"The MRG coaching program has been a great success for Hansaloy. It has helped a couple of our good performing employees turn the corner in their careers to reach the next level. It has given them the confidence they need to spring forward off of their strengths. We have found that investing in our good performers has more than paid for itself while helping create a more satisfied employee who is ready to grow."

"Packaging Technologies has retained Management Resource Group for several key employees searches. From Vice Presidents to Executive Assistants, MRG has consistently offered professionals that quickly adapted to our business and culture. Their prescreening and interview process is one of the best, which allows us to interview only the most qualified candidates. I would highly recommend MRG to anyone that is considering conducting a search for quality personnel."

"No matter what skill sets you need, no matter what geographical area…over a dozen searches…there is always the same dedication, professionalism, and sense of humor that makes working with MRG successful and a lot of fun. They get the job done!"

"I have used the services of other recruiters in the past. In most cases, although they were professional, they wanted to close the sale at all costs. MRG’s goal is a long-term relationship. If it is not the right match, they will continue to work, rather than just sell. They spend the necessary time to get the job done. I could not be happier with MRG and their staff."

"We have used Management Resource Group to perform several searches for executive positions at Estes Company, as well as conduct personality testing and evaluations for potential candidates prior to hiring. We have had excellent experience with the quality of candidates and the persons whom we have hired. We have been very pleased with the professional, courteous, and diligent searches … completed, all within tight time frames.

I would also like to commend (MRG) for your outstanding commitment to the community. I admire your integrity and professionalism and consider it an honor when we have the opportunity to work together either professionally or for the community."

"Within a very short timeframe, and in a tight job market, MRG quickly developed an accurate understanding of our needs and a feel for the DMA culture. MRG met all our expectations and delivered us a final candidate who has become an invaluable human asset in our organization."

"I have been in the banking industry for 8 years and have had occasion to deal personally with 10 different recruiting firms. Although MRG works for the employer, their professional staff was the only recruiters that ever took the time to determine what my needs and desires were. Unlike several firms that seem to be interested in short term solutions, it is apparent that MRG’s goal is to provide a pool of qualified, interested candidates to facilitate a long term match." 

"MRG wasn’t interested in just filling the position. They wanted the right person in the right job." 

"After considerable testing and interviewing, MRG presented us with the perfect individual matching the qualifications that were necessary to fulfill the job with the desires of the individual we hired. There is no question that we never would have found this person without MRG, as their exhausted efforts and resources produced the perfect individual. Focus Watertown presented a very unique challenge to the team at MRG, and they certainly rose to the occasion by meeting, if not exceeding, our expectations."

"In our search for a development director, MRG was able to effectively market our organization to qualified candidates, which resulted in a successful hire. Prescreening by MRG saved our selection committee time … Given the limited personnel resources that our organization had to devote, MRG’s search process and evaluation procedures gave us the market penetration and professional skills to connect with the right candidate for our organization’s needs. Our own first attempt at hiring a development director without MRG’s assistance cost us valuable time and lost resources."

"We received exceptional service and support and the expertise of the firm helped us identify an outstanding candidate. The service MRG provided helped lead the development of plans that will chart the future for Palmer. I know I will again turn to MRG for similar (and other management) services as I know they will ‘deliver’!"

"MRG is a top-notch organization with a great deal of professionalism and expertise. They also keep you well informed as you go along through the search process. I feel very fortunate to have discovered the talent they can bring to critical selection problems."

MRG is a key partner with DavenportOne. We are best able to serve our mission and our members by assembling a strong team of professionals, particularly those with diverse and complementary skill sets. Dan Portes and his colleagues at MRG have brought scientific assessment to the challenging area of human resource management. Their approach to executive coaching, assessment and organizational development has been invaluable to DavenportOne as we build and transform our staff and volunteers. From a personal perspective, I learned more about myself and my executive capabilities, strengths and weaknesses by completing the MRG assessments than I have through any other aspect of my career development to date. MRG is a team of professionals, committed to their community and involved at every level as leaders and citizens.

"After being out of the job hunting market for 25+ years, I found MRG a valuable resource. They supplied me with up to date information on the current market and methods for a successful job search. Now as President/COO of a mid-sized industrial conglomerate in the Northeast, I have and am continuing to use MRG and their network for all of our outplacement needs."

"MRG teamed up with Career Decisions, Inc. to provide analysis and direction for a process that was totally foreign to me. I specifically wanted to focus within the healthcare industry. They provided the necessary atmosphere and resources I needed for sourcing and networking new career opportunities. It was very important for me to work with a local organization that understood my needs, that was conveniently located, and that provided competent and professional staff assistance."

"The spousal relocation services at MRG provided a valuable asset in my job search. Being new to the Quad Cities, I relied heavily on the MRG staff for the networking contacts and knowledge of the area, which allowed me to quickly find employment. They continue to be a valuable source of information on the local business community."

"When we relocated to the Quad Cities from Omaha, Nebraska, I was looking for a possible career change. MRG’s staff gave me some excellent materials so I could learn how to market myself better to potential employers. I accompanied a consultant at MRG to a meeting of peers with a similar background and it was there I met an individual who was instrumental in me obtaining a job. This is my third move in 5 years and never before have I received such a great response from the resume MRG helped me create. I had the opportunity to interview with companies outside of my career field and MRG has supported me in so many ways. Because of their efforts, my move to an unfamiliar job market was actually easy, and because of their dedication I know I can count on MRG for continued support."
