Read What Our Clients Are Saying

IQ PARTNERS came highly recommended to us and it's clear to see why. Rhys was professional, highly responsive and immediately understood what we required. We were presented a great collection of candidates and were able to make a successful hire seamlessly. True industry leaders and looking forward to working together again to expand the team.

Matt Oliver, VP, East Coast Sales - Grapeshot

We have been working with Rhys Metler and IQ PARTNERS for over 3 years and have had some of our top hires from his team. They work under tight timelines and are highly responsive to our requests and recruitment needs. Working with them allows us to hit our hiring KPIs, but its also fun. Keep up the good work!

Martin Kocandrle, Managing Director, Mediaplanet

We've now worked with Rhys and the team at IQ PARTNERS for two new hires and I would recommend them to any of my colleagues. They found qualified candidates and did a great job vetting them before my team met with them. They were always professional, efficient and effective. I would use their services again without question.

Sam Campbell, Director of Sales, Media City

Rhys and his colleagues have always been attentive to our recruitment needs, and provide great candidates on an extremely consistent basis. It always feels like IQ has our best interest in mind, and is genuinely happy to help us staff the office. Much appreciated from the team at MP.

Jacob Weingarten, Sales Manager, Mediaplanet

So far we've used IQP for 4 very successful searches and I can't speak highly enough about our experiences. IQP has dramatically impacted our company. Just an FYI.

Paul Laredo, President, iNX Commercial Janitorial Services
