Why Choose Naviga?
We Deliver. They Talk.
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 did a really good job of representing my interests and representing the interest of the client equally. It restored my faith in dealing with recruiters and set a new standard.
Brian Purcell, Vice President of Sales
Placed with our client Lockstep Technology Group
The thing that really stood out to me about working with Naviga was the shared investment. The recruiter, the company, and I all wanted it to work and we worked together towards that goal. Overall, it was a nice experience.
Bill Menaghan, Senior Sales Director
Selerix Systems
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.
Blessly Thomas, Marketing Manager
Placed with our client Bounce Curl
I wanted to thank you for being responsible for this amazing new opportunity. Today was my first day and I felt like I was in Oz. I stepped out of a black and white old life into a new life in technicolor. You are my Glenda. Thank you!

The change has been night and day, quality and quantity, since bringing on the 4 Sales Managers Naviga found for us. We are now focused on strategic areas and are in front of our customers repeatedly, driving the sales force, retention of clients and frequency – the sales hires lived up to their word, couldn’t be better, we’re having double-digit growth year after year.
Michael O’Neill
President, WERMA-USA
I felt I was prepared and it did give me a little bit of an advantage knowing some of the details about the role and where they were going with this opportunity and where the company was going as a whole.
Fred Tort, Senior Talent Acquisition Recruiter
Placed with our client InTegrum Resources
It’s been a very personalized experience, a structured experience, and one that I’m an advocate of and would support entirely for other people. I look forward to referring new candidates for Naviga’s other opportunities!
Brian Buzak, Enterprise Account Executive
Placed with our client Kore.ai
I was completely prepared for my interview. Everything was super helpful, especially the different tips and tricks that you gave me. There were things you included in there that I didn’t even think about.
Matt Sprague, Inbound B2B Sales professional
Placed with our client Bulletproof
The job description and information prior to my first meeting were very descriptive, it was very thorough. It was refreshing to see the detail and the information that was needed to really make an assessment prior to that first call.
Andrew Lockerbie, VP of Health Plans
PDHI
There are many recruiting companies out there, and Naviga seems to be a step above the rest—more professional, more straightforward, and truly concerned about the person they’re interacting with.
James Scott, Wholesale Sales Representative
Placed with our client C&B Equipment
Naviga doing the vetting process, being selective with candidates and having reasonable fees is a benefit to me. There’s a true vested interest in being successful & I liked the proactive communication between Kathleen, Julia and myself.

As the year comes to a close, talent leaders face an important question: Are your open positions still aligned with where your business is headed in 2027? An open requisition that has been sitting for 60, 90, or even 120 days deserves more than another round of resume reviews. It

Why Your 2027 Plan Will Fail If You Wait Until Q1 to Start Hiring Key Leaders
The most dangerous assumption in executive strategy is believing a Q1 start date means Q1 hiring. By the time 2027 officially begins, organizations that waited to launch critical leadership searches may already be behind schedule. Executive hiring takes time. Identifying the right candidates, engaging qualified talent, conducting interviews, aligning stakeholders,
