"I just want to say thank you for everything you did for me in finding my new position! You provided such wonderful personal attention, which was very impressive to me. It really was that extra touch that most companies do not seem to provide. I’m loving my new role. You had the ability to really get at what I was looking for – and you ensured a great match! I am having “fun” at my job for the first time in a very long time. I am challenged and treated like I matter! Thanks again! "

"I am both a client and a placement of Tangent, and their philosophy from both perspectives is both similar and remarkable. They not only look to match a candidate's skill set and education background to a prospective position, but are also seeking to match other attributes vital to success such as work ethic, motivation, character, and even sense of humor. The communication with Tangent is always open and frequent, and the honesty they display is impeccable."

"All I can say about Tangent West is that they are the best at what they do. As difficult as it is to look for employment in this area, they not only assisted me in looking for a great job, but they placed me in a position that has helped me with my self confidence, as well as learning to become a better manager, and I have Cheryl and her associates to thank for this. All it took was a phone call, and before I knew it, I had 3 interviews in one week. I comment on this because in this day and age, it has become difficult to get one interview, let alone three! All were outstanding companies in the Denver area, but what was most appreciated was the fact that I got to choose which job would be most beneficial to me. Cheryl, thanks again to you and all of you at Tangent West. "

Charlie Thrush
HR/Safety Director

"Working with Cheryl and her team was one of the best and most efficient business transactions I’ve experienced. From contract execution through final payment Tangent never missed a step, they were attentive, responsive and diligent. Cheryl was a delight to work with, fun, professional and always one step ahead, steering the process to a successful completion. I will recommend her to all of my business contemporaries and would not hesitate to engage Tangent for future needs. "

"I just wanted to say thank you so much for everything you did for me in my incredibly stressful job search. Having you as a resource in this terrible economy was such a blessing, and I am forever grateful. The position I now have trumps anything that I could have found on my own. Your company is by far the best - any other recruiter I went to was either too busy to take me on or simply told me that they had nothing for my skill set without taking the time to even review my qualifications. I appreciate all of the hard work that you put in for me, and if there is anything I can ever do to return the favor, please do not hesitate to ask."

"For the past 14+ years, it has been a very distinct privilege to know Cheryl Grimaldi both as an acquaintance and as a professional. I have been an Executive Assistant for 23 years in the Denver area and for many of these years I have followed the job postings from Tangent West. I was always well aware that these offerings have offered the most prestigious, the most interesting, the most challenging, and the most exciting career opportunities available in the Denver Metro area. These are the positions that no one ever hears about or could even imagine exist. I recently changed positions, in the darkest of economic times where opportunities were rare and for so many…non-existent. This move was exquisitely orchestrated by Cheryl and has proven to be a match extraordinaire. Cheryl knows her clients and she knows her candidates and there is no one in this business who is more devoted to creating a “real” situation where both the client and the candidate can expect to receive precisely what they are looking for and are given exactly what they have requested. And, there is no one who is better at this than Cheryl and her team. Cheryl is brilliant in that she always takes the time to provide both sides with the truth…a commodity worth much in this day and age. So, thank you so much for the opportunity to finally take advantage of the premier services that you have nurtured and cultivated over the years. The experience from start to finish was the best one could ever have. Tangent West, under the leadership of Cheryl Grimaldi, is the gold standard for exemplary service in this arena."

"Thank you for taking your time to speak with me today. I wanted to \"thank you\" for placing me in a position 9 years ago that changed my life for the better!!! I was placed at Brannan Sand and Gravel which was the absolute best job I have ever had and I am so grateful for that. During my employment, I learned and experienced so many wonderful things and what came out of that was not only a \"career\" but I married the love of my life who was also employed at the same company. Although circumstances changed for us and we are no longer there, we still consider them all friends and extended family! So, thank you for that!!! "

"Thank you for introducing me to Haynes Mechanical Systems! Everyone has been great and I’m looking forward to getting closer with the team. The work is interesting and varied…a great fit! You are the best!"

"We all know how much of a hassle finding a new job can be. Tangent West made finding a job that fit my needs easy. From help preparing for interviews to advice on how to make an easy transition to a new company, Cheryl Grimaldi and the staff at Tangent West did everything they could to make my job search an enjoyable experience. I couldn't be happier with the results."

Andy Diercks
Operations Manager
Further, The Denver Daily News Edwards, CO

"Being new to the Denver area, I was thrilled to have Tangent as my ally in the competitive "Mile High" job market. They worked with me to understand my past experience and my career goals; it wasn't long after those discussions that Cheryl called me with a great opportunity. With their help and guidance through the interview and job offer process, I was able to land a job that would help launch my Human Resources career. There was no effort to force fit me into a job that didn't match my experience or my goals- it was clear that they wanted to help me find the right development opportunity rather that "a job." Thank you to Cheryl & Tangent West- you're a class act!"

Holly Call
Human Resource Director
Deep Rock Water Denver, CO

"Tangent West was wonderful to work with as a candidate. The personal attention and desire to find your perfect fit for your skills and personality is unmatchable. This is why after being placed by Tangent West I went back to them when the need arose for a new employee. As the employer, the understanding and attention from Tangent West was just as great. I will continue to contact Tangent West whenever the need arises. "

Heidi Shaffer
Controller
Protecto Wrap Denver, CO

"I cannot say enough about the placement services I received from you and Tangent West. You took my needs, and more importantly, my wants and hopes for a new career to heart. I could not have dreamed up a more perfect fit than my new company- my first day was like being welcomed into a new family and each day since has found me increasingly impressed, challenged and *happier*. Thank you again for the hand holding and huge nudge in the right direction!"

Katie Smith
Executive Assistant to the CEO
Crocs Niwot, CO

"I think the value that Tangent West brought to me was more than just finding a technically competent individual – I expect that. What you and your staff have consistently done for me is to find the right personality. There is more to hiring than just finding a person that can do the job, we have to deal with each other eight hours a day, five days a week and if you get the wrong person, it can make things quite difficult."
