      I applied for an SEO Specialist position and received a rejection email without any interview or initial discussion. While I understand that companies receive many applications, it would be helpful for candidates to receive more transparency regarding the selection process and the key qualifications being prioritized. I appreciate the response but was disappointed not to have the opportunity to discuss my experience and skills.

      Perhaps there are other things they do well. We hired 829 to build our website & it was by far one of the most ridiculous experiences I’ve ever faced. Staff was incompetent & condescending for good measure. They took a year and change to deliver a site that is horrifyingly unstable. Horrible.Edit: so many 5 star reviews should make one suspicious. They gave me more attention in an effort to get me to delete this review than when we genuinely needed it. Really horrible organization and I use my experience with them often as a cautionary tale. To recap: 829 offered services they were unqualified to deliver, overcharged for those and spent more time trying to upsell and pad their team with as many warm bodies as they could charge us for. Still salty about it…

      Our team chose 829 after interviewing many agencies for the complete rebrand, new website build, SEO improvements, and PR guidance and strategy. Collaborating on the design of the website was surprisingly productive, we needed one or two additional rounds then was first planned and we ended up with a design we all agreed delivered on the requested notes. From brand to website, clean and fresh aesthetic. Our SEO performance was immediately light years improved and continued to grow. The team brought excellent ideas forward and worked well with our opinionated colleagues with clear vision and preferences. I personally enjoyed the 829 staff assigned to our projects and appreciated the ease of working with them through delivery and post delivery management. I would hire them again and I would recommend them without hesitation.

      Firecracker PR formulated and executed a complete communications plan to support the launch of our AGT Hybrid Greenhouse. Because this product launch was unlike anything else on the market, we were seeking an agency that could help us create the messaging and positioning from the ground up. Firecracker exceeded our expectations, helping us land key articles in outlets such as International Business Times. They also played a significant role is the AGT Greenhouse being named a Gold Edison Award winner. Firecracker also managed our social media, web copy and search engine optimization strategies.
