We used ThermoStaff for a senior operations leadership role where the cost of a mistake would have been enormous. The process was structured, thoughtful, and confidential from start to finish. They didn’t just evaluate resumes, they helped us think through what kind of leader we actually needed and then went out and found that person. The executive we hired has already changed the way our business runs. This was real executive search, not recruiting.
CEO, Multi-Branch HVAC Services Company
We had been struggling for months to fill a senior project management role and kept seeing the same mediocre profiles from general recruiters. ThermoStaff took the time to really understand our operation and what success actually looks like in our environment. They brought us a short list of candidates who were all relevant, all qualified, and all people we would have hired. The person we chose has been a game changer for our project execution and client relationships. This was a completely different experience than working with typical recruiters.
VP of Operations, Commercial Design-Build HVAC Contractor
Before ThermoStaff, hiring was completely reactive and everything ran through me. We were constantly rushing decisions and paying for it later. They helped us put structure around how we hire, onboard, and manage people — and then actually ran the process with us. The quality of our hires is better, turnover is down, and I’m no longer buried in HR and recruiting. For a company our size, this has been incredibly valuable.
