"At the beginning, I remember saying to myself, all search firms are the same, over promising and under delivering. I have dealt with a large number of search firms over almost 30 years and have never received this kind of service. It’s just been fantastic from start to finish."
JOSEPH NAPOLITANO
SVP, CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER, ACADIA REALTY TRUST
“I’ve used several legal recruiters over the years and the BarkerGilmore team is the best of the bunch. They gave me the most useful interviewing advice I’ve ever received, a short list of key points (dos and don’ts) to remember and apply, which worked. The points seem obvious in retrospect but they are surprisingly fresh and direct. It’s worth the time to call them just to get that list, but you’ll be happy with the bottom line as well – a job!”
EDWARD DELK
GENERAL COUNSEL & CHIEF COMPLIANCE OFFICER, ADVENT CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
