“We engaged DHR International for assistance with a critical chairman recruitment
this past year. We were delighted with both the process and result of the search.
Although there were a number of active searches for chairs in this discipline
ongoing throughout the country, DHR identified a number of qualified and
interested candidates. DHR International, and specifically John Thornton, was
of great assistance in helping us choose which applicants we wished to interview.
As things turned out, we ended up with our top ranked candidate accepting the
position, but we also learned a lot from the other candidates we interviewed.
Frankly, we would use DHR International again.”
