Success Stories
They don’t care how much we know until they know how much we care.
I had the pleasure of working with Susie Japs and her amazing team. Wejungo did an outstanding job from start to finish. In building our recruitment & hiring strategy, to a revamp of our job descriptions and selection process. They even came to our office for an interviewing training workshop session with our team. It was amazing. We will be working with you again soon. Thank you so much.
We hired Wejungo to first conduct a reviewal and identify what’s working and not working when it came to our current hiring process. Wejungo worked with us to help implement sourcing and interviewing techniques to increase the volume of quality applicants and strengthen the relationship between HR and our hiring managers. With the new sourcing strategy customized to our business, we have accelerated and improved the quality of our staffing on our 3-4 most recent hires. I highly recommend Wejungo to any company who truly wishes to elevate the quality of new hires AND improve their company’s hiring capabilities.
We engaged Wejungo to review our organization of 22 locations and our Talent Acquisition and Recruiting needs in particular. They exceeded our expectations on all fronts. Their analysis of our needs and recommendations were outstanding. Susie Japs and her team conducted interviews with our key leaders/employees and got to the bottom of the key areas that needed to be addressed including a fresh look at our organizations’ functions. We further enhanced our engagement with Wejungo to assist with the implementation of their recommendations as well. The entire company is extremely satisfied with the successful outcomes from our consulting assignment with Wejungo and look forward to continuing to use their professional services to support our People and Culture initiatives.
Wejungo came in and changed our whole perspective on the recruiting, or as I now know it, sourcing process. They were able to walk us through the entire process and change the way we think about hiring. Susie opened our eyes and allowed us realize that in order to attract top talent, we want to stand out. They were so thorough that we were able to use the tangible takeaways and seamlessly integrate these steps to improve how we hire. We have received positive feedback from candidates who were impressed with the unique look of our talent profile as well as from our internal team who appreciated the fact that the process allowed them to see the full scope of what they needed to successfully fill the position. We are incredibly grateful to Wejungo and thank them for our sourcing makeover!
We found Wejungo after we heard from a client how great they were, we then found them online. Right away I could tell they were different by their messaging and the way they presented themselves on their website. The first meeting with Susie and her team impressed me and the decision to work with them on our Business Development Leader role was a “no-brainer” based on their creative recruiting approach and the thoughtful questions they asked me in that first meeting. We are so thrilled with the market intelligence, honest feedback and suggestions that were made to us along the way to help ensure we saw the best of the best in the market. I have honestly never worked with a recruiting firm as thorough and focused on the long-term fit as this one.
As a not-for-profit, Feeding the Soul Foundation we are always open to ways we can improve from people we trust. I reached out to Susie at Wejungo to guide us in what I originally considered a simple question and what I received was better then I had ever anticipated. Susie was able to help us identify our goals and most importantly she inspired me to open the door to something greater than I could have imagined. As we set the foundation, she gave me the clarity to address challenges and follow-up on action steps we much needed to take. My original simple question was really a big challenge, which was aligned, confronted and solved with direction and strength from Susie. As an entrepreneur and the Director of Events I am would recommend any one seeking business guidance and new development opportunities to contact Susie at Wejungo immediately. Thank you Susie for what you created for us!
Susie Japs and her staff at Wejungo did a fantastic job in moving my company and my mindset into social media and branding. As a small business owner, I spend most of my time focused on my clients and their needs, so I often miss out on new ways of marketing and presenting my firm. Wejungo helped me to better understand social media and provided the steps and encouragement needed to build an online presence that meets my company’s goals. Thank you, Susie!
Susie was very thorough and really knows how to help entrepreneurs like me. She was accepting of my own style, yet assertive in keeping me on track. She followed through with concise summaries of the work we did, giving me assignments and next steps. What I appreciate most is that Susie was very focused on me and my new venture so it felt like she is a member of my team. I highly recommend her services since she helped me do what others could not!
Susie intuitively picked up our business concepts, helped define customer targets, internal systems-problem areas, shape our hiring guidelines and collaborated with me on our strategic plans. Her tireless enthusiasm to help our national nonprofit will have lasting effects for years to come. I strongly recommend Susie as her skills and abilities extend far and wide.
Thank you for listening to my needs as a business owner and uncovering our true potential. This was truly an investment in the success of our business rather than yet another consultant fee. My business immediately benefited from your ability to understand my company and to get right to the point with a plan of action with measurable results to top it! My whole staff and company saw an immediate benefit from your brief time with us and we continue to be energized with all the new improvements in our performance. You were right, we really DID create success TOGETHER, and we will continue to do that!
We brought in Wejungo to our company to consult us on how we can hire the best people in our industry and then keep them. Being a small start-up business with only 27 employees we don’t have a lot of time, nor the knowledge of how to attract, hire and keep our best employees. They took the time to ask us the right questions in the beginning and then recommended the perfect talent management solutions based on our business goals. We were also able to create a manageable and repeatable new hiring/interviewing process. We love your slogan – Creating Success Together because that is truly what we did! We look forward to working with Susie Japs and the Wejungo team again in the near future!
