Simply put–David is a remarkable recruiter. He has the experience and ability to find and place the right candidate in the perfect position. He asks all the right questions and digs deep to make sure that the match is successful for all parties involved. He keeps you informed, updated, and encouraged throughout the process. I would highly recommend David to help place you in your perfect position or find your next successful employee.

Epsilon VP, Digital Strategic Consulting

I have had a fantastic experience as a MarketSearch candidate. David’s candid approach was a time saver (as he ensured I was only considering opportunities that truly aligned with my skill sets and long-term career goals) and his sense of humor made the sometimes stressful process of interviewing quite enjoyable. His marketing background, topnotch connections and knack for executive matchmaking are unsurpassed. I would recommend him to anyone looking for, or looking to fill a creative position.

Working with David as a candidate was a great experience from start to finish. Unlike most recruiters, David truly listened to my desired types of jobs and work environments. He was knowledgeable about the Boston online marketing scene, and offered much-appreciated, genuine, and candid feedback that helped guide my decision making. David helped me land a great job that met my criteria and with the salary that I was looking for. In a sea of recruiters, David really stood out – if you’re currently looking for a new job, you would be wise to work with him.

MD Connect Senior Online Marketing Manager

David is by far one of if not the best recruiter I have ever worked with in my career. David placed me at Holland Mark Advertsing 10 years ago. When I found myself in a similar situation in 2009, David was my first phone call in terms of discussing my career goals and opportunities that were currently available in the Boston market. David understands the discipline of marketing communications and not only acts as a recruiter for his clients but also as a consultant. He works very hard on behalf of his clients to ensure that the fit between employer and employee is the right one. He is available to answer questions and guide the process flawlessly. I’m pleased to have known David for over 10 years now.

Liberty Mutual Senior Marketing Communications Manager

David knows how to find the right candidates for employers and the right employers for candidates. David helped me find my current position and without his industry knowledge, resourcefulness, tenacity, and honesty, I would not have found a job that is the perfect fit with my skills, interest, and experience.

Epsilon Marketing Professional

David has a very unique and inclusive process backed by superb business data, marketing expertise and keen intuitive sensibilities rarely found in the fast paced recruiting world. Unlike other recruiters, when working with David you’ll have someone who believes in you and your vision. One sometimes wonders if David has some magical computing process but in the end it’s his wonderful ability to understand client needs and connect the right talent at the right time.

His can-do attitude, insight and accountability are attributes that I have grown to rely on. The resources I’ve hired through him are star performers. When I have a recruiting need, David is the first person I call.

I’ve worked with David at various points during my career and I can honestly say that he’s the best when it comes to understanding your strengths and aspirations and matching those with available opportunities. Keeps you up to speed, stays on top of the hiring manager and keeps the process moving. A real pro. Two thumbs up!!

It was a pleasure working with David. Always available for questions and ready to provide valuable suggestions/feedback. His knowledge of the job market and companies in the Boston area is outstanding and this surely makes things much easier.

He is very professional and reliable (overall the best recruiter I worked with in the US). Would surely recommend him to others.

Vistaprint Global SEO/Social Marketing Manager

I met Dave several years ago while he was conducting a search for one of his clients. While the position was not right for me, he did take the time to understand my career goals and we kept in touch. Last year Dave told me that he had the perfect job for me – and he was right. Dave listened to what I was looking for and didn’t waste my time with jobs that were not right. During the process, he was very proactive in keeping me in the loop and advocating my candidacy. Whenever someone tells me they are looking for a job, I don’t hesitate to give them Dave’s contact information.

David is fantastic. I have worked with David over the past year as Forrester built out it’s Management Consulting offering. Our bar is extremely high, the skill set is in enormous demand and David consistently delivered excellent candidates. David has a very strong knowledge of the market, truly understands and partners with us and delivers outstanding results. I would highly recommend engaging David for your retained and contingency recruiting demands.

Forrester Research Global Recruiting Leader

As an agency professional, transitioning to in-house/client-side can be a daunting challenge. David helped me transition my career from a PR agency to managing digital and social media marketing at ASICS America. Not only was he my “in” to the company and position before it was publicly posted, he also stayed in constant touch to update me with any news and was always available to chat on the phone before or after an interview to make sure I was doing everything in my power to position myself in the best possible way. I have never met a recruiter that is as excellent a communicator and am eternally thankful for his ability to build such a seamless bridge between employers and potential candidates!

Asics Manager, Digital and Social

David did a terrific job in helping us to identify strong marketing candidates within a very short timeline. He was extremely positive, professional, and responsive throughout the 2.5 month recruiting process. He was able to ramp up quickly and really understood our goals for the search, which resulted in a successful placement for us. I look forward to working with him again soon!

Bain Global Talent Acquisition

David was great to work with. He is highly responsive and eager to help place the right people in the right positions. I would recommend his services to any company or professional looking for career advancement.

Putnam Investments VP, Management Supervisor

The more time you spend in your career, the more important relationships will become in securing your next role. In working with a recruiter you’ll gain access to opportunities that you might not otherwise know about. But, not all recruiters are the same caliber. What separates David from the average recruiter is his relationships with the companies and candidates he serves. David takes the time to really understand what each group is looking for and what success looks like. This has many benefits. First, companies see David as an extension of their team which means if David recommends you, hiring managers will gladly take the time to meet you. Second, David is a great mentor and his in-depth knowledge can help candidates vet opportunities and ensure a good fit.

Forrester Research Managing Director

I had a great experience working with David recently. He was very helpful in providing me the information I needed and always followed-up on my questions in a timely manner. David also provided great insight that helped with certain decisions during the interview process. He truly made the process as easy as possible. I appreciate all of his efforts to help me land a great job.

Beacon Partners Director of Marketing and Communications

David is one of the best executive recruiters in the business. I’ve worked with him as both a candidate and an employer, and he’s excellent in both roles. As a candidate, you really feel he has your best interests at heart, and is going to bat for you. As an employee, he’s working with you to source the very best prospects, and to get your job filled quickly. David comes highly recommended!

Mullen Director of Marketing

David led the recruiting effort, his energy and drive set him apart. But it was his honesty and candor that I actually valued the most. With David, I was able to have candid conversations and he provided an enormous amount of value while I was in the consideration and decisioning process. I would strongly recommend him to any organization looking for that combination of ‘driver with a personal touch.

Capital One Chief Marketing Officer

Our industry of database marketing is kind of unique and takes special candidates with varied skills. We could always count on David to provide us with candidates with the right skills and even additional skills that would enhance their work for us. He is not only very professional but his warmth and great sense of humor make working with him a genuine pleasure.
