“Jason Breault was awesome to work with.  I was impressed not only by his vast knowledge of the Supply Chain but also his level of professionalism.  Jason's ability to find the perfect match between the needs of the client and the strengths of the candidate is amazing.  He made me feel like I was him most important client and was always available as a resource when I needed coaching (or just venting!).  I cannot say enough about his follow-up calls, the "just-checking-in" calls and even the interview prep calls.  By the time we received my offer, Jason was more than a recruiter - he had become a friend.  There is no way I would be here today without him, and I will always be grateful to him for jumpstarting my career.  Jason is undoubtedly the best in his field, and I will continue to work with him until the day I retire!

-Demand Planning Manager, Central & South America, $1B Consumer Goods Company

"We were very impressed and pleased with our first experience with TopGrading Solutions.  Jason was able to quickly assess our business need and submit top candidates that fit our skill set requirements and our culture within days of our initial discussion.  In our small but high-growth environment, the ability to quickly assess our needs and present candidates that will succeed in our culture is rare.  We will definitely use TopGrading Solutions for our future candidate needs".

-VP of Operations, Health & Beauty Care Distributor

“Reading through the numerous testimonials on the TopGrading Solutions website regarding Jason Breault, I must say they are spot on.  After about a week or two of dealing with Jason I mentioned to my wife and family that I was working with the most courteous recruiter than ever before.  While working with Jason on a specific opportunity, I was also interviewing for a different job elsewhere.  Where other recruiters tend to push you for their self benefit, Jason never once pushed me to take "his" job.  In fact, he told me that I should work through the process for both jobs and make the best decision for me and my family.  Jason knew when to contact me and when to give me some time - it always felt like he called me at the perfect times in the process.  I can't say enough about his professionalism and would recommend him to anyone that I know of looking for employment.  Thanks Jason and TopGrading Solutions!"

-Sr. Demand Planner, $100B+ Alternative Energy Company

"Jason has gone above and beyond since our first conversation, and his effort hasn't stopped weeks after I accepted my new position.  He took the time to focus on my individual needs and match me with a perfect fit for my next career move.  Throughout the interview process Jason was always there as a resource and coach whenever I needed him, even if that meant after hours or on the weekends.  Jason is the model of how a recruiter should be -- I appreciate his help throughout the entire process."

 “I could not have been happier with my experience working with TopGrading Solutions.  Jason Breault is extremely knowledgeable, honest and most importantly willing to do everything in his power to support a candidate.  His patience in preparing me for all aspects of the interview process and answering all of my questions, no matter how early or late in the day, was greatly appreciated.  I don't think I could have done it without him.  I am ecstatic with the position he found for me and would recommend TopGrading Solutions to anyone.  It was truly a great experience!"

-Demand Planning Manager, Sporting Goods Company

"I am very glad that I made the decision to work with Jason Breault for my job search.  To begin with, he did a thorough work of understanding my career needs and qualifications.  He not only listed the advantages of the job and the company, but was also forthcoming with the possible minuses - relocation, commute, etc.  I found him to be an excellent coach throughout the process.  He was always ready to help with tips on how-to-prepare-for-the-interview, actual interviewing process, and helping me make the decision.  I will work with Jason anytime in the future.  'Thanks, Jason.  Please continue to do what you do so well'."

-Demand Planning Manager, Sporting Goods Company
