About Calvin Group

Calvin Group is a tech recruiting firm that acts as an agent for candidates, much as sports stars and actors have representatives working on their behalf. Matt Alling started it in 2008 after leaving a corporate job, and in 2014 the firm reshaped itself around representing technology talent directly.

Services

  • Job matching: sourcing roles relevant to each candidate using its own approach, called the Calvin Method.
  • Interview preparation: advice and inside knowledge to help candidates get ready for interviews.
  • Offer negotiation: negotiating pay and other terms of an offer for the candidate.
  • CV submission: candidates can send in a CV to be considered.

Who it works with

It places technology professionals such as software, systems and iOS engineers and creative technology leads, with past placements at studios, networking firms, universities and agencies. A 2012 acquisition of Arsenal Recruiting extended its reach to the San Francisco Bay Area.
