"We had a fantastic experience working with Cornerstone Executive Search to fill a key role on our Finance team. Their professionalism, responsiveness, and ability to manage expectations throughout the process stood out from the start. They took the time to truly understand both the technical requirements of our position and the cultural fit we were looking for. As a result, they presented a strong slate of candidates, and we were able to secure an excellent hire. We highly recommend Cornerstone to any organization seeking a recruiting partner who delivers results with integrity and efficiency."

“Absolutely seamless and by far and away my best experience in working with a recruiter! They put EXCELLENT candidates in front of us and filtered through the rest. Only issue I had at all was picking only one of the candidates they put forth! Highly recommended for anyone looking to staff a role they specialize in!”

“Cornerstone did a phenomenal job on our CFO search. They were able to find someone that appears to be a perfect fit. Without a recruiting firm, we likely wouldn't have found this individual as they weren't actively looking for a new role. Cornerstone saved us a tremendous amount of time and frustration if we would have tried to manage this search on our own. ”
