Every single touch-point from initial conversation to package negotiation is effortless for them. They deliver value on top of deep domain knowledge of a rapidly evolving industry. If Adaptive commit, they close. I have no hesitation whatsoever to recommend Adaptive to anyone. To put it simply, you will not regret it."

  • Thomas Seitz
    Managing Director

    “Recruiting for vacancies in the area of engineering and technical service has been a major challenge for us in the past. Long recruitment times, the pre-selection of unsuitable candidates and the final filtering of core competencies took up a lot of our resources.

    I would highly recommend Adaptive as an excellent recruitment agency. Adaptive provided us with competent, comprehensive, and professional support in filling the position of the second service technician at VISIONIX Deutschland GmbH. From the very first contact, the team impressed us with their precise understanding of our personnel requirements and their targeted approach to the search for candidates.

    Thanks to the structured pre-selection of suitable candidates, we were able to quickly get to know qualified applicants who not only fulfilled the professional requirements but also fit in well with our corporate culture.

  • Jared Cardon
    Director, QRC

    “Adaptive has been absolutely outstanding in their role as a headhunters. They take the time to listen carefully to the specific needs of clients and only suggests candidates who truly align with those requirements. This thoughtful approach ensures that she isn’t simply filling roles, but finding the perfect fit for each position. Adaptive's ability to find exceptional talent is remarkable. I’m thrilled with the new team members they have brought to us—they are a perfect match for both our professional needs and our company culture. Moreover, they understand the demands on my time and is always respectful of it. She never pushes for unnecessary discussions, making the process smooth and efficient.”
