Testimonials

Laura Caterino, VP/Private Banking

"I really enjoyed working with Stacy and her team at Park Avenue Group in Orlando. They outlined what I should expect from start to finish and exceeded my original expectations. I have been on my new job a little over a month and the information they provided every step of the way was very accurate about the company I am now working for. They were able to provide good comparisons between companies I have worked for in the past and the company I would be interviewing with, including the culture and philosophy. I expressed a concern regarding confidentiality and they were very discrete and arranged my interviews around my existing work schedule. No one ever knew I was interviewing until it came time to resign. Stacy especially, offered great suggestions just prior to my interviews. The interviews went just as she predicted, which really eliminated that feeling of uncertainty you get going into an interview. She usually prepared me before every interview and she or Bruce would touch base with me directly after and later provided feedback from the person who interviewed me. The whole process moved very smooth and actually quicker than I anticipated. Stacy even made suggestions as to how to handle a resignation. I have recommended them to friends of mine and will continue to do so."


Jeff Greenhill, VP/Commercial Relationship Manager

"The Park Avenue Group was great. They started the process by interviewing me to determine my wants and needs, and then matched these to the jobs available. They didn't try to fit a round peg into a square hole. They were always available and kept me informed throughout the process. Most businesses want repeat clients. Park Avenue Group does such a good job of matching prospects with employers that they won't have much repeat business from the prospect side."


Aggie Winthrop, VP/Human Resources

"In working with Stacy and her team I have found them to be extremely professional and very customer service oriented both from a candidate in search of an opportunity and now as a Human Resources Director in search of qualified candidates. They are always very pleasant to deal with. They are upbeat and enthusiastic in keeping candidates in the forefront as well as informed as to each stage of the progress. Stacy and her team give good advice for one's career and how to manage a particular situation. I have had a 100% positive experience with the team and look forward to doing continued good business with them."


John Powell, SVP/Sales Team Leader/Commercial Lending

"Stacy provided professional, value added representation in my job search to meet my career objectives. Her banking background set her apart from her peers in understanding my experience and goals in evaluating career opportunities. Stacy actively managed the recruitment and hiring process and provided valuable advice and market insight."


Jocelyn Lane, VP/Commercial Lending

"I had been employed with my former company for over ten years, so looking for a new job was actually kind of foreign in nature to me at this point in my career. However, once I met Stacy, I knew I had the kind of expertise on my side to really help give me the advantage. Stacy helped me identify companies I wanted to interview, assisted me with reviewing my resume and coached me prior to the interview process as well. In addition, when it came time to resign, Stacy even provided advice on the resignation letter as well as how to handle the conversation with my supervisor. Most importantly of all, I found Stacy to be my confidant and the person there for me through this entire challenging process. I found her to be resourceful and knowledgeable. I know she has to represent both the person interviewing as well as for the companies she is providing the candidates to be interviewed. She maintains this position in an extremely professional manner while at the same time making sure she is doing the right thing for all parties. It was a pleasure working with Stacy and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a career change and/or new company to join."

You are the finest recruiter I have ever worked with. I hope I personally do not need your services in the future, but if I do, you'll be the first one I call. Thank you for your guidance and support."


Heather R, Director of Marketing

Dear Marc,

I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for the terrific support and hard work you did to help us identify and hire a wonderful candidate for our position. Your efforts went way beyond the expectations I had and enabled us to find just the right person for the job. I especially appreciated the time you took to understand our needs, very important to streamlining this process. You ensured that you understood our corporate culture as well as the future growth needs for this person to fulfill, which was helpful in ensuring the "fit" would be there as well as the credentials.

One thing that I would especially compliment you on is your amazing follow-up. You kept me informed every step of the way, which is a rare quality in today's environment. Often your communication was voice to voice which is especially appreciated in this age of e-mail. We discussed the position and the progress to identifying appropriate candidates. By keeping in touch, I had a good sense of the status of the search and I'm certain that this led ultimately to the positive outcome we achieved together.

Diane has truly already had a positive impact on our company and is gaining the support and respect of all those she works with. It's as if she has been with us for a lot longer than her actual tenure. This is due in great part to the time and support you provided in identifying and securing her for this position.

I would not hesitate to ask for your assistance as we continue to grow our business. Thanks again for your unique approach and for the enthusiasm with which you do the job. The Park Avenue Group is fortunate to have you on their team!!
