Jeff Snyder is quite simply the best information security recruiter working in the industry today. With 10 years of information security management experience, I've had the opportunity to work with many recruiters and placement organizations - none have had the passion and expertise for Security Recruiting, which Jeff brings to the table when placing the right candidate in the right position, at the right time.

The healthcare market poses unique challenges for information security professionals: understanding the challenges of using technology to deliver high quality patient care; complying with expanding HIPAA and other federal regulations designed to safeguard protected health information; realizing the workflow and business needs of a healthcare organization when developing policy. Jeff understands these unique needs and works quickly to find the right fit for the organization and the candidate.

Jeff ,a Security Recruiting Professional, has repeatedly shown the ability, in a highly specialized and competitive market, to consistently present a list of highly qualified candidates that not only meet, but exceed expectations, leaving the organization in the enviable position of selecting the best candidate from a selection of several qualified individuals. I look forward to working with Jeff in the future when filling information security positions.

“Jeff and I started working together at Bradford & Galt, Inc. in about 1991. From the start, Jeff caught on very quickly and showed a great deal of passion about the recruiting business. Since those years, we have both left to start our own companies and have had occasion to partner on some projects. Jeff certainly demonstrated the same level of commitment to the industry and quality that he possessed when we worked in the same office.

Jeff CISSP, ISSAP, ISSMP, C/EH, CCE, TICSA, Security+, Financial Services

This is a formal letter of recommendation for J.A. Snyder and Associates. I have known Mr. Jeff Snyder for the past decade. He recruited me once as a candidate. I have used the services of his organization ever since its inception.

Mr. Snyder worked with my staff, the Human Resources department and myself. Not only did he understand the technology infrastructure completely, he understood the type of personnel that will enhance it. He probed us until he completely understood the type of people that fits our corporate philosophy and culture. Sometimes it seems like he knows us better than ourselves.

Mr. Snyder is a relentless worker, who earns every penny of the recruitment fee. He is unconventional in his search for the right fit. He works with the candidate, and is always candid in briefing us to their strengths and weaknesses. He never hesitates to caution us about some potential shortcomings in a candidate even after he has presented a candidate. He is always trying to look after our best interest. Best of all, he is following up and giving us feedback throughout a recruitment process.
He works with both the candidate and employer to figure the best compensation package that is win-win for both parties. He is excellent in coaching and guiding both parties through this tricky yet necessary part.

Jeff's ability to understand the nuts and bolts of technology is a key factor as to why candidates trust him to find them job enrichment and employers depend on him to present the right skill set. That is the reason we continue to deal with him exclusively. He saves us valuable time and money. He usually provides very few candidates for a given opening, and we benefit from his narrow focus.

Jeff has filled Technology Management to heavy-duty application development positions for us. He continues to keep abreast of what is necessary to be successful in a particular area in technology.

He made me successful and I believe he can do the same for others in my position.

Regards,
Sam, CTO and EVP, Incentive Marketing

"Jeff was simply phenomenal in helping me get my new position - my dream job actually! His advice and encouragement were absolutely right on and without him, I can't imagine I'd have even the slightest chance for this great opportunity. He's the best!"

Sharon, Information Security Analyst

Jeff first contacted me in early 2003 about a CIO opportunity. He was extremely knowledgeable about his client, apparently having worked with them over time placing other professionals there and having earned their trust and respect, and was able to provide me with very rich background and support as we considered this potential role. We worked with Jeff's client to ultimately place me into this role; and it has been the type- and caliber of professional experience that I had sought and expected. I look forward to working with Jeff again as my career progresses; my experience with Jeff gave me an appreciation for his depth of knowledge and his high integrity. I also highly recommended Jeff as a member of a special group of professionals I will seek to work with again, RAF_"

Jeff, Business Development, Sales & Marketing Executive
