Kudos from Companies and Candidates

David is by far one of if not the best recruiter I have ever worked with in my career. David placed me at Holland Mark Advertsing 10 years ago. When I found myself in a similar situation in 2009, David was my first phone call in terms of discussing my career goals and opportunities that were currently available in the Boston market. David understands the discipline of marketing communications and not only acts as a recruiter for his clients but also as a consultant. He works very hard on behalf of his clients to ensure that the fit between employer and employee is the right one. He is available to answer questions and guide the process flawlessly. I’m pleased to have known David for over 10 years now.

David is one of the best executive recruiters in the business. I’ve worked with him as both a candidate and an employer, and he’s excellent in both roles. As a candidate, you really feel he has your best interests at heart, and is going to bat for you. As an employee, he’s working with you to source the very best prospects, and to get your job filled quickly. David comes highly recommended!

Our industry of database marketing is kind of unique and takes special candidates with varied skills. We could always count on David to provide us with candidates with the right skills and even additional skills that would enhance their work for us. He is not only very professional but his warmth and great sense of humor make working with him a genuine pleasure.

When working with David on a job search I found him to be professional and easy to work with right from our first conversation. He got me great results and stayed with me the entire process.

Our bar is extremely high, the skill set is in enormous demand and David consistently delivered excellent candidates. David has a very strong knowledge of the market, truly understands and partners with us and delivers outstanding results. I would highly recommend engaging David for your retained and contingency recruiting demands.

David did a terrific job in helping us to identify strong marketing candidates within a very short timeline. He was extremely positive, professional, and responsive throughout the 2.5 month recruiting process. He was able to ramp up quickly and really understood our goals for the search, which resulted in a successful placement for us. I look forward to working with him again soon!

I have had a fantastic experience as a MarketSearch candidate. David’s candid approach was a time saver (as he ensured I was only considering opportunities that truly aligned with my skill sets and long-term career goals) and his sense of humor made the sometimes stressful process of interviewing quite enjoyable. His marketing background, topnotch connections and knack for executive matchmaking are unsurpassed. I would recommend him to anyone looking for, or looking to fill a creative position.

David led the recruiting effort, his energy and drive set him apart. But it was his honesty and candor that I actually valued the most. With David, I was able to have candid conversations and he provided an enormous amount of value while I was in the consideration and decisioning process. I would strongly recommend him to any organization looking for that combination of ‘driver with a personal touch.

David is one of the best recruiters around. As a candidate out in the market, David really looked after my best interests.

I cannot recommend David highly enough. He is the kind of professional recruiter you can only hope to work with. Always extra-communicative, insightful and tenacious, working with David has been a fantastic experience.

Recently I have had the pleasure of working with David and through my experience it is apparent that David is a true professional whomever he interacts with and is highly skilled at locating talent and building the connection between the job description and the right candidate. He is a perfectionist with an abundance of industry knowledge and is willing to do whatever it takes to find the perfect fit. One of the rare qualities in his profession is patience and Dave has lots of it to wait till both the parties are satisfied with the decision. I really enjoyed the experience and highly recommend him for services on both employer and employee side.

David is the rare professional who truly understands relationship building. He makes the challenge of recruitment smooth and painless. And he is an ace negotiator who ends up making all parties feel like they are winning. It was a pleasure working with him and I would highly recommend him to my colleagues and peers.

I met Dave several years ago while he was conducting a search for one of his clients. While the position was not right for me, he did take the time to understand my career goals and we kept in touch. Last year Dave told me that he had the perfect job for me – and he was right. Dave listened to what I was looking for and didn’t waste my time with jobs that were not right. During the process, he was very proactive in keeping me in the loop and advocating my candidacy. Whenever someone tells me they are looking for a job, I don’t hesitate to give them Dave’s contact information.

When you’re looking for a new position, one of the most frustrating aspects can be the waiting and wondering. David was one of the most responsive recruiters I’ve ever worked with. When he had news, he called immediately. You always know where things stand when you’re working with David. He has helpful and professional in preparing for interviews — a real pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend David.
