Bio
Michael K.
I worked directly with Kim Jones nearly every week during her time with Whitlock. She directly lead recruiting efforts for several segments of my organization and consistently produced top-end talent by partnering with my leaders to understood their needs and their business in general. Kim stayed very organized, and most importantly, listened to what her internal customers were saying (and sometimes what they were not saying), and in doing so gained the credibility needed to be successful in such a fast-paced environment. She came to be trusted as a solutions provider and business partner by some very 'picky' individuals who care to rely on her to vet and produce talent that would comprise their staffs...not an easy task. I would highly recommend Kim for anyone looking to upgrade their recruiting talent and I would welcome the opportunity to work with her again. Please call or email me if you're considering her so I can give you first hand my experiences with her and the results she produced. Thank you, Michael Kalman
