A person who went by the name of Vee reached out to me about a property maintenance position. It was suggested after the interview that if I had any follow-up questions to feel free to reach out. Upon doing so, I followed up with a basic question 3 times about the position and got a beating-around-the-bush answer. With a sarcastic final answer of 'if/when we forward you to the client, and "if /when i the client wants to interview you, we will get into the specifics" with a final ..." hope that is clear", answer. Yes, clearly rude, dismissive, and unprofessional. Remember, they reached out to me, not vice versa. Use DM Estates Staffing; they are less dismissive of basic questions and more professional. Best of luck to all clients and candidates! read more

I've been working on and off with Thuha for a few years now and she is one of the best recruiters I've ever had the pleasure of working with. Thuha communication is top tier and I never hesitate to ask a question because I am always met with a solution. I 10/10 recommend working with her. read more

Bonita was incredible! She was helpful in so many ways from the very beginning of my job search to when I received an offer. She helped with my resume, interview preparation, insight on the employer, salary negotiation, etc. Bonita is so experienced that I really trusted her judgement. She was responsive, knowledgeable, answered all my questions, and would put me at ease whenever I was unsure of something. Also, I feel like Bonita and Truex Metier are all about quality. They don't spam you with random roles to see which one will stick. They are really looking out for the best interest of the applicant and employer. Unlike other recruiting companies, they only reach out when they have found the perfect fit. I moved on from a company that I was with for 7 years and Bonita helped me find a position that had everything I was looking for including growth, flexibility, and salary. read more

I was introduced to Bonita in late April and had accepted a job offer by mid-June! When Bonita and I first connected, I shared my (somewhat) conflicting desires to work at an organization that focused on advancing social justice and wellbeing while holding hopes of a significant increase to my salary. I can confidently say that Bonita was successful in helping me find and land that role! My salary will have increased by 26% and I'll be working at an organization that aligns with my personal and professional values. I have deep appreciation for Bonita's attention to detail (i.e., reminder emails, interview prep materials, and ensuring interview invites have been received). Her team is also amazing, as they provided seamless support while Bonita was on away on PTO. I hope that I'm not in the job market any time soon, but if I am I definitely will be reconnecting with Bonita and the Truex Metier team. read more

I love working with Truex Metier. I've been working with them for several years and it's refreshing to find a group of talent specialists who truly care about your career. I love working with Vivian Ford - she cares about your interview journey and is very responsive. Truex Metier changed my professional life by opening the doors to so many wonderful opportunities. If you're truly ready to partner with a reliable talent agency, Truex Metier should be your first and only option. Their service and attention to detail is unbeatable. They prepare you and value your needs. It's refreshing to find a talent agency that cares about you and wants to help place you in the most successful position possible. read more

I spoke with Bonita months before I was ready to take the plunge and switch jobs. I found her to be very sincere and helpful in guiding me and making sure I was ready before taking the leap. Months passed and when I finally felt ready to transition jobs, I reached out to Bonita and asked for her assistance with finding the right place to land as an EA. She asked me a lot of questions to gain a full understanding about what type of job and manager I was looking for and made sure that she was only offering me options for job opportunities with locations and salaries that met my requirements. When she came across a job opening that she thought I would be a good fit for, she guided me through the interview process ever step of the way. I have never worked with a recruiter who was so invested in her client's well-being and career. Bonita is great and I've referred a couple of friends her way already who are seeking administrative job opportunities. I'm happy to say that I landed a great job at a Venture Capital company with a great manager and I have Bonita to thank for it. Thank you Bonita!! read more

Bottom Line Up Front: If you are looking for a new EA position, there is no better group than Bonita, Kristy, and Truex Metier. They are extremely supportive, responsive, and will guide you in every step of the process. They are experts in the field and have a really great reputation, so companies trust them and they really make it easy for the job seeker! A few months ago, I decided that I needed a major change in my life and decided that the change would be where I worked. I was in my previous position for over six years, and while I still enjoyed my job, I knew that after two years of COVID and having the same environment, I was ready for something new. I had known about Truex Metier for a while and finally decided to reach out. I completed the online form and Kristy emailed me soon after. We set up an introduction call and decided to transfer my profile to Bonita, as I was looking for positions in the peninsula. I had a quick follow up call with Bonita. I let her know that I wasn't in a rush and that I was more focused on finding the right fit. She reached out to me about two months later when she found two positions that she thought would meet my needs. I started interviewing with companies from a completely different industry. Bonita assured me that the companies knew about my background and were open to it. She was there to answer all my questions, do mock interviews, before interviews, after interviews. She was so amazing and helpful. Seriously, I couldn't have done it without her. I've been in my position for about a month and we still check in regularly. Everything is going great and I love my new job! Thank you, Bonita! read more

