"As
always, you are at
the front of my call list with regards to when we
commence new hires"
Fortune
100 Vice President
(not named for privacy reasons)
"Frankly, I would prefer to do business
with you as you understand the market space and the
qualifications I'm seeking . . . Most of these
other recruiters are flying blind and just sending me anything
that has Essbase on it."
Fortune 100 Vice President
"Niche has been a favorite
of ours in the search for reliable, experienced, and cost-effective
staff. We have utilized
Niche personnel for consulting on several occasions, and even filled
a permanent staff position through Niche. Going to the vendors
for OLAP expertise is cost-prohibitive. We go
to Niche."
W.S. - NY, Manager,
Fortune 500
"Niche Technologists really understands
the unique human resource demands associated with the
latest Business Intelligence tools and technologies. Coupled with their warm
and personal service,
this makes them the first supplier I call when I need a temporary
or permanent addition to my staff."
C.F., NJ, Senior
Manager, Fortune 500
"Niche Technologists
responds with a sense of urgency to client requests and delivers
high quality resources. It's a real pleasure working
with an organization that not only wants to respond to critical
business needs, but has a wonderful focus on customer support."

"The assistance we got from Niche played a major
part in helping us to meet our objectives. The quality
of assistance was outstanding."

"My experience with
Niche Technologists exceeded
expectations. Dan was great to work with and did an
excellent job of matching my skill set to the client's needs.
The result was satisfaction for all involved."
B.Z. - NY
"As a professional who has been in ranks
for almost 25 years, I have experienced the workings of professional
placements firms and their approaches to assisting me in my quest
to grow in the IT market.
"With this experience in mind, I can emphatically say that
the tireless work and strong ethics associated with Niche Technologists,
and its president Dan Barber, has provided a
great positive change in my professional life. Dan's philosophy on matching the goals
of both the individual being placed and the hiring organization
includes a strong adherence to making sure the position is a right
fit for the client both personally and professionally."
D.S.
- CA
"I would like to
thank you for your attention and efforts regarding leveraging my
skills in a tough market. I can truly say that out of the dozens
of people I interfaced with over the five month period, you and your company
stood out above the rest in terms of treating me like
a person rather then just a resource. Thank you. Someday (not
too soon) I hope our paths cross again."
D.S. - CA
"It is refreshing to work with an organization
that truly "Walks the Walk" in its strong code of business
ethics in an industry that has taken its fair share of lumps. Dan
is a role model that others in this business should follow, if success
is to be the end result."
"The most thorough and thoughtful
recruiters I've ever worked with. Completely on top
of every step of the process. I've enjoyed working with them
and would recommend them to anyone."
E.T. - CA, Senior
Manager, Fortune 500
"The attentive support and
wise advices for me
while locating a full-time position demonstrated a high level of
sincerity blended with a mindfulness and deep understanding of my
need to find a healthy working environment. It was a delightful
and refreshing experience."

for consulting on several occasions, and even filled a permanent

Manager, Fortune 500
You (Niche) are the best of all the agencies that I am working with."
HR Representative - Fortune 100
"I always interviewed Niche candidates first."
HR Recruiter - Fortune 100 Company
"You were responsive, quick to provide candidates and had continual communications with us about your progress. You kept both parties informed in a timely fashion. I believe that is why we had a successful candidate in no time."
Vice President, Human Resources
“All the feedback from my management team indicates delight in the successes you’ve had placing people here. Thanks for your good help.”
Senior VP of IT, Fortune 100
“I really appreciate your work, to be sincere, you’ve been the best recruiter ever to work with.”
NY Job Seeker
“There are few people I connect with over the phone like I have with Dan. I would recommend anyone in the IT field who is searching for their next career milestone to look at his site and, if you are lucky, you will find a reason to contact him.”
CT Job Seeker
"We have utilized Niche personnel for consulting on several occasions, and even filled a permanent position through Niche."
Manager, Fortune 500
"Dan Barber is hands down the best recruiter I have had the pleasure of working with. With his help and guidance, I was able to land a position with a company that truly represents the best opportunity for my career in IT and Business Intelligence.
