"I met Hilani in the Fall of 2017, 5-months into my job search, while she was working on an assignment. At the time, the assignment was not a fit but because we immediately connected, we stayed in close contact. Having had lackluster experiences with traditional recruiters, I immediately became a fan and advocate of her business model. We worked on a few more options while I stayed active on my own. In the Winter of 2018, she took me to lunch…"

From the first day I spoke with Hilani, I knew she was the person that would help me find the perfect position that matched my skill-set and qualifications. Over a short time span, she worked tirelessly..."

Read More"Within the first two weeks of connecting with Hilani, I had 4 interviews lined up. But the quality of interviews far exceeded the quantity of interviews. The most amazing thing about this process with Exceptional Admins is how Hilani strategically and mindfully puts you in front of employers who have similar values, personalities and can immediately see how you would fit within their organization. Mid-way through my 3rd interview, the employer saw my potential and told me he had an even better job opportunity than the one I was applying for. 68 days after my first email to Hilani, I started my new job with a company who has immense growth potential and reveres my professional skills beyond what I could have ever imagined..."
