Testimonial

“The shared effort took most of the workload of the search away from the college staff, but also allowed us to stay close enough to the process and the candidates that by the time we got to the finalist interviews, we felt like we knew each of them very well… I would not hesitate to recommend J. Davis & Associates to others.”
