Jordan Mazer

“As a peer who became my mentor and then manager, I can say unequivocally that Jordan is whom I credit for the majority of my professional development. Jordan is without a doubt one of the hardest working and passionate colleagues I have ever worked with. Jordan channels his passion into a work ethic that is unmatched. His professional transition from a best-in-class recruiter to a manager, and then to a manager of managers could not have been possible without a superhuman ability to self-improve. I've often told Jordan that I barely recognize him compared to the colleague I had three years ago. Jordan derives his legitimacy as a manager of recruiters through his personal experience in the role. When Jordan and I started, he was the Recruiter for the R&D team and quickly established himself as one of the highest performing recruiters in the company. In addition, he was admired as an SME and partner to his stakeholder group. Even though it was not his responsibility, Jordan was always available for help and guidance. Jordan derives his legitimacy as a manager of managers through his mastery of stakeholder management. I have no doubts that leadership sees Jordan as the most trusted person in Riot's recruiting org. He has earned this spot by bringing visibility to where there none (removing the "black box" that recruiting can often be to stakeholders). Jordan has always been a champion of reporting "what's going on." His weekly reports would give an honest accounting of where the team stood on progress towards goals. Jordan was always quick to own mistakes and celebrate successes of individual team members (making this a culture/expectation of our whole team). As my manager, Jordan has given me more constructive and actionable feedback than any other person. His delivery and ability to walk you through the situation was what made it exceptional. Jordan is invested in the people that he works with and wanted us all to get better. Jordan forced you to grow but had the EQ to know when you needed a high five too. Even though I am no longer at Riot, Jordan remains a "go-to" for help and advice. I cannot say enough good things about the guy, and I count myself as lucky to have worked with him. 10/10 would work with again (and probably will at some point XD).”

“Where to start. I joined Scopely in June of 2014 when he was the sole recruiter holding down the fort for a company that was rapidly growing. He was able to keep the ship afloat and even more impressive, keep it going in the right direction. He has an unparalleled work ethic and insatiable thirst for knowledge about every facet of the company and roles he is representing. When you hire Jordan you can be sure of two things, he will work tirelessly to be the most successful he can be (if that means 12 hr days and weekends so be it) and he will represent the company with a level in knowledge and passion severely lacking in the recruiting field as a whole these days. Oh an most importantly, he can close with the best of them. A great team member and a great example of what a recruiter should be. I would be lucky to work with him again. ”
