“I have the pleasure of working with Kate on two recent executive searches. She was able to fill the positions in the company in a very short period of time. Not only the assignment was completed with flying colors, I am thrilled to have met someone so unique and impressive in what she does.

Due to her background in sales, she is able to bring a fresh perspective in recruiting. Rather than following the usual procedures, her approach is very creative and out-of-the-box. Rather than using the standard ‘recruiting tools’, she tabs into her wide network of contacts. She identifies candidates through solid recommendations from investors (board members, VCs, PEs), and former managers/colleagues/subordinates. Her search effort is very thorough.

She takes time to prepare comprehensive memos that describe the hiring company's background, company culture, and the job requirement. She put together insightful questionnaires for candidates, which enables hiring managers to obtain a different perspective and insight into the candidates’ backgrounds, aspirations, and pursuits prior to face-to-face meetings. One can rest assured that the candidates she recommends have gone through an extensive back-channel vetting process. Through her search methodology and connections, she is able to surface very high-caliber candidates with context than simply presenting resumes. I would recommend Kate to anyone who plans to recruit senior executives. It will be hard to find another recruiting professional with such unique combination of skills, background, and talent.”
