25 Years of Intuitive Placements
25 Years of
Executive Search Experience in the Start Up Space.
APPROACH
SKILLSET + CULTURE + INTANGIBLES
Intangibles matter . . . especially for startups. We help clients move beyond skillset alone to identify culture fit and quantify intangibles. It’s our intuitive approach combined with a rigorous process that delivers real quantifiable results.
SPECIALTIES
Start-ups
Early-stage companies need focused, start-up savvy talent. We have recruited in this space since 1995 and know which candidates will thrive in a start-up environment.
Technology
Technology is a broad term, but our experience is broad too. Our team knows how to identify talent that tech-companies need. We are geeks at heart and started recruiting in tech in 1995.
Sales
Sales are the engine of every company, and Hillman Executive Search understands its importance. Sales have been our expertise from the beginning, and always will be.
Cannabis
The cannabis industry is complex, however, it’s still precision agriculture and B2C at its core. We started in this industry in 2016, know its intricacies, and are pioneers in the space.
TESTIMONIALS
“Dana and his crew are great at identifying and qualifying candidates – no question. But where these guys earn their money is getting the behind the scenes story on candidates. For us, these guys got it done before the interview even took place and didn’t take references at face value. They kept digging so that we had an accurate picture of each candidate.”
Jim Vogt / CEO / Zettaset
Hillman Partners is a great search firm I've used time and time again across several startups. They work hard to really know our story always find the best possible candidates. I have known Dana for years . . . he's someone you can count on! On a side note, he's also a great guitar player / songwriter. Check him out . . . for both!
