"When we started our search for a qualified candidate to assist me in our bank’s Credit Administration function, I contacted Management Recruiters of Newburgh to find a seasoned credit person.
The search began in mid-February 2005 and by mid-March, we had a very qualified candidate on board who has proven to be an invaluable asset to our bank. The knowledge and contacts of Management Recruiters of Newburgh helped solve our Human Resource needs very quickly.
All the dealings that I have had with Management Recruiters were handled very professionally and confidentially. Also, without the assistance of MR Newburgh, we may not have found "just the right person" to fill the position requirements and within a reasonable time frame.
Our bank President and myself are more than satisfied with the services that we have received from this firm and rest assured that if we need a recruiting search in the future, we will contact Management Recruiters of Newburgh again. "
