Laurie is top-notch, and I would recommend her to anyone in need of her services.”

She is very detail oriented, extremely knowledgeable, trustworthy, and most importantly, reliable. I am again working with Laurie for an addition hire for our Finance Team and will work with her in the future should we continue to grow our department. I would recommend Laurie to anyone who is looking for candidates to grow their organization.”

“Laurie’s ability to place talent where your company needs it is very impressive. She worked with my team to quickly fill a contractor opening without cutting any corners and ensuring quality support. In fact, the contractor worked out so well, we ended up converting to full-time. Just shows she has the insight and intuition on which finance professionals make sense for her clients – something I only imagine is possible from a seasoned professional such as her.”
Andrew Delgado, Controller
“I had the opportunity to work with Laurie last year when I was seeking an experienced sales position for one of my markets. Through her network of professional contacts and her persistent efforts, we were able to find a knowledgeable and experienced candidate in an area where we had previously struggled to find talent. Not only did we find a quality new hire, but our new employee quickly shared with me that the primary reason they had pursued the opportunity was due to Laurie’s insistence that they at least interview for the job. It was an all-around great experience, and I would not hesitate to utilize Laurie again for future needs.”
Gordon Guthrie, SVP Divisional Treasury Sales Manager
“I worked with Laurie DeSalvo and can’t say enough good things about her. Laurie is the utmost professional and yet she’s personable in her approach. I’ve seen many recruiters that are “by the book” when the “book” can sometimes be tired, outdated and utterly useless in today’s world of finding the right fit for both employer and employee. Laurie digs in to find out your wants, desires, and needs, then finds the culture where your values fit. Additionally, she guides you throughout the process, forms, interview, dress, etc., so that you can make a good impression all while continuing to be yourself. It was refreshing working with her and I feel she brings honesty and class to the recruiting profession.”
Tonya Mazurek, SBA Lender
