Carbon 3 Recruiting: From Humble Beginnings to Strong Success

It was through the encouragement of my clients back in the day, that I started Carbon Three in 2008 now known as Carbon 3 Recruiting , which was at the beginning of the major economic downturn. Had it not been for them planting the seed and their continuous encouragement, I may not have taken that first step and I will be forever grateful to them. I started with a laptop, pad of paper, a pen and my phone. The first year wasn’t easy.


Due to noncompete stipulations, I was forced to move in with my mom for the first year. We created a desk with a slab of formica in her laundry/pantry nook, which also housed the dog bowls and dog food. I remember sitting at this desk with the washer and dryer going at full speed making calls to CEOs. Regardless of the circumstances, the bad economy and the inconvenient office environment, I was determined to be make it work. There have been many ups and downs and learning experiences but eleven years later the company is going strong. If you have the grit, vision and determination, you can achieve anything you want.
