Norman Volsky

“Norm & Mitch are extremely professional, consultative and encouraging. The depth of knowledge they bring is invaluable. I’ve worked with recruiters from all over the industry – this team is unmatched! They are polished and actionable. Easy to get in touch at any time – super communication (text, email, phone). It is a joy to work with them!”

“I really appreciate the partnership we’ve had with Norm, Tyler, and Mitch over the years. They take the time to really know our company, culture, and the roles – this helps them truly deliver the right value prop to the candidates and ensure they’re helping us find the right matches. Always enjoy working with Norm and his team!”

“Tyler was quick to respond to any inquiries and always followed up after an interview or conversation with a prospective company promptly. Tyler and Norm helped walk me through the negotiation process, providing direction, information, and frank discussion when needed. Their guidance was well received.”

“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Norm and his team over the past few years and can say, without a doubt, that they are the best in the business. The network that Norm has established within the digital health space is second to none and the processes they set up takes all the pain and time out of recruiting.

It’s been a true value-add partnership on the business side, but I’ve also enjoyed the ability to get to know Norm personally. It’s these little things that make all the difference.”

“Norm and his team have been great partners in our search for high quality talent in the digital health space. Highly responsive, extremely detailed in their overview of candidates, and strategic in who they propose for interviews. We have had the great fortune of hiring for several roles leveraging Norm and team’s vast network of some of the best talent in our industry. I would recommend Norm and his team to anyone looking to fill roles in the digital health space.”

“Norm and the entire DRI team are fantastic recruiters. Norm and his team listen, they get to know your company, they challenge your assumptions, and he has an excellent network, great relationships, and his standards are very high.

Norm has placed >10 people at Hinge Health, and these hires’ performance are among the highest in our company. His hires have collectively added over $50m in revenue to our company”

“Upon joining Livongo, I was tasked with building their Health System sales vertical. I was introduced to Norm and his team and they were instrumental in helping me recruit top talent as I built my team. They really took the time to listen to what I was looking for not only experience wise but culturally.

Norm and his team have been an extension of our team and valuable collaborators. I would recommend them to any Digital Health company looking to attract and secure top commercial talent.”

“I began partnering with Norm and his team as soon as I joined Livongo. Norm’s team worked as an extension of my recruiting team and were a true partner in every sense of the word. They took it upon themselves to deeply understand our culture and helped Livongo build out our commercial team in roles including Leadership, Employer Sales, Health Plan Sales, Health System Sales, Partnerships & Business Development and Product Management. Norm and his team are extremely knowledgeable about the Digital Health space and know where to find and attract the best talent. They took pride in representing Livongo in the marketplace for talent and made a great first impression for us to candidates that we hired. I would recommend Norm and his team to any organization looking to rapidly scale its commercial business by adding top talent.”

“Norm and I have worked together both to pursue opportunities and help build out my commercial teams. Norm listens, understands the Digital Health landscape extremely well and has access to the very best talent in the industry. Norm and his team are trusted partners and their consultative style is refreshing. Making a job change is stressful for anyone and Norm’s laid back approach is a calming asset for both the candidate and company looking to grow their team.”

“I have had the pleasure of working with Norm Volsky at Direct Recruiters as both a candidate and then a client. Norm and his team were true partners to me throughout both processes. As a candidate, Norm was extremely engaged and effective in helping me navigate my way into a new role. On the client side, Norm and his team provide industry insight, thorough communication, and they present exceptional candidates to fit our open roles. I would recommend Norm and his team of Digital Health recruiters to both clients looking to hire top talent, and candidates looking for their next great role.”

“I have worked with Norm and his team at two different companies. In both scenarios, we were looking for a specific profile of candidates plus the right culture fit. These requirements can be difficult in a competitive market. Both times his team was not only very swift with bringing us high-quality candidates but great culture matches as well. The DRI team operates like an extension of your business when they are in an active search for you. We hired 3 candidates within 3 weeks-simply amazing.”

“I have known Norm for years and have worked with him as both a candidate and as a hiring manager. Norm placed me at Spok and has helped me hire members of my team. He knows the healthcare software industry inside and out. Norm and Direct Recruiters is a world class recruiting organization. He’s build a brand for himself and Direct Recruiters that differentiates against any other firm. Norm is extremely professional, honest, and works with the highest level of integrity and passion for his clients.
Anytime I need top talent Norm’s my first call. I recommend him to individuals looking for that next role or hiring managers looking to build a team full of A players. Norm is one of few recruiter athletes willing to do whatever it takes.”

“Norm has assisted us in finding a number of positions; including several of our ASMs, our Director of Operations and our VP of Sales. The VP role is a key position that leads and creates a great deal of our company’s success, hence it was especially complex and he delivered exactly what we needed. Norm has been a critical resource in finding great talent in a very specialized industry for us. Since my first conversation with him, I knew he was a true collaborator, he was extremely well-connected in the industry, and he understood the importance of confidentiality. Norm continued to educate me on key items in the industry and always had time to discuss thoughts on a candidate, brainstorm ideas, and determine the most effective offer. He not only focuses on the details of the job, but the culture and personality that will be successful. We always felt like a top priority working with Norm and I can’t recommend Norm enough for organizations looking to partner with a recruiter to find candidates that fit the role, culture and compensation.”

“Norm rocks! He gets it!
He asks questions and gathers as much information as possible, from both clients and candidates. He knows the company, culture, benefits, and has insights into the hiring manager. Invaluable information when considering a new long-term opportunity.
Norm’s genuine, an efficient communicator, and provides invaluable tools and input for interviewing and follows up after you’re in to ensure it was the best fit. To this extent, Norm is the best at going over and beyond the standard recruiter approach.
I recommend him to any colleague seeking a new opportunity.

… they take pride in making the best matches,”

“It has been a pleasure getting to know Norm and having the opportunity to work with him on a number of pursuits. Norm is an industry insider and expert which always puts him ahead of the trends and fads. Norm is a long term partner in my career and I am proud to have him as a mentor and coach.”

“Sharp, Great Communicator, Motivated, and Responsive are just some of the adjectives I would use to describe Norm. I found him to be Professional and easy to work with.”

“Norm and his colleagues/partners provided exemplary service for my obtaining a position with Capsule Tech. Their expertise in selection of one of the best companies in USA/Globe for me which matched my skills and desires – outstanding! Thank you Norm.”

“Norm and the team at Direct Recruiters have been a great partner to me and many of my colleagues over the years. Norm has taken the time to understand my career objectives and has put me in touch with the kind of people and companies that match those goals. I highly recommend Norm for any career search opportunites!”
