Recommendations
What clients say about working with me.
A few words from people I've partnered with to build teams, solve hiring challenges and deliver successful outcomes.
Ivan is the kind of partner you actually want to work with. Responsive, sharp, and easy to work with. He took the time to understand our priorities and challenges before jumping to solutions, and that made all the difference. He brought professionalism and attention to detail to everything we worked on together, and it showed in the outcomes. I never had to chase him down or wonder where things stood. If you're looking for someone who's trustworthy, collaborative, and genuinely committed to delivering a good experience, I would strongly recommend to partner with Ivan.

Portfolio Strategy and Solution Delivery Director @ Pfizer
One of the things I appreciated most about working with Ivan was that he made hiring feel easier. He quickly understood what we were trying to achieve, asked the right questions, and filtered out the noise so we could focus on making good decisions. I always felt confident that he had our best interests in mind, and he consistently followed through on what he said he’d do. Having someone who takes ownership, keeps things moving, and genuinely cares about the outcome is rare. I’d happily recommend Ivan to anyone looking for a trusted hiring partner.

About
I've seen the talent industry from both sides of the table
For more than six years, I’ve helped companies build technical teams, deliver complex projects, and solve hiring challenges in a competitive global market.
Before founding Sikosek Consulting, I worked with organizations ranging from high-growth startups to Fortune 500 enterprises, including Pfizer, Volvo, and AMN Healthcare. Along the way, I contributed to more than 150 successful talent placements and managed delivery initiatives across software engineering, data, cloud, product, and design.
Having worked across candidate assessment, enterprise delivery, account management, sales, and client success, I gained a unique perspective on how the talent industry operates. It taught me a simple lesson: clients should be paying for great talent, not layers of overhead and unnecessary complexity.
That’s why I built Sikosek Consulting a founder-led business connecting companies with exceptional Serbian talent through a simple model: full-time professionals, one monthly invoice, and a long-term partnership built on trust, quality, and common sense.
