Being introduced to Ian Feeney is one of the best things that has happened to me in my career. In my first call with Ian, he was able to understand my priorities and motivations, clearly explain his methodology, and identify 2-3 target companies that would be a good fit. I have worked with many recruiters before, but never have I come across anyone with such a strong philosophy and winning playbook. Within 15 days of meeting Ian, I had an offer in hand!!! I am now in the second week of my new career at an early-stage startup, and I could not be happier!

When I was trying to figure out what I wanted to do after graduation, I struggled to find my direction and didn’t have many leads. Thankfully, I was put into contact with Cannon through a close connection. Cannon introduced me to startup tech sales — a field where I would be utilizing many of the skills I learned playing sports at Middlebury, and they helped me immediately gain meaningful traction in my job search. The team answered any questions I could come up with (and trust me, I had a lot).

Working with Cannon was the best decision I could have made for my career. Transitioning from management consulting to tech start-ups felt simple and effortless with the guidance, connections, and preparation TCP provided for me. Ian and the team took the time to understand what I was seeking in a company and culture, trained me in the new industry, and checked-in every time there was a new discovery or update. I could not be more grateful for my placement at FireHydrant after less than two weeks, thanks to Cannon! I am looking forward to continuing my relationship with TCP and would recommend them to anyone seeking experience in the start-up world!

As someone who was interested in entrepreneurship during my time at Wesleyan, I wanted to find a job in which I was helping build a company from the ground up. The Cannon Project was the best thing that happened to me during my job search. I was interviewing at multiple growth-stage start-ups and they helped me land the job I have now. Simply put: trust The Cannon Project.
