Thorough in approach
"We successfully worked with Hagoort & Partners / Kestria Netherlands to help us fill the position of Managing Director. This Search firm is very thorough in their approach, investing time to learn about our business, people and culture in depth. I believe this was instrumental in helping us to successfully fill the position. We received high quality support and information throughout the process, and we particularly valued the insight and expertise that Hagoort & Partners provided.

Access to varied expertise
"Within our organization we have businesses in several countries in EMEA. Through Kestria we were able to find candidates also outside the territory from which we manage the day to day operation, simply by connecting the network between Hagoort & Partners and Kestria abroad. The approach not only delivered strong candidates and so the luxury of making choices from a high quality shortlist, but we were also very pleased with the professional approach of the searches with respect to planning, communication and feedback."
