“What I liked the most is that BarkerGilmore shares our company’s data-driven, disciplined focus. That really came through throughout the whole process, and from every member of their team. They really know what they are doing.  BarkerGilmore’s team listened well, and we knew that our needs had been internalized based upon the debriefing of each of the candidates, which were spot on. I like how the team tried to broaden our view; they educated us as well throughout the process.”
SAM MUPPALLA
CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER, AMERICAN MEDICAL TECHNOLOGIES
“In choosing a search firm, our criteria were quality and diversity of candidates, responsiveness, communication, sense of urgency, and focus on the client. We also wanted a firm that would represent us well — not just the candidate. I did extensive interviews with five search firms – including the large global ones — and then spoke with client references before choosing BarkerGilmore. They’ve exceeded my expectations. And I would use them again in a minute.”

“BarkerGilmore is a niche firm recruiting General Counsel, which made them very attractive, and they did not disappoint. It was one of the best experiences I’ve had with a boutique firm, and I’ve used quite a few.”
CANDACE PETERSON
