We chose Accelent on the back of an excellent reference and they delivered for us twice.
They took a genuine interest in us and helped us build precise frameworks for both executive profiles we required. Their process was timely and rigorous, but never too heavy. The end results were the right executive leaders for TextNow for both our Product and Engineering teams.”

John Boehmer and the Accelent team have done an amazing job helping us find a Chief Product Officer for Casebook PBC.
From helping us to formulate the role and responsibilities for the job, to reaching out to most of the leaders in the industry and helping downselect to the ideal candidate, the Accelent team helped us every step of the way to a successful hire.”

My experience working with Accelent was fantastic.
– Kelly Wenzel
Chief Marketing Officer, Andela
From the outset of our partnership with Accelent, everything was positively different from my prior experience working on executive searches.
The Accelent team’s approach pushed us to think through not only the ideal candidate profile, but also to define the candidate’s initial priorities and performance goals.
Once the search commenced, the Accelent team leveraged novel technology tools and transparent communication practices to collaborate on candidate feedback and status. The transparency created through Accelent’s approach created speed, efficiency, and quality decision-making. The Accelent team also maintained a business-first focus throughout the search, checking-in how changes in the business might be relevant to the search activities.
The Accelent team leveraged our interactions to gain knowledge about our business and apply that knowledge to advance the search. We built a partnership with Accelent founded in trust, transparency, candor, and curiosity that gives us confidence about continuing to expand our relationship in the future.”

I’m grateful to the Accelent team for their unique and highly effective approach to the search process. Their methodology enabled them to quickly develop a list of highly qualified candidates that met our company’s specific needs. It truly was a pleasure to work with Accelent and I would recommend them highly.”
