In appointing Goodman Masson, we were able to find four candidates in very quick succession

‍

"Having worked with a number of search firms over the previous two years for sales candidates, we had found the process to be both lengthy and time consuming. At Goodman Masson, the Consultants spent time understanding the culture in our business and then unearthing the candidates that fit that culture."
