What BDA’s Director of Recruiting, Lynn Sanders has to say about Nxt Level. 

 

Why did you choose to work with Nxt Level?

 

I really don't work with very many agency partners because I like to work with a partner that meets certain criteria. And for me with Nxt Level they did. So what I look for is somebody that I can rely on, somebody that is really good at communicating where they're at in the process, and ultimately, somebody that can deliver really good quality candidates. And to be quite truthful, I've been in this business a long time, and agency partners really can be hit or a mess.  I think that's why I don't like to use too many, I like to use just quality few. And that's where Nxt Level fits in.

 

What sets Nxt Level apart for you?

​

Think in any relationship, business or otherwise, you want to feel like you have a connection to the people that you're working with. You know, we have something in the company that I work for in a partnership, and we sort of define it as a friendship. What that really means is that, that that relationship for that person knows you as well as you know yourself, right, that they have your back, that they are looking out for you, and that they are making sure they're making decisions that are you know, based in your best interest.

 

I think Nxt Level is really good at that. And they're really good at forming a relationship and staying on a cadence for the recruitment process that is reasonable.  I feel like Nxt Level handles everything very professionally from that regard, and is making sure that they're working within the constraints of my schedule. And I really appreciate that. That really has always been one of the things that stood out about Nxt Level to me is that they have formed a relationship that is based on trust and mutual needs being met. And I know I can count on them. And you know, they've always been one of the top agencies that I work with. If not the top agency. Let me just say they're the top agency.

Candidate Testimonials 

​

Nxt Level reached out to me out of the blue to explore a role that they felt matched my background. I was hesitant at first. I have found that sometimes recruiters assume a match and they have not really taken the time to bump a candidate’s skills up with the job description before reaching out thus wasting everyone’s time. Plus, I was not familiar with the company. Fortunately, I accepted their request for a conversation and am now two weeks into a job that fits my background like a glove. Thank you Nxt Level!

As is typical, these things can take time and the whole process was about two months. Nxt Level kept me informed, shared feedback and offered support the entire time. I really enjoyed having them managing the experience. They were professional, extremely knowledgeable about the company and culture, not afraid to say they did not have a specific answer, and really interested in what type of role would make me happy.

If you get the chance to work with Nxt Level, take it. They are genuine and committed to finding the right fit for both the company and the candidate.

I had the pleasure of working with Nxt Level recently and found them to be extremely knowledgeable, professional, and reliable. Not only did they do an impressive job screening, they were also very knowledgeable about the role he was filling and were able to answer all of my questions. Their follow-up was also superb. They quickly responded to emails/texts and always called when they said they would. I would highly recommend working with Nxt Level if you are looking to hire or looking for your next role!
