“I recently had the opportunity to work with Michael. I found him to be extremely reliable and attentive to my needs. In my experience, this is rare for a recruiter. Michael provided a lot of activity in a short period of time. He has many high quality industry contacts and produces results. Whether searching for the right person to fill a role or a new role itself, I would highly recommend Michael.”

“I have been in the healthcare IT industry for almost 15 years and have utilized a number of different executive recruiters over that time. Some of my experiences have been less than stellar. Mike Silverstein, on the other hand, has always outperformed my expectations. He holds honesty and integrity to the highest regard. Mike always produces top talented individuals for my openings and we have hired 100% of the folks he has recommended that we have interviewed. The value that Mike has brought us over the last year exceeds the cost of his services. If you have any questions about Mike or his track record of success please don’t hesitate to contact me.”
Jim Mullen – Senior Vice President of Sales, T-System, Inc.

Throughout the process, he was helpful, patient, knowledgeable, and great advice. And in the end, I found a perfect job for my skills – one I wouldn’t have gotten without Mike’s help. I would recommend him wholeheartedly to anyone looking for new opportunities.”

I would highly recommend your approach, and your services to any other business that needs immediate results from a professional, results oriented company.”
