TESTIMONIALS
What they say about Educators’ Collaborative,
Spring 2011
“…[It is] worth noting that the top three candidates (by consensus) all ended up with new Head positions…a credit to EC’s “top of the list.” – Search Committee Chair
“We were very satisfied. [The candidate pool] was deep, there were lots of candidates and a wide range of experience. It was an excellent pool.” – Search Committee Co-Chair
“We are extremely satisfied (with the results of the search). We found our dream candidate and I don’t know how many schools can say that. He is directly in line with who we are as a school.” –Vice Chair of the Board of Trustees, Search Committee Chair
“They were really fantastic. On a scale of 1 to 10, I would give them an 11!” – Search Committee Co-Chair
I have no idea how they coordinate the candidate interviews so seamlessly; they make it look effortless! The logistics were huge – it was amazing. – Search Committee Chair
“I felt like they were giving us their all. I felt like they gave us their undivided attention, like we were the only job they were working on…and I don’t even know if that was the case! They were very hands-on. – Search Committee Co-Chair
“They were always accessible by email or phone. They were very accessible to everyone on the committee, not just the Co-Chairs. It was pretty important and helpful.” – Search Committee Co-Chair
“They were absolutely accessible and their responses were always germane. They were amazing. Both searches, the Interim and the Head, went extremely well.” – Board Chair
“Most firms seem to employ a similar process but we were struck by EC partners’ willingness to be more personally involved in our search and their appreciation for the unique culture of [our school].” – Search Committee Chair
“From my own personal professional experience, I feel like they have a high level of personal interaction and responsiveness. I felt very comfortable asking them anything, even the slightest little thing. I felt like they would help guide us and they did. Their knowledge of the landscape out there (in the independent school arena) distinguishes them.” – President, Board of Trustees & Search Committee Chair
“They were totally professional. The level of confidence and sense of comfort they had with the Board and our community was wonderful…I couldn’t imagine having anyone else.” – Board Chair
“…it really comes down to who they are as people. In terms of their professional experience and as former Heads, they had “been there, done that” and that gave them a terrific advantage in terms of vetting the candidates etc. They had a perfect organization behind them and our feeling was to go with them; they can’t be improved upon.” – Board Chair
