Updated bios and company information are on the website. Here are some testimonial excerpts...

I have worked with recruiters on contingency and retained searches for over 20 years. Dave Staats has been a pleasure to work with, ethical, and effective. I would recommend him without reservation.

Dave makes the effort to understand our requirements and to send me as few candidates as possible until the right one is hired. He frequently wins our business because he is so fast to locate candidates. On a recent search he found a multi-lingual (German and English) candidate that had the right experience and lived a few kilometers from our UK office. This was the second candidate he sent over, and after only two weeks of searching.

Over more than a decade, I have worked with Dave Staats at SearchPartner and two other companies. During that time, he has identified, sourced and delivered

several teams of quality employees for my direct hire. Working with complex,

varied, and challenging requirements for these technical positions, he has

consistently delivered the best talent available while remaining mindful of

cost constraints, lifestyle requirements and cultural fit. Dave works easily

as an extension of my company -- sometimes to the extent that the candidates

do not realize he is a vendor! His consistent and thorough work demonstrates

that he values the long-term business relationship rather than only filling

a current position.

I have worked successfully with Dave Staats for around fifteen years. His professionalism is impeccable, and the quality of his placements is something that I have learned to count on. It may sound cliche' but Dave is a partner, not just a recruiter.

I simply wanted to put down on paper my thanks for the job you have done in facilitating the acquisition of my new position. I very much appreciate the interactions I have had with you and I am continually impressed by your high standards of professional behavior.

This started out as a fairly negative situation based on the lack of response from the company representative. The determination you showed and the dedication to working this out in such a difficult environment makes you deserving of the highest professional kudos. When working with you I received nothing but prompt responses, honest opinions and a well-placed reality check when necessary. This is even more impressive to me when combined with the fact that we have never met face to face.

I would give you the highest recommendation to any and all of my peers. In fact, I already have. Good luck with all things professional and personal.

I have the distinct pleasure of working with Mr. David Staats and

Southwestern as both a candidate seeking employment and as a hiring manager

seeking qualified star talent.

As a candidate, I was only sent in to interview where there was a solid match

of my background, interests and skills to the position presented to me. He

provided good intellignece on the company, the hiring manager and properly

set expectations on both sides of the interview.

As a hiring manager, I was always presented with a solid array of talent to

select from and Dave always provided proper background and positioning of

each candidate and adeptly coordinated all scheduled interviews and ensured

that candidates knew where they were to meet, who they would meet and that

they were properly prepared.

As long as I remain in the workforce in some capacity I expect to always

take full advantage of Dave's network and suspect little need to go

elsewhere for any form of recruiting services.
