again, I cannot recommend her more!
Juan Pablo DellarroquelleSVP of Engineering • Medallia and Silicon Valley Innovator
Alana is one of the best senior technical recruiters I have known. Her ability to spot talented individuals and drive the recruiting process is greatly appreciated. She would call me up 24/7 to ensure that next steps were handled in a timely fashion. Very smart, very diligent.

I love working with Alana. Closing candidates just gets easier when Alana is driving the process Her drive, passion and professionalism really impress me.

Alana is remarkable at what she does! We had her come into our organization to help us hire and retain better employees. We got a lot more than we asked for. She is regimented in her process yet assimilates quickly to the organization: he team felt immediately comfortable with her which allowed for immediate learning. The first day, we worked as a team on the core foundation of Recruiting: our values and vision, what we are truly looking for in regards to the position and how to identify what the candidates "Drivers" are so that we can make the best hire possible. We have been in business for 19 years and I think we forgot some of the values we possess along the way. This was an eye opening session! She had the team excited and working together to rejuvenate the core values and vision that we all strive for on a daily basis for our customer. This is where we developed the “Formula” that solidified how to identify what drives others, the candidates that are coming in, in order for our company to be able to identify whether or not we can offer new candidates a long term opportunity. Also, the team was unified based off of the identification of must-have's and nice to have's in regards to what is truly needed so that hiring teams are clear from day one rather than being detached throughout the process which could only equal not hiring the right people. Day two, she had us work on how we were to restructure our hiring procedures. During this process, I really wondered why someone would want to work at our organization. After she worked with us to discover and create the best process for us, it made sense as to why someone would choose us over our competitors. Our new process was inviting and organized where applicants feel comfortable throughout the process. This allows us to find those perfect employees for our organization. Day three, was interesting. She knew our individual personalities from only working with us for only a couple of days. She worked individually with us on our weaknesses and helped us hoan in on them so as to exploit our individual strengthens to help us build a stronger team and to build on our values and vision. Also during this day, she had a unique process that I had never heard of before whereas live candidates were brought in in order to integrate and fully grasp the learnings of day one and day two. This I was not excepting this at all. The foundation of our recruiting function was altered and made to become unified and strong for the prosperity of current and future employees as well as the company as a whole. Thank You Alana!
Rich FrakesGeneral Manager • Desert Cab Company
My first manager once said "I'd rather tame a wild stallion than kick a dead horse." I love working with Alana, because she's a stallion. She is quick to capture the essential needs of a position and develop a sourcing strategy. She has a great nose for talent and is always on top of the next play, proactively driving hiring managers. She's quite skilled at closing candidates by understanding their needs and expanding their focus beyond title and compensation to consider how the opportunity aligns with their dreams and brings transformative growth, … and then presenting the offer when the candidate is ready to accept. In short, she's an A+ recruiter.

Alana is a seasoned Silicon Valley recruiter turned global Talent and People Strategist and Advisor. She partners to ensure leaders and their companies have everything they need to hire high-performing people and empower cultures of happy, revenue-driving employees. At a strategic level she facilitates the right conversations to build organizational-wide unity and excitement around Talent Acquisition and has built workshops and frameworks that are plug-and-play, making it easy for any small to medium-sized company to invest in and integrate quickly. She sees things far deeper and quicker than most in her industry, and has a values-based sixth sense for positive change.
Tyler WalsethSenior Product Design Manager, Insights & Actions • NerdWallet
Alana recruited engineers and managers for my org at Medallia. She was able to source great candidates, to drive them through the process and to help close them despite an extremely aggressive hiring plan and a very difficult recruiting environment. She partners well with engineering leaders to understand their needs and to align the interview process to those needs. She also develops trust with prospective candidates, helping to close them at a high rate. Lastly, Alana is a pleasure to work with as an engineering leader.
Naggi AsmarVice President of Development • Medallia
At GoPro Alana was my recruiter for Technical Project Management. Alana was extremely effective in understanding my position needs, actively searching and engaging with qualified passive candidates, and vetting them before sending them my way. She was always spot on in finding both technical and cultural fits for my open positions. In addition she was very strong in closing candidates in a very competitive environment. And just as important, Alana was always a pleasure to work with.
