Client Testimonials
I have been a happy client of Personnel Associates, both as a hiring manager and as a career manager for over 20 years. We needed a seasoned editor to help us expand into peripheral markets, and the successful candidate had to work out of our location at some distance from the nearest city. Shelly uncovered not only our winning candiate, who is perfect for the position, but also several other candidates to give us a real choice. I had exhausted my own extensive network, and I was amazed at the number and caliber of candidates that Shelly was able to locate. When my own efforts left me discouraged, Shelly really came through for us.
Alexa’s communication skills, professionalism and effectiveness throughout our entire recruiting process was superb. If a client’s resume and or the first interview did not produce the skill set and/or talent that I was looking for and expecting, Alexa received that information well, and moved on to identifying the next possible client. I also very much appreciated how Alexa was an advocate in looking out for both sides – she was diligent in all of her efforts of finding me and my company the best hire, while also wanting to find the right position and company for the potential candidate.
Steve invested time to understand the brief and was really effective in providing relevant candidates. His regular communication and professional approach set him apart from other suppliers.
Steve and his team are consummate professionals and an ideal partner. They are action oriented with a sophisticated view of the market. I would recommend anyone consider Steve’s team for their recruiting needs.
Shelly is a top-notch talent recruiter in the education space. I was both recruited by Shelly and subsequently recruited other staff members through her. My experience in working with Shelly has been very positive and successful. I highly recommend working with Shelly to other colleagues in the space.
I have worked with Alexa on a number of placements and have always found her to be highly responsive and very focused on my specific needs. I would recommend her highly for any placement.
Steve is my go-to recruiter when recruiting for Sales, Marketing and Editorial positions. I can always rely on Steve, as he never fails to produce candidates each and every time he’s called upon to help us in our various searches. Steve’s demeanor is always professional and courteous which makes him such a pleasure with which to work.

Steve recruited me for a wonderful position at the American Heart Assocation. I think his best attribute was being able to recognize that I posses important transferable skills that, at first glance, might not be an obvious match for the position. In the end, though, I think he made a great match for me and he was professional, timely, and knowledgeable every step of the way. I very much appreciate the work he did to get me into this position and I give highest recommendation for his work.
I worked with Shelly when I was in the middle of a job search in 2010-2011 and she was an invaluable resource for me in looking at career opportunities that were a good fit with my publishing, language and sales skills. Throughout the entire process, she was a trusted adviser and a great coach.
I received calls from many recruiters during my job search, but none of them understood my industry like Steve did. Steve matched me with an excellent medical publishing opportunity in a city where medical publishing is virtually nonexistent, and he followed up diligently and professionally to close the deal.
