Senior Safety Coordinator "There are two qualities to consider when choosing a placement firm; professionalism and confidentiality. Keystone Consulting exceeded my expectations in each category." Senior Project Manager I recently had the good fortune to become involved with Keystone on my recent job search. While throughout my career I have been reluctant to deal with recruiters, Keystone has changed my feelings totally. My consultant was always helpful and informative but never pushy or overbearing. His council was greatly appreciated. Therefore, I highly recommend Keystone. Project Executive After 30 years in the construction business, I have talked to many "consultants" who were looking to fill this or that position. I have only talked to one "person" who truly understood the people and culture of his client company. Who worked for their needs, but also had my best interest in mind. Someone whose passion for his work coupled with his ability to present the opportunity created a path for both my new employer and myself. My decision to join my new firm was the natural path one takes when trust and mutual respect are your guidepost. Thanks to Keystone I was able make a career change with the utmost confidence and I’m excited about the future. Senior Estimator I will for sure recommend your services. Once again, I want to thank you for your help. I know you are in the business to do what you do, but you added a little more than just business. Senior Project Manager I have not forgotten about Keystone, you, or the assistance you provided me during months of interviewing and negotiating. I always felt very comfortable speaking with you about my career goals, my concerns, etc. Most of the search firms / recruiters would find a company and schedule an interview for me. But Keystone was there throughout the process from interview preparation to negotiation, even offering guidance in proper resignation and finally making the transition to a new company. Senior Project Manager "Keystone Solutions is intune with the industry. Keystone did a great job identifying opportunities that fit my expertice. They kept me informed, and diligently worked with me every step of the way in a very knowledgeable and professional manner. Keystone Solutions is a sincere Client/Customer oriented organization".

I wanted to drop you a note and show my appreciation for placing me with a great employer. It is hard for an individual to make a change after being with the same company for 27 years, but you made the transition easy which makes for a great new beginning. I am thoroughly enjoying my new employer and fellow employees, as well as the challenges that may lie ahead. Thank you very much for all your work on my behalf. If I hear of individuals looking for employment, I will surely refer them to you because your company is a top notch organization. Healthcare Senior Superintendent $2BL CM/GC I was talking to a friend yesterday and I thought about you...we were talking about new jobs/promotions. She told me that her husband doesn't seem to get raises/promotions like he thinks he should and seems to get passed over. I told her that a person doesn't always get what they deserve, BUT they do get what they negotiate! I was reminded of how you negotiate for others.....keep up the good and noble work of placing people so they can make a living! Thank you. Project Executive "David, unlike many that I've worked with, really taking the time to listen to candidates and to understand what makes them tick. He respects the candidate's desires and goals - never pushing for a quick decision that would benefit him more than the candidate. He's a pleasure to work with and I'd highly recommend him to others." Top Qualities: Personable, Expert, High Integrity Business Development/Marketing Director
