 “I ABSOLUTELY LOVE your Candidate Profile format! They are the most effective recruiting tool I have ever seen. It really allows me to walk into that first interview already feeling as if I know the candidate and allowing me to get real insight into a potential employee.”

Mark Goldstein
CEO, Scott’s Liquid Gold

“The candidate experience working with the Z3Talent team was first class. They were thoughtful, engaging and thorough going deeply into personal and professional drivers. My interest through the process only grew as it was clear that by engaging Z3 for the search it meant the hiring Company was invested in attracting the best candidates and making the right hires.”

Post Hire

Due to our commitment in creating valuable and long-term partnerships, we frequently check in with the successful candidate to ensure they are fitting in well, embracing the challenges, and are happy and productive in their new role. We keep our clients apprised of these discussions and check in with them from their side as well.

 “As I begun a search for my replacement, I selected Z3 because of our professional relationship from a community leadership organization. I could not have been more pleased with my choice as they have brought creativity, organization and a true talent for executive recruitment. Their team spent significant time identifying my firms culture, people, and needs. From there, their execution team was highly effective at building a “connector” network from scratch across a large region. We were able to identify and recruit a top caliber candidate in less than 90 days among several high potential options.”