Having used specific recruiters to represent me for over 25 years I responded to a new role supporting a CEO in the Peninsula that Truex Metier had posted. Bonita Jung reached out to me immediately. She was extremely through, precise and gave a great description of the role. She was in close communications with me about my interview process, as I was actively interviewing and was to receive 2 other job offers in the upcoming week. I received 3 offers that week (one of which was the job Bonita represented me with) and I am happy to say, Bonita was a huge factor for my taking the job...so HUGE THANK YOU! Bonita - this one goes out to you! -JS read more

I tried giving this recruiting agency a chance, I really did. There were just so many red flag warnings about them from the start. My issue with Truex has been going on for two years. My background as an EA, a full polished support to CTOs, CIOs, and CFOs for nearly 9 yrs were all thrown out of the window just because I worked previously at Alameda County. Yes that's right, they are absolutely against federal (or ex federal) workers in government sectors. You apparently need to work at a startup or any venture capital firms way back in the 18th century in order for you to gain "proper amount to experience in a fast paced environment for more than a year". I rolled my eyes at Bonita to even think other wise at the fact that my traditional EA job specifications differs that to the private sectors. And check this out, I asked her what's the difference between an MS outlook to a federal employee (scheduling for executives) versus an outlook in a venture/private sector employee...she couldn't give an answer. (Correct answer: no difference. MS outlook is the same everywhere. It's integrated for us EAs to utilize for our execs). Trump was right about one thing, jobs are everywhere but they'll hire someone without a second eye. Second red flag, their office was in a residential house! I went in to interview and was greeted no less than a smile but heard guys upstairs. Okay that's a NO NO. My interview was conducted in a bedroom, turned office. Not sure if I wanted to call another employment agency or 911 at that time. Third red flag: so I get a job to "gain experience in a fast face environment" (private sector) and been in the job for more than a year. Sure enough I try Truex again only to be shot down by Bonita. Hahaha. Now she claims her "private sector clients" are looking for candidates with longevity, previously. If you're looking for a job through Truex and have a previous background in government, military, or even long standing 500 fortune company, they don't want you to behind with. PRO TIP: You might as well lie on your resume and interview with them that you previously worked at a start up (low salary pay) for 2 years. This route would have worked better. read more

I was just interviewed by Bonita Jung and was extremely disappointed and shocked by her derogatory questions and remarks. I had to cancel the conversation and withdraw because of her uncomfortable bias. read more

Executive Assistants are in demand! If you are thinking about switching jobs or new to the area, call this company. In my case, I was poached from one company to the next but in between I worked with Vivian Yeong to see what was available, testing the waters per say. Vivian is not just a recruiter. Vivian is an accountability coach, a confidant and a cheerleader all in one! I would happily work with her again. I have her number saved in my phone, always, just in case. Truex is well known in the area so the job recs they have are unique and high level. I always recommend them to anyone that asks. In addition, the founder of Truex, Mary Ann, is a class act (and hilarious) so if you ever get a chance to speak with her, take it! read more

Shelby has been an incredible resource for me. She is quick in her response, transparent, communicative, supportive, kind and just an all around wonderful recruiter. I can't say that enough. I have been on a journey looking for work where I can offer white glove EA service, and this field is definitely competitive making it tough to begin with. However Shelby is amazing at what she does, she is attentive and cares about the candidate and the employer, and an expert at matching companies with candidates. I trust her entirely in finding great positions because she really focuses on what you are looking for without the pressure. With that being said, I was set up with some interviews with great feedback and I felt well guided through the entire process. Each time I felt like I was well informed and prepped by Shelby enough to be confident in the role I was presented with. With that being said, Truex Metier really is the best recruiting agency out there and you will be in great hands! Thank you Shelby for helping me in my journey! I look forward to staying in touch! :)) read more

