Haftan Eckholdt, PhD, MS
Chief Data Officer & Chief Science Officer at Understood.org (former Senior Vice President of Data Science at Audible/Amazon, and former Senior Director of Science at AIG)
"Adrian is able to form relationships with candidates. He can understand the fit for a role, which is a more common requirement for the recruiters. He also understands a role's fit in their lives and careers. This is less common, and a very real and powerful capability. That's why I have relied on Adrian for sourcing data scientists for me at places like AIG and Amazon."
Dr. Graham Giller
CEO Giller Investments (New Jersey), LLC (former Chief Data Scientist JP Morgan, and Head of Primary Research Deutsche Bank)
"I've worked with Adrian for many years and have always found him to be genuinely interested in the success of my ventures and supportive of the need to find and hire high quality scientists and engineers for data driven roles. I would not hesitate to recommend Hudson Modeling."
William Keithler
Senior Director, Business Strategy, AIG Investments (former Business Manager, AIG Science)
"Many Recruiters for Data Science roles simply flood your inbox with resumes that loosely match the technical specs of a job description. Adrian takes the time to go further, digging deep on both an organization's culture and a Candidate's latent potential to find great matches. It is a pleasure to work with him."
Abhishek Desai
Digital Technology & Innovations, Innovation Delivery, Wells Fargo (former AIG Sciences and Lord Abbott)
"Adrian is a dear and trusted guide to me in my journey through the AI and ML space. His guidance was critical for me and kept me anchored and focused throughout my career searches. His depth, coaching and understanding in helping me navigate are a testament to the time, labor and effort he put into helping me develop and broaden and deepen my understanding both in the business space and the technical realm."
Mohammed Ahmed
Technical Recruiting Manager, Dotdash (former Beeswax, GroupM, and Nielsen)
"Adrian is a true talent acquisition partner and one of the most effective Recruiters I have met. His relationship with Candidates is unmatched and I have seen it time and time again as he has helped me recruit for tough Data Science and Machine Learning roles throughout the last few years. He took the time to build our Client relationships, understood our needs before reaching out to Candidates, and was transparent through and through. I could not recommend anyone more qualified or effective than him."
