The Experience That Yields Exceptional Results
A FIT ... not just a FindRAY HOLLEY, Executive Search Specialist
My Search Philosophy
Recruiting is a Contact Sport …
Nothing beats experience. With over 30-years of recruiting experience and having interviewed over 50,000 people, I source and recruit only qualified and interested “A-list” candidates for your open positions.
While I employ the latest in sourcing technology, I also believe that recruiting is a “Contact Sport” …
When I started in this business computers didn’t exist. It was done the old-fashioned way. I learned the business by picking up the telephone and calling people. In fact, in those days, success in the recruiting business was directly proportional to the number of times you dialed the phone.
This personal contact created many valuable relationships, some I still maintain to this day. As a result of that early training, I stand apart from today’s definition of recruiting.
Outside of entry-level campus recruiting efforts that focus on specific disciplines, “recruiting” in its purest form, is non-existent. What’s now called recruiting means shot-gunning ads around the job market Universe, hoping that the exact “fit” you need for the position is going to see your ad and send you a resume. I can tell you that “hoping” is rarely a winning strategy.
Compare this to working with an experienced outside recruiter who can represent your company and its key critical positions in the most professional way to their base of established contacts. And that fact alone proves my theory that “Recruiting is a Contact Sport!

To Be a Great Company You Need Great People …
I work with a select group of growing clients who understand that it’s not just a fancy campus, good products and services, and catchy advertising that makes a great company. It’s great people, working together, who make the company a stellar success!
Most companies don’t have the luxury of being a “name brand” that has people “beating the door down” to come work for them. In fact, during any type of economic times, the best and brightest need to be sought out, made aware of your company’s opportunity and then sold on why the position would be a good fit and a great step forward for them on their career path. This is where a seasoned professional like myself excels and how I stand apart from today’s recruiters.
In the mid-1990s, I revolutionized the executive search business with my unique approach to recruiting that eliminated expensive percentage-based fees, retainers, flat-fees, and recruiters chasing commission checks. This new concept quickly caught on, offering clients greater flexibility throughout the entire recruiting process while saving them a substantial portion of their recruiting budgets.
