Hazan Lynn & Associates

Lynn is amazing, I’ve been looking for a position for several weeks so far and I’ve spoken with more recruiters than I can count. Lynn is different, she truly cares about matching the right candidate with the right company. She asks a lot of questions to make sure the fit is right, she is honest in her assessments and offers very candid and constructive feedback to ensure the candidate is completely aware of the details of the position as well as being very prepared for any interviews. Not all positions are a perfect match, Lynn gets that and wants to make sure that her clients are happy with her recruiting skills and that her candidates are well suited and happy in their new roles. I look forward to working with Lynn again.

I met Lynn Hazan through LinkedIn and she was a wonderful asset in my recent job search. Lynn coached me on better focusing my past experiences and career aspirations. Although Lynn had no positions for me as a recent graduate with an MS in Communication, she talked to me about careers that might be open to me and gave me some advise on obtaining them. Putting her suggestions to work helped me secured a position with a Fortune 100 company. Thanks, Lynn Hazan!

Lynn was my contact all the time. She helped me to improve my resume and it did help me a lot: I got myself many more interviews with the new resume. Lynn is very responsible person and great to talk to. She answered all my phone calls and emails immediately.

I recently worked with Lynn and her associate Anne; thanks to them, I landed a great position! Lynn definitely does her homework and prepped me well for all of the interviews (I had to go through several for this firm). She definitely listens to her clients and advocates for them strongly. Another reason why if I am looking for a new candidate myself, I’d certainly use Lynn’s firm.

I would never work with Lynn Hazan again after my experience. She is abrasive and aggressive at best, and disturbingly manipulative at worst.
Right after she submitted me to a client for a position, she was in my face constantly, complaining if I didn’t respond to her emails within an hour or two. Uh, lady — I have a full-​time job, I have meetings and obligations other than you! She would say things like, «I thought you said email was the best way to get ahold of you. But I didn’t see a response from you, so I called. I just want to make sure you’re REALLY interested in this role.» It’s the kind of pressure and mind games used by sketchy car salesmen.
When setting up the interview, I said I was wide open all day on the chosen day, with no meetings or conflicts. She the proceeded to ask me no fewer than 3 times, «What about 10:00?» «What about 2:00?» It didn’t matter how many times I said, «Really, ANY time is fine, I am wide open,» she did not hear it. Then she wasn’t sure until the last minute whether the interview would last two hours, or just one hour. And then she failed to provide me with critical background information: the name of the website I’d be writing content for, so that I could have looked through it ahead of my interview.
Then I went on my interview. Afterward, Lynn emailed me saying the client was passing on me because «I hadn’t brought samples or my resume.» Actually, I had brought both, but the client hadn’t asked for them and in fact appeared to possess them already. Lynn didn’t bother to check facts on this before asking me, «Were you really interested in this position?» As if I’d been lying to her or wasting her time.
The whole thing left a bad taste in my mouth. I simply do not understand Lynn’s bizarre and unprofessional behavior.

Lynn is absolutely crazy and unprofessional. I would expect a recruiter to know better than constantly harass you while you are at your current job about your applications/​offers to other jobs.
Job seekers — If you are unemployed she will be a great advocate as long as you are willing to take the first offer RIGHT AWAY, without question.
Employers — If you are searching for talented individuals, ones who probably already have jobs, DO NOT USE LYNN HAZAN. When a company is ready to make an offer she turns into a used car salesman as she can smell her commission. I was very turned off by her style. She will give your company a bad image and will drive away talented individuals who have options!
