I have had the best experience working with Nickie Lynch from Hunter Philips Executive Search.

The correspondence was always very clear, straightforward and professional, which helped me from the very beginning to get a good understanding of a position and a company and made me comfortable in continuing with interviews after each step. Nickie was easy to reach during the whole process and ensured that it goes efficiently, feedback is given on time, I am updated on the status of the process and would answer any of the questions I had, which was very valuable, considering I have been in other processes in parallel. Regular conversations with her also helped me to reflect on the most important aspects of a position and if the company matches them, this allowed me to be open, raise potential concerns and in the end to be sure that the position would be a good fit for me and I would match what is needed for the role. I wouldn't hesitate and would definitely work with Nickie again in the future!

Summer had a deep understanding of my qualifications and goals, and I went into interviews knowing exactly what the company was looking for.

I found my current position with Summer’s help and couldn’t be happier with the process. She was very forthcoming and took the time to truly understand my preferences and needs. Unlike other headhunters, where I often felt my CV was simply forwarded with minor cosmetic changes, Summer prepared both sides thoroughly. She had a deep understanding of my qualifications and goals, and I went into interviews knowing exactly what the company was looking for. This made the interviews far more focused and productive, allowing us to dive straight into the details. I highly recommend working with her.
