Alana speaks with a passion and depth of knowledge that puts technical candidates at ease that they're speaking to someone who truly understands their needs. She spoke to me at length about the benefits of working in Silicon Valley, but the conversation remained wholly objective and I never felt like she was trying to sell me on anything. Once I accepted the offer she negotiated for me, she continued to remain in touch in order to assist me in finding living arrangements in the Bay Area. I look forward to working with Alana again in the future.

Nancy CommonsEngineer Leader • Rearden CommerceAlana was crucial in eliminating a potentially disastrous bottleneck during our recruiting drive for one of my operations teams. She personally stepped in and worked with the hiring manager and me to gain clear insight into the specific job attributes that were most critical. Alana then presented a number of high quality candidates from whom we ultimately made an offer. She attained that fine balance of being assertive and persistant without stepping on toes, and turned a stagnant situation into a success story! Alana's direct style, professional attitude, and personal touch made working with her a pleasure. I hope our professional paths cross again soon!

Keith DaleTechnology Executive • LinkedinAlana is very detail oriented, highly dedicated and is a very driven professional. She has a great attitude and exceptional interpersonal skills, which serve to make her a very personable direct contact and an outstanding company representative to prospective candidates, as well as an effective manager. She is well respected by those who have had the opportunity to work with her, and speaking as a candidate that she recruited, she was fantastic during my recruitment process, and I'm fortunate to work with her at Rearden Commerce. It is that connection that she makes with candidates, her ability to present opportunities in a very attractive manner, and the energy that she has that ultimately sold me on Rearden Commerce, and I’d consider any future opportunity that allowed me to work with her again.

May ChanSenior Accountant
May ChanSenior AccountantFirst off, Alana is a highly skilled professional with significant background and experience. She was very organized and structured in her presentations and was also a magnificent facilitator for collaborative discussions. Alana provided us a collaborative workshop over a few days enlightening us about many facets of recruiting (abridged list below): 1) Defining ourselves: culture, mission, values 2) Really understanding and defining what role, skillset, and qualities to look for in a candidate 3) Conducting successful phone and onsite interviews 4) How to debrief and assess candidates This workshop fundamentally changed the company's approach to recruiting, which is ultimately the most important component to successfully growing a company. The impact of Alana's workshop transcended beyond recruiting as several other areas of the company were positively impacted: 1) There was newfound sense of unity and alignment after collaboratively defining our culture and values leading to stronger belief in ourselves and the company mission 2) Overall company collaboration and communication improved substantially as we had learned a lot about each other during the workshop 3) This workshop made for fantastic practice in creating structure and building a process around recruiting. We then applied these principles and a similar approach to create structure and build process in other areas of the company Overall this was a fantastic workshop and highly recommended for growing companies, aligning a workforce, and creating significant improvements beyond recruiting.

David NorthwayVice President of Programs and Operations • GoPro / OtherAlana and I worked together at GoPro. She helped me build a very talented team there focused on image and video quality. GoPro is located in silicon valley where finding good candidates is not easy (especially in the specialized areas of image and video processing) and added to this, the company was going through massive growth. Alana did an awesome job with not only identifying great candidates but filtering them correctly so that the success rate for both phone and onsite interviews was extremely high. Alana is smart, very hard working, and very fast at grasping the job's requirements. She always has a smile on her face, a very positive attitude at all times, and is very easy to work with. Alana is also an amazing communicator and went to extreme lengths to makes sure that the candidates and the team are aligned on priorities and time frames. She is amazing at what she does, I am yet to work with a recruiter as good as her.
