Be The Leader

Be The Leader

We bring leaders, change agents and clients together to make magic.

Talent acquisition is serious business best managed by experienced people of judgment. It demands diligence in approach, in thought, and in execution. Sourcing is easy. Discerning the truth is hard. We revel in that process.

Diligent Partners LLC is a full service retained search and consulting firm founded and managed by diligent people. We demand more of ourselves in order to deliver outstanding outcomes for our clients.

ABOUT

Clients retain our firm for recruitments that require more than keyword searches against applicant databases, algorithms or job postings that attract mainly the unemployed. Commodity level roles, they can fill themselves, because those searches are about the numbers. They retain us for our consultative expertise to seek out, vet and recruit the best A-Players possible, to accomplish incredible things as change agents with newly defined skills or abilities. For critical needs that did not exist until today.

Testimonials

"We just completed a long and challenging search with Diligent Partners for a partner-level executive for our management consulting firm.  Completing a search like this for a small, culture-driven firm was no easy task, and we put both George and Scott through the ringer with our selectiveness, stubbornness, and hundreds of questions.  Both George and Scott did a great job working with us, walking us through all the details, and most importantly, finding several extremely well qualified candidates for us to meet with and ultimately hire.  Our search came with some self-inflicted bumps along the way, and I was impressed with the manner in which Diligent Partners stuck with their commitment to us from day one to the first day on the job of our new executive.  We liked their candidates so much, we ended up hiring two."

"George and Scott have just completed a most professionally effective engagement for one of my critical IT Director positions.  Every step of the process was made clear and was executed with precision.  Their sourcing generated for my organization a viable cadre of leader-candidates whose credentials were aligned with our requirements and yet reflected variations in focus, personality, and style.  Their assessments were spot-on, just the right balance of reality and optimism.  Their leader-candidates were so well qualified that even those not selected proved to be strong candidates for other opportunities in my organization.  DP's work is the most satisfied I've ever been with an executive search firm's performance."
