It was a great pleasure to work with the Talbott Team. Over a three-month period, we completed an exhaustive search on our own (advertised, interviewed, reference checked) but were not successful. We decided to contract Talbott and had the ideal candidate within one month! What a difference! I highly recommend using Talbott for your society!

Talbott Talent was a joy to work with and built my confidence in our ability to find the right Deputy Director candidate. The process was thorough and efficient from beginning to end. She knew all the right questions to ask me to help focus on my needs, and the needs of our organization, not just the characteristics of a qualified candidate.

Talbott Talent did an excellent job of identifying and screening candidates for a key position. They were attentive and responsive to all our queries, helping generate a very strong pool of prospective and final candidates. After we made a decision, they followed up with each of them. Brava!

We worked with Talbott Talent on a review of our organizational chart/structure. Our staff was very happy with our experience. At first, staff was skeptical of an outside person coming in for interviews and focus groups. Once they completed the process, they found the experience was very productive and helpful. The information we gained through the process has helped us make informed strategic decisions about the future of our organization. Having assistance from Talbott Talent helped bring that outside neutral viewpoint we needed.

I found my experience with Talbott to be world-class. They represented me with IFMA when I served as Interim Chief Operating Officer for nine months until I was ultimately hired permanently by the organization. IFMA found Talbott so effective in their interim and search services that we have asked them to participate in another upcoming leadership search. I highly recommend working with Talbott!
