EMPLOYMENT GUARANTEE
We want you to see results.

Customer - Unlocking My True Potential with John Booth and TopStack
John Booth and the team at TopStack provided an exceptional, profoundly personal recruiting experience that went beyond the standard career services. John didn’t just refine my résumé—he took the time to understand the creative and visionary professional I wanted to become. He saw beyond the bullet points and job titles, helping me craft a compelling narrative that showcased my skills and told my story with authenticity and vigor. From our first conversation, I felt seen and understood. John’s thoughtful approach and strategic insights transformed how I presented myself, elevating my brand in a way that aligned with my aspirations. His ability to translate my experience into a clear, confident, and creative message was masterful. Suppose you’re looking for someone who helps you find opportunities and ensures you show up as your best, authentic self. In that case, I recommend John and TopStack. Personal Recruiting was more than a service—it was a transformative experience that left me inspired, empowered, and ready to take on what’s next..
Justin - I've had a FANTASTIC experience...
I've had a FANTASTIC experience with TopStackResume. I first signed up for their "Professional" package, to get help with my resume, cover letter template, and LinkedIn profile updates/optimization. Truth be told, my resume had a very strong start before signing up, but TopStack's team and services quickly and expertly closed the gap between where my resume was and the unlocked potential I knew was there but was having difficulty achieving on my own. Dianna, the writer who was assigned to me, gets my highest praise. She was fast, efficient, and friendly and displayed excellent listening/communication skills and attention to detail. A true pro in my eyes. Shortly after receiving my first resume draft back from them, and because my confidence in their expertise was so high at that point, I upgraded my service package to their "Personal Recruiter" service. That service has been a game-changer for my job hunt, where I'm aiming for Director level or higher positions at technology companies. My recruiter, John, has simply been a life-saver, arming me with insights, strategies, confidence, and tangible work product that has transformed the tense, stressful process of finding my next job into an empowering and exciting journey. Every dollar and minute spent working with TopStack has been worth its weight in gold. I've now referred 2 family members and my girlfriend to sign up for their services, and all of them have had similarly positive experiences!
Rohini Boinapally - Amanda is the best!
I was connected to Amanda Jason when I requested LinkedIn for resume writing services. And then Amanda helped me rewrite my resume which landed me with some interviews. I then pursued this company which I was interested in and it had five rounds of interview sessions. And this overwhelmed me and made me anxious. Amanda then helped me with interview preparation sessions. Her help was immense with my final interview when it started getting very overwhelming. I aced my interviews and landed a job.
Thanks to Amanda for all the help she has given me to land my job. I would recommend Amanda Jason to anyone who is looking for resume writing services and interview preparation services. You will not go wrong with her.
Kim K. - Working with Amanda as my personal recruiter was a game-changer...
Working with Amanda as my personal recruiter was a game-changer in my job search. From the very beginning, she took the time to understand my career goals, strengths, and aspirations, creating a powerful and strategic approach that went far beyond just a resume update. Over several months, she refined my resume eight times, tailored eight unique cover letters, and optimized my LinkedIn profile to showcase my value effectively. Her support didn't stop there-Amanda went above and beyond, offering regular check-ins, monthly Zoom calls, countless emails and texts, and in-depth interview coaching that helped me build confidence and refine my approach. Because of her dedication, I successfully landed 8 interviews and received 3 offers, ultimately accepting a position that increased my salary by 33% at a company that aligns perfectly with my values and career ambitions. Amanda's expertise, strategic mindset, and unwavering support made all the difference. She encouraged me to leverage my network, guided me in navigating connections, and helped me see the specialness of my own story. I'm incredibly grateful for her guidance, insight, and commitment to my overall success. If you're looking for someone who truly invests in you and your career growth, Amanda is the recruiter you need!
Sandy Bruni - Let me share how amazing the experience was!
Let me share my experience with the remarkable John Booth. From our very first meeting to the final stages of my job search, he was incredibly proactive in guiding me on what I needed to do to find the right job. John exudes a positive energy that instantly puts you at ease; he has an exceptional ability to instill confidence, making you feel assured that everything will turn out well.
Navigating the job market can often feel daunting and overwhelming, but with John's support and expertise, the process transformed into a seamless journey, almost like a walk in the park. His insights and encouragement were invaluable, and I sincerely believe he is the best in the field. John will always be my go-to contact for any future job searches.
Thank you, John, for being truly outstanding! You are, without a doubt, the best of the best.
Dana - Best Investment in my Career!
I was connected with John Booth as part of the full service personal recruiter package with TopStack. He was so warm and friendly during our initial call, and had impressive results with clients so I knew right away I was in good hands. Given the way things were going in my industry, I was concerned about finding a job at or near my salary that matched my experience. However, just over a month after working with John, I got an incredible offer for a promotion and a very substantial salary increase. I have no doubt that John's optimized resume ensured I got noticed by the recruiter. We practiced targeted interview questions that ensured I was prepared with detailed, thoughtful responses for the hiring team. I would absolutely use John's services again. The confidence building alone was worth every penny.
