“It has become as important to have a reliable relationship with a professional recruiter as it is to have a solid attorney or CPA. Cherie Shepard has taken the time to truly understand our business and our corporate culture. I have found Cherie to have a strong commitment to understanding our requirements and finding the absolute best candidates available. Cherie is a completion artist that never gives up and has been an outstanding resource to our company.”

We have worked together on some different projects and in my professional opinion, Cherie is a true professional who takes her profession seriously. Cherie treats people professionally yet has the ability to make you feel comfortable in your interactions. Cherie has a broad range of knowledge and considerable experience. It is a true pleasure working with Cherie.”

Communication with Cherie was great and I felt extremely prepared during interviews which made our hiring process much easier.”

“I sent out an SOS to a colleague regarding an open Sales Rep position in Texas. He recommended that I contact Direct Recruiters and Dan Charney. I found Dan to be very knowledgeable and industry-savvy so that we didn’t have to start at ground zero. Within a few days, Dan located 5 qualified candidates available to interview. I found 4 of the 5 to be contenders but there was one in particular that stood out. She was a great match based on the chemistry of our company, job description and me! Because of Dan’s admirable efforts, industry knowledge and pleasant attitude, I will only contact him and Direct Recruiters for our future job openings.”

Top qualities: Great Results, On Time, High Integrity

“Jason at Direct Recruiters exceeded my expectations with his understanding of the Packaging industry, and with his process of listening to what we were looking for in a candidate then finding the right talent for us. Working with Jason, we found a very good candidate who took the position and shows signs of promise to be a great hire. Jason’s professionalism and organization were key in the whole process. Jason really excels at listening to us on the front end to know exactly what we look for in a candidate. I certainly would recommend Jason at Direct Recruiters as it was a great experience for us.”

“I had the pleasure to work with the team at DR on an opportunity that lead to the next phase in my career. The team took the time to review my experiences in detail and explain the value they believed I could bring to the hiring organization…and they to me. During the several month process, DRI was very responsive and quick to admit when additional information was needed to answer a question.”

“Steadfast is how I would describe DRI. I had the opportunity to work with DRI in filling a sales position. DRI’s continued and constant attention was crucial in finding the right candidate. I greatly appreciate the diligence in finding quality candidates rather than simply pushing resumes to me. As a recruiter, DRI has my complete trust.”

“DRI is great to work with! Their communication and responsiveness was excellent. The DRI team does a fantastic job of making sure the position was a good fit for me and I was a good fit for the position. They took the time to guide me through the process to make sure I was informed, prepared, and comfortable.”

The Direct Recruiters team was an absolute delight to work with and they were superb teammates in helping me acquire the job of my dreams. They were very honest when it came to expectations and always took the time to help me prepare for interviews with informative follow-ups. DRI sincerely cared about my progress and took the time to really understand what I wanted.

I will continue to recommend DRI to friends, family, and colleagues. I had an extremely positive experience with their team and can’t say enough about their dedication and persistence.

DRI understands clients’ needs and requirements. You can tell they really take the time to find out what the profile is of the candidate they’re looking to fill a position. This came through when DRI initially reached out to me, described the position, and it matched perfectly to my background and abilities. The DRI team’s professionalism and knowledge continued through the entire process as they guided me on what areas of concern might be and personalities of the interviewers so I could prepare. Their guidance helped immensely along with following up consistently and timely on both sides of the process making sure to keep the momentum going. I definitely was successful because of the work DRI put into the process and time spent with me.

In the past I was reluctant to work with recruiters on career opportunities, honestly because I felt like I was strictly a commodity to most. But not DRI. The DRI team took the time to make sure the opportunity was a good fit for all involved. They got me detailed answers to my questions and in a timely manner. I’d get update calls even when there was not much to report; which if you’ve been there you know phone silence is a killer when you’re waiting for good news. I have the utmost of confidence in DRI’s abilities and commitment to their clients, on both sides. I have no problem referring them to friends and colleagues because I know they will do their best to place them in a position that is a good fit, not just what’s available to make a commission.

“I started working with DRI about 7 years ago and it was honestly because Jason Herbert was different from other recruiters. Instead of sending a bunch of resumes that never fit the bill, Jason prequalified and screened candidates to present the right fit. Two of the reasons we continue to work with Direct Recruiters are that they find the talent to meet the position requirements and always provides a follow-up to make sure the person is a good hire. They have made my job as a Director of Human Resources much easier because I have basically outsourced high level sales and engineer roles to them which allows me to focus on the positions that are easy for me to fill quickly. More importantly, we have worked with DRI to hire strategic leaders in our organization that have really helped us grow significantly as a company over the last 5 years. I would recommend Direct Recruiters to others with high-level searches; I have worked with Cherie Shepard in addition to Jason Herbert, and they both provide the same great, consistent service. It is clear that DRI’s core values are instilled in several recruiters because the approach is always the same, which is good.”

“Jason was always very responsive, followed-up on a regular basis and we had an overall good relationship. I valued the honest, open communication Jason provided throughout the process. He gave us good candidates throughout, offered good advice in the process from what he saw, and listened to my responses to really tailor who he was looking for to present to us. Overall it was a great experience and I would absolutely recommend using Jason Herbert as your recruiter.”
