Client Testimonial #1
To whom it may concern,

I have worked directly with Jeff King since 2006, including my current role as Director of
QA/RA at Pivot Medical.
Jeff understands the requirements for any potential open position because he takes the
time to listen and understand my needs. I never have to worry that Jeff will use a
“shotgun” approach and overload my ‘Inbox’ with resumes that miss the mark. He uses
well-honed communication skills and never hesitates to contact me directly before
submitting a potential candidate. Jeff is always considerate of my time. He is thorough
and organized in his approach which leads to efficient teleconferences/communication.

I continue to work with Jeff because he:
•        Takes the time to listen
•        Understands the value of forging a long lasting business partnership
•        Works with a sense of calm urgency
•        Is an excellent communicator
•        Is honest, truthful, and cooperative

I know that Jeff is not in the business to make ‘a quick buck’. He is a reliable, trustworthy
resource who has my best interest in mind. In my fifteen years of experience, the proof is
always in the end result. Candidates represented by Jeff have gone on to become key
contributors and successful team members. When staffing needs arise, Jeff King is the
first person I contact.

Client Testimonial #2

As the Human Resources manager for a small company, I am directly responsible for
all HR functions including recruiting and hiring the best candidates.   I consider this my
most important responsibility, and the one that can take up the majority of my time.  
Therefore, I work with only a few recruiters who I trust to support me in this search.  

I have worked with Jeff King for several years and give him my strongest
recommendation.  Jeff is very knowledgeable of the device and biotechnology industry
and has a large contact base from which to find the best candidates for my jobs.   

Jeff is thorough in understanding the requirements of each open position.  He is
considerate of my time, as well as conscientious in his follow up.   He is a pleasure to
work with.

Client Testimonial #3

To Whom It May Concern:

I have worked with Jeff for approximately three years. My first experience with
Jeff occurred when I was given the task to build a new regulatory group as a
result of a corporate acquisition. As part of this goal Jeff has systematically
provided us with high quality resumes. Although we did not always bring on board
all candidates presented, budgets and specialized skill sets being limiting
factors, proposed candidates systematically ranked amongst the most experienced.
Those candidates who were eventually brought on board proved to be assets to
the organization.

In my working with Jeff, I have found that he takes particular time and
interest in understanding his client’s needs and demands. On many occasions I
have spent significant amount of time discussing such needs with Jeff.
Discussions have always been frank and candid. In return Jeff has taken this
feedback and matched a number of candidates to such needs, always providing us
with high caliber candidates.

I would not hesitate to recommend Jeff King as a recruiter to anyone in
regulatory management.

Client Testimonial #4

To Whom It May Concern:

As the President and CEO, I worked very closely with Jeff when we were recruiting for a
Director of Clinical Affairs. I considered recruiting the correct candidate for this Senior
Staff position a very important responsibility, and I worked only with select recruiters on
this search. Jeff was very knowledgeable of the medical device industry and was very
thorough in soliciting information from me so he fully understood the requirements of
the position. He was considerate of my time, and conscientious in his follow up.

Jeff’s candidate was the one that was eventually hired by us. He was very involved
during negotiations with the candidate and was instrumental in the candidate’s final
decision to accept our employment offer.

He was a pleasure to work with and I am pleased to give him a strong recommendation.

Joe T. - President & CEO


CANDIDATE TESTIMONIALS

Candidate Testimonial #1
I recently had the pleasure of working with Jeff King of Professional Placement
Specialists Inc.  For reasons of confidentiality, I was hesitant to use the services of a
professional recruiter.  However, I was very pleased with the service Jeff provided as he
acted with discretion and integrity throughout the interviewing and hiring process.

One thing I would like to say about his service that I particularly appreciated was the time
he spent helping me prepare for interviews.  He really did a good job in providing me
with information on the company, the products, and specific information regarding what
they were looking for in a candidate.  Also, I appreciated his timely follow-up after each
interview.

The preparation and helpful suggestions helped me to get the information out of the
interview that I needed to make an informed decision about whether or not the job was
right for me.

I give Jeff my highest recommendation.

Sincerely,

Jean C.

My thoughts of working with Jeff King
I worked with him on a move from Minnesota to California for a position in Regulatory
Affairs. Jeff was not only very knowledgeable about the company he set me up with but
also with the department I would be working in which gave me the insight I needed in
order to base my decision on whether to make the transition.
I especially appreciated Jeff's attention to the right fit in personalities of both mine and
the company were I was interviewing.
Working with Jeff was very seamless. He was professional, courteous, and patient. He
was very helpful with keeping things flowing. I especially like his business ethics in
negotiations as well as genuine desire to make sure things worked out.

Jeff is a great guy to work with, thorough professional, very well connected and
proactive. He helped me with finding the right audience in my job search. And, was there
for any help/ information from the beginning to the very end of the recruitment process.
For me, he changed what seemed like a stressful and time-consuming job to
something that had a quick turnaround and was fun!”
