CLIENT
TESTIMONIALS
We're gratified to have
helped some terrific companies develop or sustain world-class sales
forces. But more than anything else, we appreciate the support
and endorsement of our clients. Here are a just a few of their
comments.
"In late 2002,
we were conducting a critical search for a Vice President,
Sales and needed to be extremely selective, looking for a unique
blend of skills and experiences. I’d been very frustrated
working with other search consultants because they didn’t
seem able to understand exactly what we were looking for and
would throw unqualified candidates at us. However, after engaging
Selection Strategies, Ross quickly began to surface highly-qualified
candidates who met our criteria. In the end we found the perfect
fit. One year into the job our new VP has increased our top
line by more than 70%."
Gary
Lucido, Chief Operating
Officer
Selection Strategies has been
my first choice for my sales force recruiting needs on a worldwide
basis for the past 5 years. They take the time to understand
my needs and match that against only the highest quality people.
I consider them a trusted business partner because they have
consistently delivered and exceeded my expectations.

Formerly Vice President of Sales at Excelergy & Enamics
"Selection
Strategies is an integral part of sales recruiting at i2 Technologies.
They were able to define the profile of our ideal salesperson,
create a process for identifying strong candidates in the talent
marketplace and evaluate their probability of success in our
company. The accuracy and predictive value of their selection
tools is a major benefit."
Jim
Contardi, President EMEA (Europe, Middle East, Africa), i2 Technologies
"I retained Selection
Strategies as the national, in-house sales recruiter for RESTRAC
(now WebHire) just after our IPO was completed. They did a superb
job of quickly finding and qualifying 12 new, high quality sales
representatives for us. Overall, this group substantially outperformed
our revenue expectations. When I moved on to FlexiInternational
Software, Ross found our #1 salesperson for us. I've
come to expect great things from Selection Strategies. I'm looking
forward to working with them in the future."
Todd
McCarthy, Managing Partner, Matlin Partners (former VP of Sales,
Restrac)
"I retained Selection
Strategies to function as our in-house sales recruiter while
the Area Vice President for the Great Lakes Area at Oracle.
They were instrumental in growing our applications sales organization
as well as supporting other groups within my region, and their
methodology always produced high-quality results. When I left
Oracle to become CEO of FASTECH, they were my first choice
to help me build our sales organization."
Kevin
M. Dolan, VP Sales, PeopleSoft
"From September 1997 through March 1998, Ross Rich and Selection
Strategies assisted us in qualifying and hiring more than 80 instructors
for Oracle's Applications Education group. The volume of quality placements
in a short timeframe was impressive enough. More so, however, was the
efficiency of the process. We tendered offers to the vast majority
of the candidates we interviewed. And six months later, a significant
number of the instructors who reached our Oracle Quality Club were
Selection Strategies recruits."
Michael
Alfano, Vice President, Oracle
"I've used Selection
Strategies with great success. Their ability to get the sales
recruiting job done for us at Red Pepper Software was fundamental
to our decision to continue our relationship after the acquisition
of Red Pepper by PeopleSoft. Ross and his staff did a terrific
job both in locating and qualifying top sales talent, and in
continuously updating their training products during our recruiting
engagements."
