I thoroughly enjoyed working with Simon Meth. He is one of the best recruiters that I have known (top 5!). I love his sense of humor. He is extremely articulate, knowledgeable, and quick minded. But his perception of others stands out above all else. His “read” on candidates is uncanny and very valuable in recruiting. Cathy Akin, Former Vice President of Human Resources, ViaSat Consultant, Akin & Associates
Simon Meth is one of the best recruiters I have come across in my 30+ year career. He pretty much single handedly helped me completely rebuild an 8 person marketing team while I was VP of Marketing at Stac, Inc. His pre-screening of candidates alone saved me a considerable amount of time and meant that I only interviewed top-notch candidates. John Bromhead, Former Vice President Marketing, STAC President, 1-for-All Marketing
Simon was a great help. We had several positions to fill and he did a tremendous job in evaluating and screening candidates in an environment where we received over 1000 resumes in response to our placements. As a result, the investment of our Executives' time through this process was held to a minimum and they were able to focus on their other important duties. We are very pleased with the team he has helped us build. Bill Guerry, EVP and Chief Financial Officer, FutureTrade
I’ve worked with Simon several times since we first met in 1996 when I was Vice-President of Operations for STAC. When Simon asked me to write this testimonial I looked at what I had written over the years: “I’m very pleased with the work you’ve done already on my behalf. The candidates you’re sending me are all at least credible, and you’ve produced good results in very little time after you started. I’m impressed! And considerably cheered concerning the prospects for filling the jobs. Thanks!” “I just received a very nice evening phone call from our candidate for the IT Manager position, very enthused, to tell me that he is accepting our offer. This was an outstanding effort on your part, with apparently stellar results, and is very much appreciated. From all indications available to me, the candidate is a terrific fit to our requirements. Nice job!” These two quotes are typical of my experience working with Simon. He becomes immediately engaged in any assignment he’s working and is focused on producing results. Sometimes the role of staffing consultant can be a challenging one when hiring managers have a heavy load. Simon is somehow able to communicate with hiring managers such that their attention is focused on filling positions quickly with highly qualified candidates. Tom Dilatush, Former CTO, FutureTrade and Former VP Operations, STAC
Simon Meth is one of the most diligent, effective, client oriented recruiters I have ever worked with. He has a very high standard of ethics and it shows in the candidates that he presents. If Simon says that something will be accomplished in a certain period of time, you can be sure that he will stand behind his word. I would highly recommend Simon to anyone that is looking for a team player as well as a hardworking individual. Kathi Dutton, HR Manager, FutureTrade
Mr. Meth did a tremendous job locating and hiring candidates in a very difficult time. He consistently succeeded when others were unable to deliver. Michael T. Liess, Former Vice President Worldwide Sales and Field Marketing, ENCAD Executive Vice President & Chief Operating Officer, TR Systems
While at ENCAD, we had intense challenges in trying to recruit and retain key employees. Simon was constantly striving to understand the true needs of the hiring manager and find the people who would be the best fit, which is not an easy task. In addition, he was able to work with people at all levels to understand and resolve conflicts as well as each individual’s needs. With his help, we were able to retain key people that we would have otherwise lost. In our executive staff, he often was able to identify solutions to problem areas that we were all in disagreement about. Simon can get to really know you and help in ways that you may not have even thought about previously. Charles L. Sharp, Former Vice President of Supplies, ENCAD President, Digital Image Technology
Two of Simon's greatest strengths are his ability to properly match the people we hire to our corporate culture and the ability to clearly understand detailed job requirements and to find candidates who actually meet those requirements. We've also used Simon as a "sanity check interviewer" for candidates we identified ourselves. He has an uncanny ability to discover the undiscoverable about candidates and he has saved us from hiring mistakes on several occasions. Todd Stewart, Former President, Integrant |
