What People Are Saying (Home Page)

Our clients' words say it best


We've earned the trust of organizations who count on us for peace of mind and reliable results.

"Kimberly (TLR Search, Managing Director) has been a great recruiting partner for us. She has been able to help us find a number of team members for our rapidly growing company. One of the things I appreciate the most is the feedback I've gotten from team members she found for us as well as folks we didn't hire. Kimberly represents the company very well in an industry that sometimes gets a bad reputation. I am blessed she assists us like she does." 

Director Human Resources
Private Equity-Backed E&P Company

As an HR leader, I've engaged with multiple search firms for high-level searches. Now that I'm on the "other side" as a candidate, I've worked with many as well. You have been one of the best, if not THE best, I've ever had the pleasure of working with. 

Not only do you know your stuff when it comes to your client's business and expectations, you are thoughtful with candidates as well. You are responsive, professional, timely and encouraging. All qualities that mean so much to candidates who are going through an emotional and uncertain time. 

VP HR

TLR  is both professional and a pleasure to work with. From the initial meeting to scope out our recruiting needs to her frequent and informative follow-ups throughout the search process, communication excelled.