If I could give Truex Metier, specifically Bonita Jung, more than 5 stars I would. There is no better place than Truex if you are looking for a new admin role. They are the best and there is a reason for their stellar reputation. I was able to accept a new job within 3 weeks at an amazing firm and I can't wait to start. All the available opportunities that were presented to me were great, but when I heard about the one I accepted, I knew I wanted to go for that one specifically, and I got it! A huge part of that was Bonita making sure I was prepared, even with the process moving so quickly and little time to prepare. All the jobs felt tailored to me and what I was looking for, also matching with my salary expectations and experience. Bonita goes the extra mile for you. When I reached out to her that I was ready to get myself out there and find a new job, she started by helping me with tips on how to tailor my resume to the career path I wanted. She also asked me a lot of questions to make sure Truex was providing me with opportunities that I would be interested in. I could see that Truex wanted me to be happy in my new role and for it to be a great fit versus simply finding me the first available opportunity. Truex also helped me prepare for each step in the interview process and they are VERY thorough. I have read other reviews and each one are spot on with my own experience. They take care of everything for you that is in their control. When we were going over my offer, I didn't worry about anything because I knew that Bonita was in my corner. We were always on the same page about what I wanted, so I knew that she would make sure I got what was fair to expect. She knew what was fair to both me and the employer ensuring both sides were happy and starting on the right foot. I also want to note that Bonita has amazing communication skills and gets back to you quickly. I asked a lot of questions and I never felt like I was bothering her. She makes you feel like she really cares and wants what is best for you. She cares about your opinion on each step, including how the interview went, likes/dislikes and if you could realistically see yourself at the company and fitting in with their team. I'm sure she has many clients, but she makes you feel like she is only helping you. She's that good. I could not have had a better experience while seeking a new opportunity and I am very grateful for Truex and Bonita! The entire team is amazing, so if you have anyone at Truex helping you find your next job, you are in the best hands you can be in. read more

I was connected to Shelby at Truex Metier after applying for a role on LinkedIn. I then interviewed with Mary Ann, the owner of Truex Metier and Bonita. I started working with Bonita when I was just browsing around for new opportunities. A few months later, I got laid off and I started reaching out to a few recruiters. The all told me the same answer, "The market is very tough now but I will keep you in mind if anything comes up." Bonita was one of the very few recruiters who actually called me back and got me interviews! She was so helpful throughout the whole process, responsive, very patient with all my questions, made sure I was well prepared to each interview and that I had all the info I needed. I ended up getting a job elsewhere but I have no doubt she will be the first person I will refer anyone/ reach out to myself should I be seeking new opportunities in the future. I enjoyed working with her and would love to cross paths again in the future! read more

I landed an amazing job with the help from Bonita Jung. She was so good at matching skillset, background, and preferences with the perfect companies and walked me through the whole process thoroughly. She was highly professional but yet personable and gave me great personal advice in regards to specific questions I had. Bonita will be helping you getting your next dream role, checking all your boxes! read more

Thuha was exceptionally helpful and flexible in working with me and my crazy schedule! She walked me through every process, explaining everything in detail. I really think that I wouldn't have gotten an offer if it weren't for Thuha. Thank you Shelby for making sure we connected and considering me for the role in the first place :-). read more

I casually applied for a role that I knew wasn't the right fit through Truex Metier, but after speaking with me and learning a bit more about my background and goals, recruiter extraordinaire Bonita matched me with a open position that was much more my speed and ticked all of my boxes. In a few short weeks, I went from testing the waters of my job search to fully hopping onboard with a company that had been in my periphery, but who I didn't know was hiring for someone like me. Bonita made sure I felt confident and supported each step of the way - she addressed each of my concerns, prepped me for potential questions during the interview, and prepared me for different interview scenarios. The Truex Metier team kept communication open and transparent, and through the entire process I felt like they had my best interests at the forefront. It's obvious this team is experienced, empathetic, and, plainly, really good at what they do. I ended up landing the role and the Truex Metier helped me hit my "over the moon" salary - which I don't believe I would have been empowered enough to ask for on my own. It was a seamless experience from start to finish. I cannot recommend them enough to anyone looking for their next career move! read more

If I could give Bonita 10 stars, I would. Bonita reached out to me at the very beginning of my job search- and I am so glad she did. My entire experience with Truex Metier team was amazing, efficient, and rewarding. Bonita found me at the very start of my job search. She immediately gave me options that she thought would interest me and I began interviewing. My first interview with one of her clients was AMAZING. I knew right away that it was the perfect opportunity. I went through the 4 rounds of interviews (and Bonita followed up with me every step of the way) and was given an offer at the end. The process was seamless. I've been at my dream job for about 5 months now and could not be happier. Already I've recommended Bonita and the Truex Metier team to friends and colleagues who are interested in pursuing another job. Thanks again! read more

