What Founders & Hiring Leaders say about working with us...
Hear from the founders and hiring leaders we’ve helped make critical technical hires across NYC and SF.
"Working with StellarSearch to find our first founding engineers was awesome. They quickly honed in exactly on what we're looking for and was tireless in finding us incredible talent; Good communication, high hustle and all around a pleasure to work with. Thank you Liam!"
"It’s honestly night and day compared to where we were before, after working with 4–5 other firms. My Co-Founder is very happy, and we’re happy to serve as a reference for other customers. We’re growing quickly and expect to hire at least 10 engineers this year.
Even though we’re bootstrapped and careful with hiring, the trajectory is very strong. Thanks for the effort, there will be more roles for you to help us with"
You’ve been sending us great candidates and tracking everything well. Thanks, Liam.
"Liam, and the StellarSearch team have been amazing at sourcing us extremely high quality product engineers. We've hired 4 engineers through them so far, and will no doubt continue relying on them for our engineering pipeline for the considerable future. Liam really took the time to understand our company and the type of engineer we're looking for.
I'm not really sure how he does it, but he continues to find us top tier talent that fits exactly what we're looking for. He's extremely open to feedback, and together we've developed a really strong pipeline process. I'd say we probably hire 1 in 10 engineers Liam sends us, which is an insane hit rate.Really can't recommend him enough!"
"Liam, Founder of StellarSearch, was a pleasure to have in my organization and a true leader on the team. He has an exceptional ability to quickly understand client needs, both their immediate priorities and long-term goals, and translate that understanding into results.
They consistently deliver on their commitments, often going above and beyond to ensure successful outcomes for his clients. Their reliability, follow-through, and focus on delivering real results made them one of the most trusted partners for the team."
"StellarSearch's ability to build lasting relationships that result in successes are unmatched. In sales, and in recruiting, one of the hardest skills to master is to be able to see the potential in clients before they sign on the dotted line. In other words, to see the value beyond the data.
Liam has mastered this skill, and it was a pleasure to be able to watch him work. I'd be hard-pressed to find a more consistent and compassionate person than Liam."
"Team, thanks for the great push. I am properly drowning in calls, and a lot are very high calibre. Continue giving me more"
What engineers say about working with StellarSearch...
Hear from engineers we’ve helped navigate and land roles at leading AI startups.
"I had a great experience working with StellarSearch. He was extremely responsive throughout the entire process, even late at night, and always made time to answer questions or check in. What really stood out was that he felt genuinely invested in my success. This really wasn't a typical recruiter relationship at all. He wasn’t relying on automation or generic messages, and it never felt transactional.
They were supportive, encouraging, and honestly felt more like a friend who were rooting for me to land the role. Now that we’re working closely together to help accelerate our hiring process, that same level of care and responsiveness has carried over. They're a great partner to work with and someone I genuinely enjoy collaborating with. I’d strongly recommend them."
"StellarSearch are excellent recruiters. Super punctual, amazing with follow ups, super insightful and helpful. They were motivating, kind and really went above and beyond to make me feel taken care of. Super informational and intelligent.
Definitely the kind of recruiters we need on the field."

They did a great job explaining roles, companies, and interview processes and was friendly + supportive throughout."

One of the most effective recruiters I've ever worked with."
