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
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
It felt like we were true partners with Naviga and that was really big. They took the time to understand who I was, who the firm was, what our needs were and our pain points. Instead of feeling like a business transaction, there was a partnership in Naviga helping us find the right person for the right reasons.
Nicholas Halar
Senior HR Associate, Forensic Risk Alliance
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.
