The Cambridge Don
About
When you cut through the usual crowds around 96th and Lexington, this stretch of 1st Avenue keeps a lower profile. The Cambridge Don, an employment agency, sits quietly at 1732 1st Ave #2, a discreet second-floor space above the sidewalk traffic. The address feels right at home on a block where neighborhood regulars come and go without fanfare, and job-seekers slip in just as unobtrusively.
They concentrate on placement for mid-career roles across finance, nonprofit management, and higher-ed administration. Résumés circulate to employers who prize specific skill sets rather than generic credentials. The conversations stay focused on contract, full-time, or project-based matches without the usual detours.
The Cambridge Don pairs candidates with gigs in data analysis, grant writing, human resources consulting, and budget oversight. Each introduction hinges on what employers actually need day-to-day; the listings rarely sit on a board for long. When the fit is right, a candidate walks out with more than a handshake.
Drop into the map ahead of time (directions here) so the (856) 295-1600 call feels like a quick confirm rather than an unknown step.