Susie strives to be a great asset to anyone she is involved with. Success oriented, focused, and attuned to detail, she gets the most out of your time and hers. A smart and practical observer of business situations, she can offer help in several ways. Sometimes the help comes in the form of her thoughtful, Socratic questions that bring out the solution that you have buried inside of you. I would say that my results with Susie would be on the scale somewhere between “amazing” and “unbelievable”. We achieved every goal that we set with Susie, and we now have a better understanding of where we want to go.
We have a high-end travel company catering to Executives and their families. When I came across Wejungo I was immediately impressed by the resources that were offered. Susie is one of the most dynamic individuals I have ever met and she is always coming up with the most strategic ways to run our business and pushing me to look at things in completely new ways. We hired Wejungo in 2012 to create a re-design of our organization layout and help us find an HR consultant to support the hiring of 12 new employees in 2013. We are so pleased with our new org structure and it’s keeping us excited and motivated to keep improving. I would highly recommend working with Wejungo, they are top-notch!
Susie has been top drawer to work with from start to finish. Her recommendations and outside the box thinking led to one of the greatest job placements of my career. I truly can’t thank her enough for her insight and continued creativity throughout our process. I would highly recommend her services!
Our experience with Wejungo has by far exceeded any others we have worked with in the past. Their weekly updates were really helpful to help put into perspective the work/candidates they were talking with and the market in general. The bios supplied for the candidates that were introduce to us, again, great information. It’s clear the team dove deep with each one to really determine fit and experience. Of course just as people, very pleasurable! The way in which they could speak to each candidate was simply amazing. We were extremely lucky to have Wejungo as such an integrated partner through this process.
Over the course of my career I have had the opportunity to work with several very good executive recruiters. Susie is as good as it gets. Her attention to details, interview preparation, de-briefs, and constant input/feedback from both myself and her client were of the finest order. I truly enjoyed working with her, as it was such a positive experience!
Every start-up needs someone who can understand what working 24/7 and working multiple job hats means and not every business consultant out there really knows that world. Working with Wejungo and Susie, literally felt like they were part of my company. At times they were working even harder than us to help build a solid foundation for my start-up. I wanted to double the capacity and revenues for this year in 2013. It’s not even the end of the year and we have reached our goal…this would not be possible without Susie’s sound business knowledge, dedicated guidance and ability to show me how to hire real “game changers” for my company. Thank you for making it possible for us to succeed!
I was referred to Wejungo™ by a client who mentioned that we should talk with Susie about talent management and improving our hiring practices. I first thought “what the heck is talent management?” so I called them to find out. We have a very small HR department of 2 individuals and have not had great success with headhunters, but we needed to hire 5 new people in a 6 month period. Within minutes Susie blew me away with her knowledge and well-thought out questions. I brought Susie in to create hiring practices, help me identify where there were gaps of skill sets in my team and she even ended up finding us the best Division Manager possible for our $65M company!
I found Susie on LinkedIn after noticing we were connected with a bunch of the same people in my industry. Now keep in mind this was the first time I had reached out to a recruitment agency – previously I had always been called by a headhunter, and they always claimed to have the ‘perfect’ job for me, without knowing anything about me. So I was definitely skeptical, however I discovered in the first 5 minutes talking with Susie that she was not a head hunter, she was something better. Her feedback, tips and guidance brought me to the best job I’ve ever had in my career, and honestly I would never have heard about it, nor matched myself up to it without Susie. Thanks for being my career champion!
We hired Wejungo beginning of 2014 for human resource planning – to help us re-structure and streamline our operations and HR department so that everything would work better after we experienced growth of 45% in the last 12 months. Honestly we were at a loss of what to do and the Wejungo team was able to come in, ask the right questions, assess the situation and make stellar recommendations. I was able to trust them almost immediately and then begged them to consult for another 90 days and help us actually put the systems into place with our team. I’m happy to report things are running very well still – we are on track to grow another 40% for 2015 and most importantly with a significant increase in productivity and employee engagement. Thanks for the hard work!
As a CEO finding the right VP of Sales for our company has been challenging. After 3 months of us trying to recruit on our own, we threw up our hands and decided to go with a headhunter. I have been blown away by the care and time that Susie’s team has taken with each candidate that was presented to me. They not only made sure to match the candidate’s previous experience to the technical requirements of our job, but also to match that candidate’s goals and management style to our corporate culture. For Wejungo™ their goal clearly isn’t to just fill a position, they have provided us so much more! We sometimes can find ourselves rushing to hire someone and forget that a candidate who can do the job today isn’t necessarily someone who will be a good fit in a couple years.
