TESTIMONIALS
“Jim has recruited for me since 2004, first as a direct report, and then as a third-party recruiter at two other companies. He is an exceptional recruiter because he consistently earns my TRUST, and the TRUST of hiring managers, HR business partners, and candidates, and he delivers results with SPEED and VALUE.”
“Jim recruited most of the commercial and technical positions located outside the USA for my company from 2011 to 2016 when the company was spun off of the parent company. We relied on Jim like he was an employee. His commitment, trustworthiness, and results make him someone I continue to partner with. I recently engaged Jim to lead the talent management component of an acquisition project for my Private Equity firm.”
“Jim has been an exceptional partner with our organization; he took the time to understand our organization and needs to be able to provide us with candidates who were clear fits for our needs, finding candidates for high-level domestic and international roles. He went above and beyond to ensure that both my company, and our candidates, were cared for. If you are seeking a partner who is committed, responsive, and effective–I highly recommend Jim.”
“Jim’s commitment, trustworthiness, and results make him someone I continue to partner with. He has completed over 60 searches in the Americas, Europe, and Asia/Pacific regions for my previous company; and I recently engaged Jim to lead the talent management component of an acquisition project for a Private Equity firm.”
