About TrustedHire
Minneapolis Boutique Recruiting Firm built on trust.
I started TrustedHire because, after 15+ years and five agency environments, I knew exactly what worked and what didn't. The boutique firms got the relationships right but couldn't scale. The big shops scaled but treated every search like a transaction. Neither was what small and mid-sized organizations actually needed.
The TrustedHire Story
TrustedHire is the version I'd want to hire. Deep functional expertise in Accounting & Finance, HR, and Operations. A process built for culture fit. And a recruiter who's still in your corner long after the placement check clears.
After 15+ years across five agency environments, I saw every version of how recruiting can go wrong. Firms that chased volume over quality. Recruiters who disappeared after the placement. Candidates who were sold the wrong opportunity. Organizations that made the same hiring mistakes over and over because no one ever slowed down long enough to ask the right questions.
I built TrustedHire to fix that. We work with a small number of clients at a time so we can do the work right. We go deep into your culture, your team dynamics, and what success actually looks like for this role, not just what the job description says.
Every finalist we present has been evaluated against your actual norms: how you make decisions, how your team works, what behaviors drive results in your environment. And we stay involved after the offer is accepted, through onboarding and beyond.
That's the difference. That's TrustedHire.

How We Work
01
Relationship Driven
We invest time to understand your long-term goals, your team's culture, and the kind of person who will thrive in your environment, not just check boxes on a job description.
02
Culture-Fit First
Skills can be taught; culture fit cannot. Every finalist is vetted against the actual norms of your team, how they work, decide, and disagree.
03
Built for the Long Game
We don't ghost at the offer letter. We close the candidate, prep the onboarding, and check in at 30, 60, and 90 days. Still answering the phone at year five.
