Kipp and his team are helping me with my search for the next new challenge. Throughout the process so far, Kipp was responsive, encouraging and supportive. Interviewing process was never enjoyable. I very much appreciated Kipp’s encouragement and support. A lot of the headhunters were transactional and did not want to waste time building relationship with the candidates. I felt that the Skyrocket team was actually invested in the success of their candidates. It is such a rare but great thing to see in the recruiting business. Thank you Kipp and the whole Skyrocket team!

Do not trust Skyrocket Ventures with any of your personal info. The recruiter I spoke to behaved completely unprofessionally, including leaking private information about colleagues I was working with over the phone. Since then, I have continued receiving unsolicited cold calls from them despite my requests to be placed on their do-not-call list. Do not work with Skyrocket Ventures.

Skyrocket Ventures helped me find a job in the AI space. They are well networked and have a good perspective on the job scene and rising startups. Excellent professional career coaches that helped me navigate multiple offers, enabling me to make the right decisions for myself. Very excited to start my new gig soon.

I was initially skeptical of the agency due to the clandestine nature of the listing I applied for and the initial call. However, as soon as I heard back from an agent that the application had lead to an interview, I was completely on board. Bobby (my contact) ensured I was updated on every part of the process and answered any question I had. He was incredibly knowledgable of the company and industry and had valuable perspectives on the best career path. Im very happy with the end result and I would urge anyone considering working with this agency to leverage their services. Thanks Bobby!

Worked with Matt, he gave me a some actionable items for improving my resume and explained why it was important to include or mention things in a certain way. The framework he provided for me on how to optimize my resume and linked in profile for recruiting opened my eyes to some of the frustrations that recruiters have when picking out candidates.

Matt was not only able to provide me with an opportunity that I was excited about but also had the industry knowledge himself to offer guidance as I navigated my interviews / thought about my next job.Perhaps what was the most helpful was how he listened to my career ambitions + what I was looking for and worked with the company on them. It felt like we were a genuine team -- whereas many of the recruiters whom Ive worked with in the past primarily would force the applicant into a role at all possible costs.Would highly recommend working with them as someone recruiting for a job.

Had a great experience working with Skyrocket Ventures and they found an awesome role for me in a high growth company that I would not have otherwise even known was available.From the introduction through the offer negotiation, Kipp and his colleagues were very clear, transparent, and thorough.Their process of getting to know me and finding out the details of what kind of companies and jobs I desired was very efficient and effective. They put a few possibilities in front of me and all of them were worth exploring because they had a clear picture of what to look for. Such a big difference from the spams I often receive that are off target.They were also instrumental in helping me decide between some very different offers I was considering. The amount of detail and information they were able to share with me about the path available within the company was incredible. It allowed me to make a great decision, and it could not be playing out any better!Highly recommended if you want someone in your corner who is really looking out for what you want for both your current and long term career path.

Had a great experience landing a recent role with Kipp from Skyrocket. Unlike other recruiting firms that mass send resumes, Kipp really gave me great strategic advice in a relatively tricky time for engineers to navigate this shifting job market. He put several companies on my radar in niches I dont think I would have actively applied for on my own, but in fact turned out to be a perfect fit. Really enjoying the first few months of this current role all thanks to his guidance and strategic advice.We had built a business relationship starting about 3-4 years ago when I wasnt actively looking, and he did a great job of keeping me up-to-date on opportunities with checkins about twice a year. When it was the right time for me to begin a new job search about 4 months ago, we were able to hit the ground running with a lot of background context. Couldnt ask for a better or more knowledgeable team.Also very important, I think the handshake introduction to the companies he helped match me with really helped me stand out from the crowd. If you are an engineer looking for your next role, the value which Skyrocket brings you is very different from the general job sites or linkedins of the world. Tech is constantly changing. You really want someone in your corner, to help steer and negotiate, who actually has their finger on the pulse of the whole industry because they are closing deals everyday. Thanks Kipp!

Skyrocket Ventures is a good place for people who are looking to join growth startups that are under the radar. If youre looking to join a company close to IPO, or a public company, skyrocket is not the best place. If you want to try to see what domains are out there for smaller tech companies, they really care about matching you with a company that aligns with your background. Shoutout to Kipp who helped with the recruitment process.

Skyrocket Ventures regularly harasses me with cold recruiting calls despite the fact that I keep telling them that Im not looking for a new job, Im not interested in working with a headhunting recruiting firm even if I was looking for a new job, and to take me off their list. They constantly email me too, but at least those are easier to ignore.
