Dear Mr. Cahill,
I have recently had the pleasure of working with your Account Executive, Rita Mauro, during which time we developed an excellent rapport. She was extremely insightful in understanding my goals in working towards a possible placement for employment, coupled with a clear knowledge of my capabilities and experience. Although I ultimately did not accept the employment opportunity offered to me at this time, I found Ms. Mauro to be a superb recruiter. She brings knowledge, dedication and a delightful personality to her strong efforts in handling an individuals career path and I believe that she is an extreme asset to Hobson Associates. I feel free to highly recommend her services to those in need and I would not ever hesitate to contact her again, should I require a recruiter for a career change. Thank you for your courtesy and attention in this matter.

Sincerely,
- J. Lauren Ayr

"Just wanted to drop you a line to say thank you for introducing me to MarketLive. As you know this is my first day and it feels great to be here.

In looking back at my journey to finalize the move, I can honestly say that it started with Jeff's unique ability to LISTEN to what I was looking for and more importantly remember what I said and than matched my needs with the right opportunity. It is said throughout business and life you need to be a good listener and the difference between someone who hears you and listens to you, is the ability to act on what they understood. Thank you, Jeff.

I guess in the true sense of team work, Jeff then passed my credentials to Beth, and boy, Beth wrote the book on asking the right questions. Again, often people are sometimes so busy talking they are not asking the right questions to really gain an understanding to what I call the real level of what, when, why, how, etc.

This unique combination of listening, questioning and taking the appropriate actions is why Hobson & Associates was able to do what many have tried to do for many years, move Charlie Lewis from one great career into what I see is potentially another great career. Thank you for all your professionalism through the entire process, and GREAT SELLING."

"After working with Hobson Associates on my recent job search, I would like to relate my very positive experience of our dealings. This is the first time I have sent my kudos - a testimonial to a professional recruiter.

I have been contacted by many recruiters or 'head hunters' in the past. Prior experience is that they try to "fit you into" an open opportunity at a company that has a job opening. However, from the beginning, my interactions with Gerry Sorge and Hobson Associates were different - all in a most positive way. Their dedication, knowledge and commitment made them stand out way above the rest. Gerry, you truly took the extra time to really listen to me, understand my career goals and find out what I was looking for in a new job opportunity. You were most professional in all our dealings. I would definitely recommend you and Hobson Associates. Again, thank you so much for all the hard work and dedication.

Sincerely,
- Carol Miller

As a manager, I have to take into consideration the way I spend and manage my time, so the ability to hire a replacement quickly supports not only my ability to keep customers happy but manage my time efficiently. The single most important attribute is the quality of the individuals I interview. Hobson Associates brought to me highly qualified candidates and assisted in moving the process along. They coached me and helped guide the candidates. In the end, they reviewed references and provided me a summary for each candidate.

The bottom line, Hobson saved me time, money and I know I will maximize my return on my investment with the candidates I hired!"

"We at GCI had a need to fill a very difficult position. I was skeptical we would not find the right person in a reasonable time period. I turned to Hobson Associates and was extremely pleased with their work. Not only did they find several acceptable candidates within weeks but they remained involved through every aspect of the interview and hiring phase. It's quite clear when you are dealing with a professional company that truly goes the extra step for their clients. Hobson is that company. What I found appealing was their honesty in assessing a candidates strengths and their fit with our company. Hobson Associates understand a successful working relationship goes beyond the skills one has on paper. It takes complementary personalities. They pay attention to this aspect which is invaluable."

Amy has done a terrific job for us identifying and hiring talent. Equally important, Amy has worked closely with us to ensure that all facets of the recruitment process are effective – from sourcing candidates to checking references and closing offers. She quickly established her credibility with us and was then able to act in a consultative capacity. Amy’s value to us goes well beyond that of a typical recruiter.

Hobson Associates is perhaps the finest recruitment company that I've ever dealt with. They deliver the value in the recruiting game -- they are not simply a resume pusher. When I get a candidate from Hobson, I know that the individual has been personally vetted against my requirements, and therefore, a good use of my time in the interview process."

"I highly recommend Hobson Associates!"
