Quotes From Our Talented Candidates

I have worked with other recruiting firms, and none can compare to Martyn Bassett Associates. They offered a complete view of the technology hiring landscape and presented many senior sales and marketing opportunities with emerging technology organizations in North America. They eventually matched me with a growing, dynamic organization and I couldn’t be more thrilled with my role – a perfect fit.
Edmund Yeung, Director of Sales

In the past I have been extremely reluctant to work with recruiters as they have always seemed to have their best interests in mind, not the employers and certainly not mine. Toni Hooper at Martyn Bassett Associates is the exception to the rule. Expectations were properly set, timelines were accurate and the position described by Toni was exactly what my now current employer had envisioned as well. Toni (and by extension MB Associates) were a pleasure to work with.
Matthew Kaskel, Account Executive

I have been approached by many recruitment firms over the years, but I always felt like their client's interests came first and I was just an afterthought. I looked great on paper and my skills fit, but whether or not the fit was right for me was rarely a point of discussion. That certainly was not the case at Martyn Bassett Associates. Adrian Brown sincerely listened to me, regarding the corporate culture I was interested in and what sort of opportunity I wanted. Not only did Adrian adhere to this criteria, but he was very pro-active in ensuring I had all necessary information required, prior to my interviews. Working with MBA was a great experience and I am now very happily employed at a fast paced, dynamic and growing Canadian company, surrounded by the best and the brightest in my field. I owe it all to MBA.
Patricia O’Charchin Associate V.P., Sales

During every step of the hiring process, I felt that my recruiter was interested in my needs, and not only those of the employer. There aren’t many firms out there that make you feel like you’re truly being represented – Martyn Bassett is a great exception.
Leon Kharkhourin, Project Manager

I have had the pleasure of working with Martyn Bassett Associates Inc. as both a prospective candidate and from a hiring position as VP Sales. Martyn and Toni are extremely good and MBAI is definitely the most ethical search firm I have ever worked with. As a candidate, they were in my corner all the way and their briefings of the opportunities were first class. As VP Sales I contracted MBAI to fill 2 different VP roles and various sales positions. The candidates they sent me were always high calibre and exactly what I was looking for. I will continue to partner with Martyn Bassett Associates in future, their knowledge and understanding of the market is second to none.
Jason Currill, President & CEO, ICT Inc.

It's rare to find a recruiting firm as professional as Martyn Bassett Associates. I was always treated with the utmost respect, and from the very beginning, I felt as though I was in good hands. All discussions in regards to the opportunity presented, were very frank and upfront. They helped me land the right position at the right price. Sincerely, a pleasure to work with.
Peter Baxter, Sr. Business Solutions Architect

What makes Martyn Bassett Associates so different than any other employment agency? They listened to me and worked closely with me through each step in the process. Toni Hooper worked diligently to ensure that she found the best possible opportunity for me to achieve both my long and short term career goals. Thank you so much for your assistance, support and the professional manner in which I was represented.
Sylvie Caron, Sales & Operations Manager

I have only worked with a recruiting firm once before early in my career. That experience left me with a not so pleasant view of the subject, but once I was introduced to Martyn and his staff... I was treated as a real person, with specific needs. My needs and those of my family were acknowledged vs. just seeing me as another quick opportunity to close the deal, like other staffing agencies. Martyn REALLY took the time to get to know me, my career, and family needs, and then put us first, before the opportunity. Thank you Martyn for advancing my career to new heights, helping me make new friends and colleagues, and making my family happier.
Dennis Dayman, Privacy Officer

“I was very pleased with my recent executive search experience with Martyn Bassett Associates Inc. Adrian Brown was very informative and timely in his communication throughout the process and made himself available whenever it was required. His knowledge of the client and his honesty throughout the process was very refreshing and he ensured that my best interests, and those of his client, were always considered. I would have no hesitation in recommending Adrian and MBAI for your future executive search/placement needs.”
Gary Payne, CIO, Executive VP
