“DRI is always very professional and helpful in finding and securing top talent. I have especially enjoyed working with Ben Shamis and Norman Volsky. Great communication throughout the process – helped us get through hurdles! Really enjoy the experience with Direct Recruiters and they definitely bring great talent.”

“Can’t recommend Steve enough. He helped me find, apply, and secure a new role that fit exactly what I was looking for. Very responsive and always a phone call away through the whole process.”

“I was very satisfied at how professional Ben was and how knowledgeable he was of the company and my background as it related to the company needs.”

“Steve was highly responsive and worked to get me into a role that matched my career goals after taking the time to understand what they were. Prep sessions prior to interviews made sure I knew who I was going to be talking to and what they were looking for so I was always prepared!”

“Steve was with me every step of the way. He provided thorough responses to my questions and checked in regularly to see how things were progressing. Overall experience was excellent. Steve was always available and ready to jump in to assist. Great experience!”

“Ben essentially received me as a lead from Steve Benson and got right to work getting to know me, my goals, and what attributes I was looking for in my next employer. He quickly surfaced the opportunity that I was hired into and was super communicative and helpful throughout the application process. Ben kept me “in the know” holding frequent, unscheduled touch bases to let me know how things were progressing or to help me prep for phases of the interview process.”

“DRI was great! They responded quickly. I referred friends over to DRI that also were placed in jobs in a timely manner. They show they cares and are very great at their job! I have worked with other 3rd party recruiters, DRI is by far the best I have ever worked with! I loved working with DRI. I applied for many jobs and ended up getting interviews for exactly what I was looking for quickly after contacting DRI.”

“Though I was not actively seeking new employment at the time, I first became acquainted with the DRI team via LI where they directly engaged with me regarding some viable job opportunities that aligned with my profile. In my experience, gross assumptions of a candidate’s capabilities (or limitations) based simply on Title/Company/Tenure happen with great frequency across recruiting firms, particularly for sales professionals. Even when the assumptions are based on a recruiter’s previous interactions with others in the same or similar roles, this candidate bias commoditizes the individual in a way that eliminates their unique traits (e.g. soft skills, drive, passion, grit) for potential employers. The results are typically wasted time and unfulfilled goals for all involved. I’m happy to say that DRI broke the mold and did not follow this pattern when working with me. As a tenured sales professional in the Healthcare IT-Technology space, I was very impressed with how DRI separated themselves from many other recruiters I’ve interacted with in the past by investing the time to better understand my own uniquely developed skillsets for success based on the types of challenges I willingly took on to grow my craft over the years. They sought out my professional interests, delved into my areas of expertise, & showed sincere interest in helping me meet my long-term career goals. The DRI team is incredibly professional, always returning communications in a timely manner, and remained consistently proactive in seeking updates from potential employers pre & post interview. Once I began to seriously consider roles being presented to me, they were also an invaluable resource in educating me about the key changes & trends involved in the interview/recruiting process since I was last on the market–ensuring I was both comfortable & prepared.”

“I have had multiple experiences with DRI and they are consistent and response. For this particular search, all involved parties were actively managing the selection process. Multiple follow ups were also conducted while staying within script of the agreed upon messaging. The pre-word to provide quality resources was greatly appreciated. Will continue to use their services in the future.”

“The entire process was a very good experience. Working with Steve was a joy! The entire staff at DRI are professional, great communicators and helpful with navigating the entire interview and selection process. I would highly recommend DRI.”

“I reached out to DRI after an unfortunate layoff and he got to work right away! They came to the table with several incredible offers over a very short period of time. DRI ended up connecting me with the organization I ultimately joined and I received an offer within 10 days of our first meeting! My total comp and benefits were exceeded and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome! Incredible experience and I can’t recommend DRI enough!”

“Working with recruiting firms in the past, DRI has been my best experience. The quality of candidates were very high and the folks that have joined us have been excellent so far.”

“Great experience, listened to our needs and budget, provided good quality candidates that met the criteria, DRI recruitment team exceeded expectations. Thank you, Michael Silverstein and the entire recruitment team!”

“Mike and his team are consultative, experienced, and collaborative. They offer thoughtful ideas and solutions and then go out and execute. Most importantly, they are trustworthy, honest and are focused on the long-term relationship with their customer. We partnered with the DRI team on the successful hire of our Chief Clinical Officer and subsequently a search for our new General Counsel. If you are looking for a search partner that is focused on what is best for your business and not theirs, talk to Mike.”

“Megan was very helpful in trying to determine the right opportunity fit for me based on my skills/experience and career goals. She appropriately coached me throughout the process and assisted after the final offer with details around references, etc. Overall a very efficient process with alot of great information and tips to help secure the position I wanted.”

“Ben did a great job with communicating with me and always made himself available. If you’re looking for a new career, talk to Ben!”

“I had the distinct pleasure of working closely with Steve as my executive recruiter and I can unequivocally say that he is a consummate professional in this field.

Steve possesses an unparalleled understanding of the complex landscape of the healthcare tech industry. His ability to grasp the needs of both candidates and organizations is exceptional. He goes above and beyond to ensure that the alignment between talent and opportunity includes cultural characteristics which creates a personalized approach for both candidates and customers.

His insights into the evolving trends and demands within the healthcare product industry makes him an invaluable asset to any individual seeking placement or any organization seeking top-tier talent in this space which is why I wholeheartedly endorse Steve and recommend him for anyone seeking a knowledgeable, reliable, and dedicated executive recruiter.”

“I highly recommend Stephen for his invaluable assistance throughout my career search journey. His profound understanding of the healthcare IT industry and the specific nuances of the company I interviewed for set him apart. Stephen’s meticulous preparation for each interview, showcased his commitment to my success. Moreover, his consistent follow-up via email, text, and phone calls demonstrated a level of support that truly made a difference in securing my new leadership role.”

“Steve is an invaluable partner for navigating the complexities of an executive search. He’s well prepared, educated on his clients and their needs, and has deep insights within the healthcare space. He is an incredible asset if you’re looking to grow your team and/or find the right fit for your next venture.”

“Grateful for an excellent experience working with Stephen on my journey to the VP Technical Customer Care role. His exceptional communication and thorough preparation made the process smooth and enjoyable.”
