Testimonials

Nigel G, Master Grower

Namita from CanMar Recruitment is a standing reproach to recruiting and talent acquisition. It takes talent to find it; better yet, professionalism to keep it. She is the first recommendation I have for companies and people. Our paths crossed first some three years ago – at the birth of the nascent Cannabis industry. Since then, as our careers have grown, so has her reputation and heuristics in coaching, mentoring, and advising. She has placed many great candidates in dream positions: myself included through CanMar recently. Namita and the team at CM are at the vanguard of recruitment – I could not recommend them enough.

Lisa reached out to me with the perfect career opportunity, and her timing couldn’t have been any better! Even with the tight timeline, she was able to coordinate, mediate, and organize the hiring and on-boarding process with my new employer! She is extremely professional, engaging and a true expert in her field! Thank you CanMar; I would highly recommend anyone wanting to get into the industry to work with the team.

Ketan K, Directory of Quality Assurance

I want to give a big shout out to CanMar Recruitment once again for presenting me with an excellent career opportunity. My recruitment partner for this process was Namita Badiyal. Namita has been amazing throughout the recruitment process. She is very engaging, supportive and believes in building relationships. I cannot thank her enough for believing in me and for helping me start a new chapter of my professional career. I would not hesitate to recommend CanMar Recruitment for anyone looking to kickstart a new career in the cannabis industry.

Sean H, QA Associate

I would like to thank all of you at CanMar Recruitment very much for your services throughout the entire process of my recent job search. It wasn’t easy as the COVID-19 situation had just happened while I was starting to look for employment. The help provided from your team, especially my recruiter ‘Namita Badyal’ was top notch. Namita was a great help, kind, encouraging and always there to answer any questions. She even reached out on her own accord to check in and see how I was making out at various stages throughout the process, which means a lot to me. In fact, we still keep in contact to this day and will continue to do so into the future. I would highly recommend contacting the CanMar team and Namita to anyone looking for a role in the cannabis industry.

None of CanMar’s (Tim’s) calls in this whole recruitment process made me stress a bit because they make it so easy for a person to open up; talk and share as it is required from a candidate perspective. There is a lot always to talk about and I never felt like I am talking to a recruiter. It was so easy and convenient like I could call or text any time and tell what’s going on. Overall. You guys are just amazing. Really acknowledge and appreciate for whatever you did. Can’t thank you enough CanMar Recruitment.

Vishwa, Quality Control Technician

Getting a job in a pharmaceutical company is very difficult these days, especially if you don’t have many years of work experience. With an aspiration to work in the Quality Control environment, and with one year of work experience, I was trying to reach out to many companies and was turned down from everyone. With no proper person to guide, I was demotivated and anxious about the future. But then I came across CanMar recruitment’s advertisement regarding a Quality Control position and after applying, Kelli Cera contacted me and stared explaining to me about the company and CanMar’s role in finding talent for the Medical Marijuana industry. She was very friendly, motivating and was confident that my skills would land me a good position in the Quality Control department for their client. Her suggestions and tips made me prepare well for the interview and helped me know what to expect during the process.

The interview with CanMar’ Client and my going-to-be-employer was a success and Kelli told me that they were very pleased with my responses and were willing to hire me as a Quality Control Technician. I was thrilled on hearing that and I genuinely feel that I wouldn’t have done a better job on the interview without the motivation, help and support provided by the CanMar team. I am going to start work from Oct 1st and am very much excited to work with new people and establish a name for myself. I would definitely recommend anyone to CanMar recruitment, if they are willing to enter the Medical Marijuana industry and start their career. I wish CanMar all the very best with their work and would hope to see them grow to greater heights someday!
