We were hiring for a Controller with very specific skills. After months of posting and using contingency recruiters with poor results, we reluctantly engaged ACS (sorry Dwight). But wow they were different. Total transparency, constant communication, no sugar-coating. We received detailed competitor insights, candidate targets and they had directly found numerous candidates in our region. We quickly hired a fantastic local Controller. I just wish we hadn’t wasted the four months before.
We’re delighted with the ACS Talent Select partnership. They found a highly qualified Sales Director for our company we were exiting and this hire clinched the valuation and sale of the entity. The way they approach recruiting is like they are personally invested in the company and is brilliant.
