“ECA is different in the way they manage the entire search process. For our team, this meant a detailed upfront understanding of our business, systematic candidate outreach, interviews, analytical assessments, scheduling support, and offer management. This helped us spend time with only the best candidates.”
Irina Egorova, Vice President
"We engaged ECA for a subsidiary company CEO search. We chose ECA because of their experience in private equity and their commitment to both a tight timeframe and options by funneling a large volume of candidates from their network. What surprised me most though was how they took the time to truly understand the business and its culture, which is so absolutely critical when it comes to key talent decisions. The search process ended with three superior candidates."
Mike Davies, Principal
"ECA has by far the best process. They were transparent upfront that they had never done a VP Engineering search before, but they asked good questions, quickly learned what they needed to, and were great thought partners in the evolution of our thinking on which profiles would be best. We'll definitely call them for future senior leadership searches and project consultant needs."
Alex Amin, CEO
“ECA's management consulting-style quality and processes helped us identify and select the best candidate, fast.”
Ron Bellamy, Chief Improvement Officer
“ECA understood our unique requirements and delivered great candidates with the right skills, personality and attitude. I would highly recommend partnering with them.”
Steven Eldam, SVP Recycling and Supply Chain
“It was one of the smoothest and most enjoyable executive search processes that I have ever experienced. You were focused, efficient, effective and very communicative.”
