Jason Van Voorhis
Jason Van Voorhis is CEO and Founder of V3 Talent Partners Inc. and believes in changing the way agencies are viewed in the tech industry.
As Head of Engineering Recruiting for Snap Inc., Jason was deeply concerned with how agencies “spray and pray” the market and lacked basic fundamentals to recruiting. V3 is the evolution of that bad practice. While at Snap, Jason scaled engineering from 30 to 1500 people, and managed Diversity & Inclusion, University Programs, and was involved with Leadership hiring and M&A research.
Prior to Snap Inc., Jason worked at Google hiring Software Engineers across all Google’s key product areas as well as managing the integration of Nest M&A talent acquisition strategy. He considers Google and Snap Inc. his Ph.D. in recruiting.
In his spare time, Jason enjoys taking his dog Toby to the park, taking friends fishing around the Catalina Islands, getting his butt kicked at Jiu-Jitsu, and saying YES to things that put him far outside his comfort zone. Jason embodies authenticity, vulnerability, and being a loving person. These are core values he brought to V3 that have led to successful partnerships throughout his career.
