Work With Us

How did we help you succeed?

1. Successfully screening and narrowing the large (50+) pipeline of applicants that came to us. Ultimately, we only directly interfaced with a total of 7 applicants, which freed up an incredible amount of time for our team.

2. Very accurate initial assessments of the strengths and weaknesses of the candidates that were advanced to us. That seems to me to be a reflection of your team’s inherent expertise, but also your grasp of what we as an organization were looking for in a leader.

~Vivek Ramakrishnan, One City Schools
