“We tried on our own for several months to fill a position. We spent a lot of time and a lot of money and were unsuccessful. We would not have been able to fill this position without Naviga.”
ALLEN SCHWERINER, PRESIDENT, HANDY TECH
“It was extraordinary, the amount of detail and specifics that Naviga went into to make sure the people we were being connected with were high-caliber and very well versed in who we were and what we were looking for to fit our culture.”
RYAN KRANTZ, DIRECTOR OF OPERATIONS, BLACK DIAMOND FUNDING
“I thought, I am either going to have to find a really good sales person or I’m going to have to find someone very experienced in our industry. I didn’t anticipate to find both. But Naviga nailed it!”
CINDI REED, VICE PRESIDENT SALES AND DEVELOPMENT, APARTMENTDATA.COM

Naviga has a team of good listeners and asked some great questions when learning about us. They had the desire and ability to customize a search to our needs. Naviga listened to our ideas and were able to overlay them with their expertise to find us some great salespeople.
Sven Kins
Managing Director, Cook M&A
The quality of candidates Naviga presented to us were superb. We did not receive any random or unqualified candidates, and the ones that were submitted met all our needs. There was great communication during the process and resulted in two great finalists for our position.
Rich Vecchio
Recruiting Manager, PGA Tour
The change has been night and day, quality and quantity, since bringing on the 4 Sales Managers Naviga found for us. We are now focused on strategic areas and are in front of our customers repeatedly, driving the sales force, retention of clients and frequency – the sales hires lived up to their word, couldn’t be better, we’re having double-digit growth year after year.
Michael O'Neill
President, WERMA-USA
To move your company in a new direction from where it’s been before, you need someone outside of your network and even outside of your industry. That’s where we received a lot of value from hiring Naviga as our sales executive search firm. They were able to cast a wide net and give us the confidence to know that we were finding the best Sales Leader. We got exactly what we were hoping for.
Craig Anderson
Vice President of Strategic Partnerships, Student Connections
The individualized service was the best part about working with Naviga. Between Kathleen and Gina we were able to zero in on exactly what I was looking for, they were able to understand what was important to me and the feedback was continual. I’ve had situations where companies go silent for a month and that was not the case with Naviga.
Mike Goddard
VP of Sales, Dekoron Unitherm
Naviga’s response time, as far as the cycle from needing to hire to we have hired, was timely. I definitely felt like whenever needed, Tracey or Kathleen would reach out. There was constant communication.
Cara Swanson
Business Development, Equipco
I was very impressed with Naviga’s services; they screened good quality candidates and really understood the scope of the available position. I feel I received a fitting candidate and I’m very excited!
Tim McHugh
Regional Sales Manager, SimplexGrinnell
Naviga doing the vetting process, being selective with candidates and having reasonable fees is a benefit to me. There’s a true vested interest in being successful & I liked the proactive communication between Kathleen, Julia and myself.
Reid Wilson
HR Director, Briggs
We partnered with Naviga for a number of reasons. First, they were excellent communicators. They already had knowledge of the commercial industry, but they quickly got a sense of our business by listening to us and asking great questions. Next, the Naviga team was professional, approachable, and knowledgeable. Specifically, they had an extensive grasp of the European market with a specialization in sales. They also have a team of skilled recruiters and use a proven recruiting process based on years of experience and expertise. And finally, Naviga really formed a partnership with ITN. They were consultative and took the time to understand our needs without overselling.
Heike Tobin
Senior Recruiter, ITN Productions
Once our new hire comes and rocks, we will hire another from you. You will always be my first stop.

It felt like we were true partners with Naviga and that was really big. They took the time to understand who I was, who the firm was, what our needs were and our pain points. Instead of feeling like a business transaction, there was a partnership in Naviga helping us find the right person for the right reasons.
Nicholas Halar
Senior HR Associate, Forensic Risk Alliance
Our recent Director of Sales hire is doing amazing – a rock star! He’s a true coach, cheerleader, and he has fun with his team. He’s bringing in more than impressive numbers Q1 – ranked as #1 across the entire company.
