About us

NeoHire is a specialized, boutique recruiting agency that focuses exclusively on emerging growth and venture backed companies technology and online media companies.


We are most widely known for our core competency and specialization in helping startups transition from inception to multi-faceted organizations.


NeoHire was founded in 2006 in Santa Monica, California.  Initially, the company was a side project by entrepreneurs brothers, Josh and Jason Stomel.  They were already known in the local tech scene as “connectors” and a go-to source for industry relevant talent.  Friends and colleagues would routinely inquire about contingency search services, however, both Josh and Jason did not have the resources to give the searches the attention they deserve.  They were both working internally for local internet startups, helping their respective organizations build from inception to 150+ employees.  In early 2006, they decided that they would rather help several companies with their growth, rather than just one AT A TIME.


NeoHire is unlike all recruiting firms out there.  The majority of our clientele is derived from referrals,  word of mouth, and our carefully matriculated relationships.   NeoHire is now a household name in the technology and startup community, and an award-winning agency.


Besides talent, clients of NeoHire leverage our close-knit network for strategic introductions, business partnerships, and industry related intelligence.
NeoHire retains close relations with the Venture Capital community and can assist with various fundraising efforts.
