"I wanted to say 'thank you' and reinforce that we think you have exceeded expectations so far on these 2 critical searches.

I have a very high bar for recruiters, and we are not an easy client, but you have been “As Advertised” from John.  Your rigor around the process, assessment skills, support on JDs, making our jobs easier, not harder, excellent attention to detail, and most of all, delivering well-prepared quality candidates that match the profile have been on point. As an additional point of differentiation from other firms,  the diversity of your candidate pool has been especially impressive.

I have never sent a note like this to any firm or recruiter, but it is well deserved.  A+ job by you and your team, and I wanted to say “thank you” for the dedication and support in the middle of this search.  I know each of these searches is a journey with twists and turns, and you have handled the ups, downs, and surprises very well. As I said, I have been impressed with your performance.

"Lisa and Marc-Allen Associates were extremely helpful and provided tremendous value in my most recent job search. Her professionalism, responsiveness and support during the entire process was by far the best search experience of my career.
