Client testimonials

What our clients say, in their words.

“Compass Group is an exceptional premier recruiting firm. They go above and beyond to find us the right candidate every time. Hans and his team are always professional, accessible, and receptive to our wants and needs. We’re thankful for the relationship we’ve built and look forward to many more great hires from the Compass team!”

Angela JessupHR Manager, Roush Yates Manufacturing Solutions

“I have worked with Hans and his team for 4 years and have over 20+ hires with Compass Group. I believe trustworthiness is the key to success when partnering with a recruiting firm. When Compass Group presents a candidate, they always include an accurate and uninflated pay number, insights on how they screened, and details on what obstacles exist to hiring. Compass Group is outstanding at ensuring we get a “yes” if/when we are ready to make an offer. 10/10 recommend using Compass Group Recruiting!”

Jim HarrisPresident, Harris Manufacturing Solutions

“Hans and his team at Compass Group have been great to work with. They have found and sent qualified candidates to us that are still employed with MacKay Manufacturing today. We also had one that didn’t work out and Hans was great about sending us a replacement candidate. Hans and Compass Group are the first firm I call if I have a difficult position to fill.”

Shannon DrewsHR Director, MacKay Manufacturing

Expertise + technology

Recruiting is still a people business.

Technology helps us search faster and see more. Experience tells us who is actually worth calling. Tenacity gets the search finished.

We search databases, networks and direct-source talent instead of relying only on active applicants. We would rather tell you a candidate is wrong than sell you on a résumé just because a placement fee is available.
