  • “Direct Recruiters and Cherie Shepard have been my partners for the better part of 13 years, of which 10 I have been in a managerial role responsible for acquiring new talent. I was hired as a candidate through them and now I work to hire through them as a hiring manager and it has been a pleasure working with them throughout the process whether I was a candidate or a hiring manager. Working with Cherie and Direct Recruiters is easy and painless. They’re educated about what they do, they understand the business atmosphere, and they understand the needs of the organization they’re working with. Throughout the process, Cherie continuously follows-up to ensure that our needs are being met. They understand the market, they take the time to understand what my needs are and what my organizations needs are, they vet the candidates very well, and they present me high quality candidates on a consistent basis that meet or exceed my expectations. I highly recommend Cherie and Direct Recruiters, to hire top quality talent.”

They worked diligently through the entire process of matching me to an employer’s position, advocating on my behalf, guiding me, coaching me, supporting me, and closing the deal with the employer. I have never had an experience with recruiters that were as personal, complete, and valuable as I did working with the DRI team. I owe them tremendous gratitude.”

  • “Working with Direct Recruiters exceeded my expectations. When looking for a search firm, the number one priority for us is to find a firm who thoroughly vets out candidates and asks detailed questions to candidates prior to sending them over to me. While they did a great job vetting out the candidates, Direct Recruiters also caught our eye with a unique program they have in Direct Retention. Having a guarantee that was more than 60 to 90 days to ensure we made the best hire was very appealing to us. I would absolutely recommend Direct Recruiters and Direct Retention for high level searches because of their exceptional follow-through, good flow of quality candidates, and they are very thorough. David and the team at Direct Recruiters were fabulous and I really enjoyed the experience working with them.”
