In over 30 years of working with leading executive search consultants, Jocelyn is without doubt the best I have come across.

Every aspect of how Jocelyn approaches and does her work is exceptional. She knows what constitutes excellence in an executive and is relentless in her efforts to uncover top talent. She invests her energy, at the highest level, at every stage of the search – including time with candidates, time with both candidate and interviewer during the interviews, and during the negotiation process. She will stay deeply connected and will continue to work with huge commitment until the right candidate is found no matter how long it takes.

It would be a pleasure to speak with anyone considering hiring Jocelyn and her firm.