I had the pleasure of working with Thuha who helped me get an interview and placed into a temporary role at a startup. Thuha has been so great to work with! You can tell she is really invested in helping you be successful and find the right role. She is super responsive and really helped me make sure I could present my best self in my interviews. It was such a refreshing change from other recruiters I've worked with in the past. I have been really impressed by Truex and the candidate experience they have here! They nail the white glove service when it comes to the recruiting agency experience. I would be more than happy to work with them again. read more

What a wonderful experience working with this company. Everyone was incredibly professional and nice. Bonita was an absolute pleasure to work with and will continue to keep her in my data base for the future. I highly recommend this company for your hiring talent. read more

I had the pleasure of working with Thuha and she was absolutely amazing! She made sure to get a thorough understanding of my background and what I was looking for in a role before placing me in my current position. She was super friendly, checked in with me frequently, and made the whole process extremely smooth. I always felt in the loop & well prepared for my interviews thanks to her going above & beyond. I would 1000% recommend Truex Metier (and Thuha!) to anyone looking for a new opportunity. read more

Working with Bonita has been such a wonderful experience. She's very approachable, and a wonderful resource. With the limited information she had about me, she was still able to find me the perfect job with an amazing organization. She was available to help me prep for my interviews and always checked in afterwards. It was such a pleasure to work with her, and I have so much appreciation for all that she does! read more

My Truex Metier journey with Bonita could not have been more wonderful, the process itself was quick and the timing was right. She set me up with a few interviews and I felt well guided through the entire interview/ offer process. Thank you!! read more

Don't waste your time with them. One of their Recruiting Associates messaged me saying my background fits one of their open roles for their client. They asked me to come in for an in-house interview at the agency to further discuss the role. Once I got there, they said by looking at my resume, I was not a good fit. They didn't bother to send my resume to their client. I don't understand why they asked to meet with me if they knew I wasn't a fit for the role. Their process is disorganized and it was a complete waste of time. They essentially took my information to store in their database. Such a scam. read more

Bonita is fabulous; you'll enjoy working with her! She's genuine and does her best to find opportunities that fit your needs. If you're thinking about making a move and want a straight-shooter with great results, definitely connect with Bonita. read more

Bonita led me to the most fulfilling job I have ever had. She took the time to really connect with me and help me through every step of the process. When she found me I was unhappy and unsure about the future. It was so refreshing to see her passion for matching me with my dream job. Having such a skilled recruiter on my side made all the difference. Thanks to her help I have never felt better about my career. Every day I am thankful for the providence that put her in my path. read more

When is search for a new career opportunity, look no further than Truex Metier. I worked with Vivian and was highly impressed with how much she cared . Vivian was dedicated in helping me find the best opportunity and fit for me. She was always highly encouraging and provided great feedback. She placed me in a job that was perfect for me. I also had the chance to meet Mary Ann, she was lovely! Truex is very well known in the Bay Area and always have interesting and exciting career opportunities they are working on. I would definitely use their services again, they're wonderful! read more

It's been such a great experience working with Vivian at Truex Metier. Since the beginning she was very thorough and reassured me what type of roles fit my experience. After meeting with Vivian she helped in identifying my strengths and weaknesses from experience and in preparing for interviews. She very helpful especially during the interview process. It made me feel much less nervous and more confident! Since the beginning she's always been very transparent in letting me know finding a great role will take time. Which I highly appreciated. What I can say is patience is key! Very happy I've been patient and have landed a great opportunity through Vivian! read more

As a recent college graduate, getting into the job market seemed incredibly intimidating and overwhelming. I could not have asked for a better support system than Aisha and Veronica. Aisha took time out of her day to speak with me on the phone for over an hour at one point to help me talk through different career pathways and offer me her professional insights. She also connected me to Veronica in Southern California who has been fantastic in helping me find interviews and preparing me every step of the way. They are really great at listening to your goals and desires for a job and making sure that you have all of the tools you need to find something that works for you. Could not have better things to say about them or recommend them more! read more

This is the group you want to work with if you're looking for a new administrative or operations role. Thuha first messaged me in January 2022, and quickly introduced me to Bonita and Shelby. Over the next couple of months, they presented interesting opportunities. I interviewed with two of Bonita's clients, and she was fantastic to work with -- knowledgable, transparent, and supportive. There was no pressure to continue an interview process or accept an offer; she really wants to make the right match between clients and candidates. I just accepted an offer for a position that was initially presented with the barest of details due to confidentiality requirements, but that's how much trust Bonita instills! I was confident she knew what I was looking for, took the interview, and am super excited to start in a couple weeks. Highly recommend Bonita and the Truex team. read more