"Throughout the entire process, I was genuinely impressed with the way Dan conducted a targeted search tailored to my background and personality, ensuring that there would be a good fit for both myself and the hiring firm. This was clearly evident to me when I learned that he had personally drafted an in-depth candidate summary/recommendation about me based on both my initial conversations with him, as well as his own conversations with former employers of mine. This was a refreshing contrast from most recruiting firms I have worked with in the past, where I often felt like I was just a name written on a piece of paper to be auctioned off to the highest bidder.
"I also found Dan to be incredibly helpful throughout the actual interviewing process. While phone interviews are definitely not my forte, Dan's advice, coaching, and collection of articles he's written on interviewing definitely helped me ace the phone interviews and ultimately land the job."
FL Job Seeker
"Dan is at the top of his industry. His advice and feedback were critical in landing me the right job. I couldn't have asked for a better fit."
IL Job Seeker
"It was a pleasure working with Niche Technologists and Dan Barber during my job search. I have been working in the IT field for about 8 years now and there are very few recruiting firms like Niche who not only know exactly what the job requires, but are also able to give insight into the people and culture when going for interviews.
"I also found Dan Barber to be an honest and down-to-earth person, never hyping the job, just giving the plain and simple facts along with tips for the particular role I was looking for. Needless to say, I found a great position in an excellent Fortune 100 company thanks to Niche Tech."
NJ Job Seeker
"Niche Technologists placed me in a great company, one of those rare companies who really do care about their employees. I'm working with most of senior IT management on a weekly basis which is great . . . all are very well-heeled in their professions. My manager is a great boss and funny. I could not ask for a better environment in which to be. Thanks for finding me."
CT Job Seeker
"I thought you were great -- one of the best I have worked with. You went out of your way to make the decision making process easier - for example, by offering to hook me up with one of the people you previously placed with the client."
MN Job Seeker
"I worked with Daniel while pursuing a new position last year. Although I did not ultimately use Daniel's company for my most recent placement, I was very impressed with him for a few frank discussions we had in determining that the positions he had would not be a good fit for my career. Rather than just place me at a company where I would have probably been unhappy, he took the time to dig deeper and recommend against the move. He saved both the company I was looking at and I a lot of heartache. His top qualities: personable, expert, high integrity."
VA Job Seeker
"It was a pleasure working with Dan. I unsuccessfully searched for a position for almost a year before I hooked up with Niche. Thankfully, with Dan's help and guidance, I landed a great position. I would happily recommend Niche and definitely work with them again."
NJ Job Seeker
"I really did not have much experience with headhunters until I got in touch with you, and you have been nothing but helpful.
NJ Job Seeker
"I want to thank you for the effort and time you dedicated to my recent job search. As you know, in the beginning I had wondered if a "Daniel" really existed because I have been getting the Niche e-mail for so long. I had figured you were more of a front for a large, impersonal corporate recruiting engine. How wrong I was and happy to be so!
"Your personal style, coaching, and professionalism helped me successfully present myself to the hiring company with confidence and clarity. Your advice helped me discern the opportunity with a clear mind and be able to truly measure critical aspects of the job when making a decision.
"Additionally, once I received an offer, I most appreciated the help with fashioning a successful counter-offer (helping me obtain all but one of my counter points) that allowed me to accept the position. You were able to help me in the right places at the right time and I want to personally thank you for that. In short, your services were an invaluable aspect of my being able to secure an attractive offer."
MI Job Seeker
"I wanted to mention that I appreciate the way you run your business. I happen to be a religious person, and I do try very hard to be honest and practice the "Golden Rule," though sometimes it can be very tough. In the past, I've had disagreements with people who have said that you can't be a "nice guy" or an honest businessman and be successful as well. Though I don't know you well, you seem to me to be a solid example of someone who is both.
"I know these days it's hard to run a business with integrity and morals - - especially one that is commission driven, as yours is - - but I think you are doing a great job. Keep up the good work and may God bless you and your family!"
NJ Job Seeker
"I have been receiving e-mails from Niche for about the past two years. The personal sounding tone of the e-mails caused me to take a look at them and not delete them like it was spam. Eventually, I knew there would be an intersection of the right job at the right time and recently that very thing happened.
