I felt very comfortable and confident in what Briggs was looking for. I could tell that you had worked with this company before and had a good feel for them. And that meant a lot.

I received a lot of information about the company.
I found it to be really helpful to work with a recruiter. It takes some of the pressure off to have someone that you can ask more in depth questions.
Sara Staszak, HR Generalist
Placed with our client Sammons Warehouse Solutions
Naviga has a team of good listeners and asked some great questions when learning about us. They had the desire and ability to customize a search to our needs. Naviga listened to our ideas and were able to overlay them with their expertise to find us some great salespeople.
Sven Kins
Managing Director, Cook M&A
After my first conversation with Naviga, I had a really good feeling about Bounce Curl. Just to have someone be there for the candidate is a huge, huge deal. Otherwise, we’re just names on paper.

Throughout the whole process, Naviga was super organized and really provided a lot of great background information.
