AI-polished resumes are flooding your inbox. Your engineering team is burning out covering gaps. And the best senior engineers? They're not even on the boards (or LinkedIn).
Let's figure this out together →Job boards blast your listing to everyone with a pulse (and a few bots without one). AI tools polish every resume until they all look perfect. Your hiring manager is burning 20 hours a week on interviews that go nowhere, and the seat is still empty.
Senior engineers move through relationships, not algorithms. Someone they trust texts them and says, "I know someone you should meet." That's how it works. Mirror has 25 years of those relationships. Engineers as friends who pick up when we call.
Skip the formal job description. Tell us what this person really needs to do on day one. What's the team and culture like? What's keeping you up at night? The more honest you are, the better we match.
Most of the engineers we reach aren't job hunting. They're happy where they are. But they pick up when Brian calls because they trust him. We tell them your story the way it deserves to be told.
Within 72 hours, you'll meet a small group of people we've personally vetted and believe in. Not a stack of resumes. Real introductions, with our honest take on each one.
"Brian is by far the best recruiter I've worked with. I've been at the same company now for over 5 years, moving from Senior Rails Engineer to Director of Engineering. As a manager I can say without hesitation that the best members of my team are the ones that have come through Brian and Mirror Placement, and we continue to count on him for top notch talent whenever we're hiring."
"Brian helped me get a great position at a reputable, profitable company with a great engineering culture. What sets Brian's company apart is that they understand tech and business and aren't just trying to churn through engineers. They take the time and effort to find a good mutual fit for the long term."
"Prior to working with Brian I'd only have negative experiences working with 3rd party recruiters. Generally speaking they didn't seem to understand the position they were trying to fill, basically just looking at buzzwords on resumes and matching them to job descriptions. From my experience, Brian understands the different technologies and what sort of candidates companies are looking for."
"With a business focused primarily on one technology stack, we can talk intelligently about my background and goals without needing to 'dumb down' the discussion or feel like the person on the other end of the line is simply throwing back buzzwords."
"The best engineers don't apply to jobs. They get a text from someone they trust. It's not about searching and profiles. It's about knowing people well enough to know when something is right for them."Brian Mariani, Founder @ Mirror