"I have been a travelling consultant for the better part of four years. My wife and I decided it was time to try and make a transition where I could be home in the evenings with our growing family. Given I have had a lot of success as a consultant, there was skepticism that I could find a permanent, "no-travelling" opportunity without giving up on the compensation side.
"Well, one day the usual e-mail from Niche came in and instantly my wife said "This is a perfect fit." So I replied to the e-mail and attached my resume and the next day I got a reply and Daniel and I worked out a time to call that weekend.
"Sure enough, after a good conversation with Daniel he was able to forward my resume, which he helped to personalize based on our conversation. Shortly afterwards I was requested for an interview, which with some coaching from Daniel went very well. Then I received an offer which included relocation, stock options, and a generous salary. However, there were a couple more details that I wanted to negotiate.
"To do this, I drafted the main points out and Daniel helped with the wording and I forwarded my counter-offer. After less than a day, I received an answer that met all but one of my desired changes. The item that did not get approved was not on my critical list so it was a go!
Personally, I truly appreciated the approach that Niche took in helping me realize an opportunity. Daniel was always available (and we had to have a couple of weekend conversations due to the fast-moving nature of the opportunity), had sound advice and helped me frame my thoughts in a fashion that allowed me to focus on the important things that mattered in the exchanges between myself and the hiring company. I hope in the future, when the time comes again, to look at the Niche e-mails in the inbox with another great match."
MI Job Seeker
"You helped me to completely overhaul my resume without my requesting; my resume was a mess before, and you made it shine.
You kept me updated about the status of the position and encouraged me to keep you updated at the same time; kept an open line of communication with me.
You asked me for feedback in order to improve your services; I'm impressed by those who invite both positive and negative feedback."
NJ Job Seeker
"Thank you for helping me out with my job search, particularly with reworking my resume. I updated my posted resumes to use the one you reworked, and also used the reworked resume on my job search. I think it helped a lot, since I got quite a few phone calls and I was offered a job 7 minutes drive from my house! I'll definitely get in contact with you if I start a new job search in the future, and I wish you the best in your business and everything else."
NJ Job Seeker
"Niche helped me to close on my job quickly and easily. Daniel related my offer to me as I was driving home from the interview. By the time I arrived, he had negotiated for me the high end of the range. The offer letter came by e-mail that night. Everything was handled quickly and professionally from the moment I first responded to the time I started the job."
FL Job Seeker
"I was pleasantly surprised by Niche Technologists to pick up my resume from dice.com from the thousands of resumes that Niche gets from dice.com. It goes to show that Niche Technologists does pay attention to them. Thanks Niche Technologists.
"Once my resume was chosen, Dan Barber went meticulously through my skills and interests and matched a job order to them.
His weekly report kept me informed about the proceedings with the hiring company/client.
"The whole process was very professionally handled and worked towards not only getting me the job but also getting a salary that was more than expected.
"Thank you Dan Barber and Niche Technologists.
"From me personally, Thanks Dan! I will certainly recommend Niche and refer them to the jobs that you have open."
NJ Job Seeker
"I would like to thank you again for all of your help, advice and especially your frankness and honesty. Out of all the other recruiters and consulting agency people I have met, only one other person has come close in the kind of coaching and communication as you. Now I finally understand why someone else would make some money when I get a job."
NY Job Seeker
"I really enjoyed the interviews, especially the last one. You are awesome. I haven't known anyone like you with so much sincerity."
NC Job Seeker
"Thanks for taking the time to go over role-playing the interview. I think it definitely helped me prepare. In fact, many of the questions we went over were actually asked during the interview. I am excited the client wants to schedule a second interview."
NJ Job Seeker
"Thanks for your follow up communications. Most people just leave job seekers hanging. You didn't."
GA Job Seeker
"I really enjoyed reading your (web site) interview tips - it is one of the most comprehensive and interesting batch of articles about interviewing that I have come across"
FL Job Seeker
"Daniel's direction provided me great insight on how to develop a target message to the recruiter as well as the mental focus for the interview process. His book is a must have when you're on the job hunt."
