Kienan Huber

General Manager

I have worked with many recruiters over the years. I have to say, Kane Selection are one of the best. They're focused more on placement “fit” for all parties, rather than filling a position. Throughout the process Kane Selection consistently communicated and were concerned about how me and my family felt. They genuinely care about placing people in the right positions at the right companies, where all parties win.

There are times in your life when the planets align. Kane Selection came to me with an opportunity, at a time where I was frustrated with many things in my career. I quickly realized they are more than a recruiter. They're a genuine advocate for the companies they represent and the prospects they deliver for their consideration. They became a sounding board for my thoughts and concerns, even challenging me to want more for my own career than I previously thought would be attainable. I will forever be grateful for Kane Selection and the change they are bringing to the recruiting profession.

Kane Selection does it again. Recently, I reached out and expressed the need for another crucial role within our company to be filled. We had that ad posted for two months with no applicants matching our need. Within 48hrs, we were presented with a candidate from Kane Selection who appeared the be the perfect match... I am certain Kane Selection has a very broad following and customer base but they always seems to have a way of making us feel like his only priority at the time. Thanks again Kane Selection!
