”The significant benefit from using The Collective's Executive Search Services is the network of leaders they have cultivated. This enabled us to access an exceptional pool of candidates quickly. I appreciate the speed of their process—this search moved at least twice as fast as almost any other search we have conducted at the university. We were absolutely thrilled with the finalists and the overall candidate pool. The Collective helped us clarify our needs, the scope of the portfolio, and the prospectus development. I would highly recommend The Collective. This has been one of the best search experiences in my role and within this field.”

“It was beneficial to have The Collective involved in our search, and I would recommend using them again. Within Student Affairs, Career Services is very niche. It was a learning opportunity for me that it takes a particular know-how and understanding of Career Development to identify the best candidates. The Collective's knowledge of the field is exceptionally helpful.“
