Medical Device Recruiters

Working with Chris Hillman was one of the best professional decisions I’ve ever made! When Chris reached out to me I wasn’t really looking for a professional change and yet we had a great conversation together and Chris got me thinking excitedly about the potentials outside my existing role. And wow, was Chris absolutely right! I have found a position in a company I greatly respect, and the company equally respects me and the experience I bring with me to this new role. This is only the 2nd career change I’ve made in 21 years and I credit Chris with connecting me to the right situation at exactly the right time. The whole experience was seamless and I would absolutely recommend working with Chris!

Chris and his team were outstanding partners as I looked to transition to a new opportunity in my sales career. He listened to what I was trying to accomplish and was quick to get back to me with suggestions on what I should do and where I should start. He also shared some of the opportunities he had available and offered to present me as a candidate for the job I subsequently won. I do feel like I won, and I will always attribute that to Chris preparing me for the interviews, strategizing with me on salary negotiations, and being a confidant during a pivotal juncture in my professional career. I would recommend his services to any Sales Professional looking to improve their professional life.

Chris came exactly as advertised, with a deep list of contacts relevant to our search for a new CEO. We had a working list of highly qualified candidates in a very short period of time, and Chris helped us to manage the process of winnowing the field down to ‘short list’, and ultimately to the final candidate.
