Hear from hiring leaders and industry partners who have worked with ACS to strengthen their teams.
As VP of Franchise Operations, I had the opportunity to work with Robert when he was hired as a recruiter for one of our top-performing offices in Texas. From the moment I met Robert during his initial training, I was impressed with his intellect, discipline, drive and passion for the business. Robert quickly became a top producer for his office and region, while his performance consistently fell within the top 10% out of 800 recruiters across North America. Robert’s ability to engage clients and secure long-term trusted relationships was built on his ability to truly understand what the client needed in the ideal candidate and deliver. Of the 1,000-plus recruiters I’ve trained, Robert stands out as possessing a unique balance of expertise in both client development and recruiting. Most importantly, Robert is an outstanding person who works from a strong moral foundation, which comes shining through in all he takes on.
Ellie helped us fill two different positions. At the time, we were working with a couple different recruiters, local and national. Ellie outclassed the others by miles. She was responsive, listened well to feedback and presented well-qualified candidates. She has continued to follow up with us and our new hires after they started. I would recommend her to anyone either looking for a position or someone looking to fill a position. Thank you, Ellie!
After working with Ellie most recently, and her father a few years ago, I can say she is an absolutely amazing recruiter! Incredibly sharp, responsive, and all around a great person to speak to. If you are in the market for a new opportunity, I would highly recommend Ellie!
Robert is one of the finest technical recruiters I’ve had the pleasure to work with over the years.
Robert is an outstanding recruiter. He delivers candidates who have the right experience and qualifications as well as the cultural fit needed for our company. Robert takes the time to thoroughly understand the business, the culture, the values, and the expectations of each position. Robert is one of the very best in the industry.
