My other head hunter was not very professional, timely in communications, and did not seem to care about my future and interests - it was obvious that he wanted to get me a job to get his commission.

Kevin Mednick - "It was a pleasure to work with Kevin and the entire staff at Klein Hersh. For many years I was reluctant to make use of recruiting services, but Kevin contacted me just as I was laid off from Thomson Reuters.

I would say to anyone in this industry, if you get a phone call from Kevin, listen to him!" - Ron Ladley
Michael Litten - Michael is an extraordinary recruiting professional and one of the few I have consistently remained connected with for about 2 years.

Michael is always prepared with detailed information about each opportunity presented. He is extremely organized and very reliable.

On the recruiting side, Michael has identified well-qualified candidates across the spectrum of skills, and has placed several candidates within our growing group and other cross-functional teams who have made positive with great success on our business.”

Dan Sherwood - "Dan - I just wanted to send a thank-you for your call and time today. I was very impressed by your professionalism and dedication. I can't tell you how many recruiters have called me since my unemployment and how disappointing many of them have been in their professionalism and follow-through.
I have worked with recruiters in previous years and found them to be very professional. Lately, I was beginning to think they were a "dying breed." You have restored my faith!
I am looking forward to my interview tomorrow and will call you as soon as that is completed (I am thinking with good news!)." - Faye

President/CEO, TramaCure, Inc.
“I have worked with dozens of recruiters and by far the experience with Klein Hersh was the most seamless and successful. They minimized the time I needed to spend describing my staffing needs by asking precise and targeted questions. They made hundreds of contacts and narrowed the pool I needed to screen to a handful. Klein Hersh facilitated the interview process and provided honest and balanced evaluations of the candidate’s fit with our organization. From start to finish, it took only one month to hire a Product Manager with direct industry experience. I highly recommend this team and would definitely work with Klein Hersh again for our future staffing needs.”
