What People Are Saying

“Melissa is a winner! I was looking for a new role that was not exactly related to my past experience, and she took the time to get to know me and the type of position that I desired. It is clear that she has the right instincts, and she did a wonderful job of keeping me informed throughout the search and interview process. I give Melissa my highest recommendation without reservation.”

- Rod Herrell, Associate Director, Senior Corporate Counsel
Sandoz, Inc.

“One of Melissa’s greatest strengths is she takes the time to listen – to her candidates and her clients. By listening carefully and asking the right questions throughout the process, Melissa gains a thorough understanding of her clients’ needs and her candidates’ objectives and that is the mark of a true professional in the recruiting field. She also works hard – harder than anyone I’ve encountered in legal recruiting – and makes herself available 24/7 for follow-up, which is an essential part of the search process. Melissa did a terrific job for me and I’ve recommended and will continue to recommend her as the best professional I have encountered in the field.”

- John Corbett, Assistant General Counsel
Managed Health Care Associates, Inc.

“David is an incredible professional who helped me think through not only search options for my company but also my own career. I would recommend him from either the employer or employee side. He is knowledgeable, honest, quick-moving and thoughtful in his approach.”
