Because of the professionalism shown to me, I am now working with her to find employees in my new role.”

“Cherie is a professional in all senses of the word. Making the difficult appear easy, making the complicated simple and turning impossible barriers into small bumps. Cherie and the great folks she leads at DRI know the packaging industry very well, which translates into having a pulse on the industry in a way that few others have.

“I truly enjoyed working with Direct Recruiters. Their team was extremely detail-oriented and did a great job at representing the role and the company. They truly took the time to research the company and candidate. DRI recruiters made themselves available nights and weekends and were always transparent each step of the way, which earned my trust from the beginning. DRI is talented at understanding and aligning both the company and the candidate needs. I highly recommend DRI to anyone looking for a trusted partner and look forward to working with them in the future.”

“The DRI team all worked together to place me in a role that was not only a good fit professionally but also personally. I was not looking when I was approached but the position ended up being such a great fit that I could not resist. I am now much happier and fulfilled by my job and I know this will develop into a lengthy career. Thank you for your help DRI!”

“Jason from the DRI team was a great help during my job search! He listened and paid attention to my wants and needs and not just the client. In the end, it was a comprehensive placement. Jason found a fit that matched not just my job skills but a cultural match as well.”

“I have worked with DRI and Cherie for recruiting and executive search services for over 15 years. DRI really works hard to get somebody that they believe would fit the position. DRI understands the needs of the company and our culture- not just the job spec but the softer areas that are hard to establish when looking at resumes. I am completely, 100%, satisfied with DRI. I wouldn’t change the recruiters for anything! Working with Cherie is awesome! She understands our business, she knows our people, she knows what we are looking for and she anticipates our process. Cherie is always positive and she never, ever, throws candidates at us just to throw candidates at us. Working with DRI is an important part of our culture here at Hanel -and the most critical. The DRI team is dialed in to my industry. They know my competitors, not just direct competitors but the long-term personalities within Material Handling. As a member of the Material Handling board and a former member of the round table for NHI, I have recommended DRI to all the high-level CEOs there, powerful people within Material Handling. I don’t make recommendations all willy-nilly, I make the recommendation because I’m sure.”

“The DRI team should be on the short list for those who are looking to recruit talent. They are genuinely committed to making both companies and candidates successful. Through clear and constant communication, DRI recruiters make sure that everyone feels comfortable with the process and that deadlines are met.”

“I had the opportunity to work with DRI on a search for a Regional Sales Manager role our organization was looking to fill. The experience with Direct Recruiters was a positive one. They were very professional and responsive and were able to identify a great slate of qualified candidates for this role in a short period of time. I would highly recommend DRI for hiring managers in need of qualified candidates. I look forward to working with the team at Direct Recruiters in the future.”

“I worked with Joel very closely and found him to be a very good listener, very methodical and systematic in his approach, and professional in all aspects. He helped so much at each milestone and continues to keep communication lines open. Switching companies was a challenge, but Joel provided a solid base of reference through the process. I would certainly recommend him.”

“I would highly recommend Joel and the entire Direct Recruiters team. In today’s market place and environment it is nice to know there are people like Joel that are truly looking for the right fit for you. If you are in search for a recruitment team that will work for, give them a call. you will not be sorry.”