Bonita is the best!! She helped prep me for every interview, went over hard questions with me so I knew the best format to answer them if I was asked. She didn't pressure me to accept any interview or offer and truly was a guide during this exhausting but exciting process. I appreciate that Bonita is a straight shooter, and genuinely cares about her candidates. She fully listened to what I was looking for, and was transparent with me the whole way through! Thanks to her help, I am now in a growth position at an amazing company and am so happy! Thank you Bonita!! read more

Bonita and all of the ladies from Truex Metier have been amazing to partner with. My friend landed her dream job through Truex Metier & recommended me to Bonita. Bonita took the time to understand my needs/ wants in my next job/ career. I couldn't be more thankful for how helpful Bonita has been throughout the whole interview process. She only brought me roles that were exactly what I explained I wanted & took the time to help me before interviewing with the companies. I landed an amazing job & a huge thank you to Bonita for making that happen!! You are a rockstar! read more

If you need a job the Truex Metier team will get there. they are so good at what they do. and they are a great advocate for the job searchers. read more

I really enjoyed working with Bonita at Truex Metier. From the initial contact to finalizing the job offer, Bonita was really helpful. The best recruiter I have worked with! read more

Vivian Yeong is a gem in the world of recruiters, someone who truly invests her enthusiasm and dedication into finding you that amazing job that you hope is out there waiting for you. She is driven yet kind, and hones in on your skills, maturity, professionalism and capabilities to match you up with the perfect role in Silicon Valley. I felt her cheering me on during the interviews and it was truly reassuring to have her support alongside me throughout the process. I loved catching up with her afterwards for the follow-up's and I always came away learning something new about myself. She's a wonderful person who is great at communicating and always there for you. The jobs were all top-notch and it was just a matter of finding the 'glass slipper' role. Stick with her and you too can find that dream job! read more

Truex Metier is a top notch company, specifically Bonita Jung. She is welcoming, open, and honest. She took her time getting to know me and what I was looking for. She is a great coach and helps with the prep that comes with interviewing. Event the first job didn't work out she kept in touch and ended up finding the perfect role for me through an old friend. She is fantastic and it was such a pleasure working with her. I would do it again but I love my current role and company. read more

I have worked with Bonita on a few interview loops now. I have never worked with a recruiter more passionate and helpful. She took the time to get to know me, what I was looking for and understand I didn't want to take a job to take a job. She was patient, responsive and helpful providing feedback but also a sounding board as I was making a decision. She will now be my go to recruiter I refer all my EA friends to! I hope to not have to use her again after accepting a new role but do hope we will cross paths again! read more

Truex was the pivoting point and start to my career. Bonita went above and beyond her position as a recruiter to help me land a job. Her expertise taught me how to properly search and prep for interviews. She was also personable and boosted my confidence by giving insight on what hiring managers expect from their candidates. Be aware that YOU are the key factor in all of this success. Finding that dream job will not happen if you think the recruiters should do all the work. Truex can offer a library of knowledge. But without your time and efforts in the process, the magic will not happen! I highly recommend this agency for anyone who is serious in taking their career to the next level. Be ready for transparency, honesty and guidance like no other. Mary Ann, Bonita and her wonderful team truly know the industry like the back of their hands. I'm grateful for the experience and opportunities Truex has given me. I can rest easy knowing that they will have my back when it's time to find that next dream job in the future. read more

Phenomenal!!!... Outstanding!!!... Incredible!!!... I could go on and on about the team at Truex Metier... But I won't... only long enough to say that as a novice to the whole recruiting process I was incredibly unsure of how it worked and how I would fit into it; but it is safe to say that after using the services at Truex I will never go back to job hunting the same way. I had the pleasure of working with Valentina and Helen at Truex and let me tell you they really care about their candidates, not just in placing you at a "job" but essentially finding you the perfect match. As I approached a junction in my career I knew I was ready to move on but I wasn't entirely sure how to make the jump that would allow me personal and professional growth. Truex assessed my needs and desires for potential growth and placed me with a career that allowed for both. If you are looking for a run of the mill agency than this is not it!!!!! The whole team at Treux works diligently to prepare you for your placement and goes the extra mile to make sure you are happy in your new professional "home". Not only is Valentina warm and inviting but she genuinely cares about her candidates and makes you feel right at home during the process. She has set the standard for all other recruiters for me and I could not be happier to provide her and her whole team with a glowing recommendation. I have thoroughly enjoyed my experience with the whole Truex team and would recommend them to any professional searching the job market! read more
