HQR was a true partner in helping me recruit the right talent quickly, without cutting corners.  Keith’s strong network, deep knowledge of our community, and the ability to maintain a broad inventory of technical skillsets enables HQR to get to the right fit more rapidly than other recruiting firms and with more effectiveness.

I’ve known Keith since I began searching for jobs in the industry roughly 20 years ago.  I’ve gone through Keith for both hiring, and job seeking services. I can honestly say that he’s a pleasure to work with on either side of the recruitment process, and am pleased that he’s now running his own operation, guaranteeing direct access to him specifically.  Communication has always been great, he’s easy to work with, and appears to have many connections in technology throughout the region, both with talent, and organizations looking to fill technical roles.   Many of my colleagues over the years are aware of who “Keith Goodwin” is, and have likely had some interaction with him as well.  To me, he’s somewhat of regional staple in my industry for recruitment and simplifying the initial conversation between potential employers and the candidate.  If you’re looking for employment in the growing IT/Development industry in Maine, I highly recommend working with Keith.

I’ve worked with Keith for many years now and each time I call him looking for work, he is able to find me the perfect IT position!  I recommend him to all my friends.  I see no need to ever work with anyone else for my job placement needs!  

Keith is the most honest, hard-working, and capable recruiter I have ever worked with. He has been a great business partner and has been instrumental in helping me hire several talented people.

I have worked with Keith for more than two years and together we have filled probably ten positions.  Our hire rate with Keith’s candidates is about 80% – so our management’s time is well spent, and his candidates usually exceed our intended skillset.
Keith is in constant communication with the company and each candidate throughout the process.  Candidates are well prepared for our interviews and they come with a good understanding of the company and the position. Keith’s assistance in negotiating final offer details is phenomenal.

 

I have worked with Keith Goodwin over the years and he has provided outstanding candidates and service. He understands our business and the culture of our company, which has resulted in presenting only candidates who are well worth further screening. We have hired a wide variety of people from Keith, including a CIO, a Customer Service Manager, a Business Consultant, several Business Analysts and a Software Developer. I highly recommend using Hire Quality Recruiting for your staffing needs!
