Client Testimonials

"Not only were you the Partner on the front end of the search, but you were engaged throughout the entire process and even continue to follow up with Jack and me at regular intervals since his hire to make sure there is a long-term fit; this past any guarantees, which is noticed and appreciated. You were able to execute a nationwide campaign in a very specific field and brought us several great candidates.

I think it was our regular communication, open research discussions and partnership throughout the search that allowed us to conduct such an aggressive nationwide effort and still conclude the search in less than 100 days. I look forward to working with you and the CarterBaldwin team in the future."

"You took the time to meet with myself and my team to understand not only the requirements of the position, but the group dynamic which was very important to our success. The timeline of the search was expedient which met the needs of our business/industry functions.

I am happy to say that this individual has been a great addition to our team and is fitting in very well. I certainly would not hesitate to recommend CarterBaldwin to anyone who needs to conduct an executive search."

I appreciate your work on our behalf and will gladly serve as a reference to your future clients."

When we initiated our engagement with CarterBaldwin, we knew that we had significant needs in several key areas of our ministry. We also recognized that your reputation and core competencies in corporate search could bring a proven process and successful results to help us effectively fill these positions with just the right people. You and your team capably managed multiple searches on a national basis. Your communication and reporting were professional, prompt and valuable, and complex scheduling of interviews was coordinated seamlessly between our teams.

Your commitment to our best interests has been obvious from the beginning and we are glad to have partnered with CarterBaldwin.

I was very impressed with the level of professionalism and expertise that CarterBaldwin displayed during this search. You were able to quickly learn about the requirements of the position and to unearth candidates from various related industries that were well qualified. In addition, your attention to detail, coupled with your drive for urgency, helped us complete the hiring process within tight timeframes.

I have to commend you on the speed and accuracy of the learning process and more importantly the professionalism and quality of candidates. You made it a “difficult” choice and in the end I could have hired all three of the candidates to fill the president’s role for our Food Service company.

The litmus test for the success is repeat business and as such we have engaged you for another president’s position within our subsidiary.

Thanks for your due diligence, your sense of urgency and the end result.

I want to take this opportunity to recognize your exceptional effort to find the “right” person for our organization. I have personally worked with many professional executive search firms over the past 20 years. The experience we have had working with you and your team at CarterBaldwin has been outstanding. Your focus on understanding our company’s culture and the drivers for a successful person within our team allowed you to put a number of qualified candidates in front of us.

Thank you for a job very well executed and a search very well done. You have exceeded our expectations in partnering with our management team throughout the entire search process.

Your efforts to be certain that we were prepared for interviews, and even offering your offices as an interview location, all contributed to a seamless interview process, and your assistance in negotiating a final, somewhat complex offer, contributed to a successful hire of our number one candidate.

Your performance on our search was as good as I have experienced in my dealings with executive recruiters. Your proactive communication included progress updates and activity reports that kept us in the loop. Each of the candidates you presented was highly qualified, and we frankly had a tough time choosing among the finalists. All the candidates had very good things to say about you and your team. We are very pleased with our hire and he has already hit the ground running.

Thank you for a job very well done.

Within six weeks of launching our recent search, you and your team at CarterBaldwin presented us with a slate of four candidates, each of which was well qualified from both a cultural and skill-set perspective. We worked closely with you to narrow our search to a finalist who joined CheckFree a couple of weeks ago, and is already focused on his new role.

Thank you very much for your clear process, your concern for our interests and your ability to deliver on your early promises.

Before working with CarterBaldwin, we had a very difficult time with traditional search methods. However, the methodical and thorough approach that your team took to provide just the right candidates was extremely impressive and effective.

Your team flawlessly managed the search process and the inter-company communications and scheduling associated with interviews. We interviewed four candidates and sincerely struggled to select between multiple, highly qualified, candidates. To some extent, you found four “needles” and we could have easily hired any one of them.

Thank you for a critical search done very well.

Your counsel was very helpful as we established our paradigm of leadership and worked through titles and evaluated various candidates. We interviewed four candidates and clearly had a very tough decision to make among highly qualified candidates. Each person not only exemplified generosity, but each was able to succinctly articulate their vision for God’s plan in their future life, career and ministry. Moreover, every candidate was unusually well qualified from an organizational leadership perspective.

We are very excited about the end result.

Thank you for your excellent work on our behalf.

You gave us a great selection of highly qualified individuals and made the process happen smoothly and effectively.

Because of the perspective, knowledge and experience that you brought to the table, we were able essentially count CarterBaldwin as a business partner who understood the nuances of our strategy and delegate a critically important function to you while we continued to focus on current initiatives.

We were able to selectively pick from the slate to choose the one most suited for our culture and our mission. I can’t stress enough how valuably different this was from traditional hiring experiences and I know that we will be turning to you again in the future as we reach those milestones that allow us to expand our team here at IPG.

From the moment that we engaged CarterBaldwin to conduct this search, I was extremely impressed with the professionalism and willingness to learn about InterContinental Hotels Group and the Regional SVP, Diversity position in profound details.

Through this collaborative approach we were able to proactively address all concerns with the search, which lead to one of the easiest searches I have ever conducted.

Your efforts in providing a strong candidate list demonstrated you and your firm’s capabilities in insuring that the candidates matched our requirements.

Needless to say, there are many firms which provide such services, but few can deliver the value that you demonstrated in performing the work on our behalf.

Such a process can be time consuming, and your efforts insured that our time was maximized and that we were able to execute quickly.

You have been able to give us personalized service – taking the time to understand our vision and strategy in order to place the ideal candidate. We have the utmost confidence that you have the knowledge and ability to fill our positions with just the right person – the one who will not only fit our culture, but also contribute to our future growth and success. Thank you for doing such a great job for us. We look forward to working with you on future searches.

As you know, I have worked with many executive search firms throughout my career and I appreciate your personalized commitment to the success of every search. One every occasion, I have been pleased that all of the candidates were hand selected and recruited for our particular needs and culture.

I look forward to working with you and your team again soon.

You presented four candidates for me to interview and we ended up hiring three. Our team is dramatically changed and with our new VP of Marketing for our Telecom Solutions Division, our new SVP of Worldwide Sales and support and with our new Chief Marketing Officer, we are truly well poised to accomplish our future.
