You are the guru and I will always call on you for my recruitment needs. You should probably thank pops one more time for the great gene pool.

We are very excited to have Bob join us. He is great — I like him a lot. Please don’t forget I have two more positions I’d like you to fill!

I was very impressed with how this turned out. I was very impressed with how quickly several strong candidates were sourced. I think Doug did a very good job of listening and understanding what we were looking for and did a good job of preparing each candidate without going too far so that we were able to get an honest assessment of each candidate.

My experiences with Doug and his company Franchise Search have been beyond wonderful. I have turned to Doug many times for guidance into career counseling and employee recruiting. While Doug was working with me his approach was simple: Do not prescribe the solution before he diagnosing the problem. Doug went above and beyond in placing me in my last position and I felt like he was doing it for me and not for the payout. I have the utmost respect for Doug, his company, and his staff. I would recommend Doug and Franchise Search to anyone looking for work or a franchisor looking for talent.

This was the first time I have used recruiter. Working with you has been awesome. You really listened and pushed just enough to keep me moving forward when I was covered up with work. I think you brought us the perfect fit for the culture of our company. Best!

I first used Doug’s firm in 2001 while recruiting a franchise sales team for Regus, and again recently when recruiting the head of our franchise program at Serendipity Labs.  He and his team identified, sourced and vetted a solid set of senior level candidates that met our requirements for SVP of Development at Serendipity Labs.  Doug managed the contact, introductions, follow-up calls, meetings and offers with a very high degree of professionalism and transparent communication.  Doug is the “go-to” recruiter for franchise talent, with his deep, longstanding connections in the industry and a great, well-deserved reputation.

When it comes to franchising, nobody knows talent like Doug! He’s a well connected recruiter that understands the needs of franchise organizations and matches well qualified candidates to meet those needs. I could always count on Doug for sound advice when searching for hard-to-find or impossible-to-find talent! He’s a joy to work with, has an amazingly easy going personality and makes an excellent business partner for any HR Professional in the franchise world.

Doug and his team at Franchise Search make the recruiting process easy.  Within days of reaching out to them I had excellent candidates to speak to, and all of the phone screening was coordinated by Doug’s professional team.  The caliber of candidate has been outstanding and I absolutely recommend Franchise Search for your recruiting needs.

Thank you! You guys did a great job of providing us with outstanding candidates. Beginning with eight quality resumes to choose from, we selected six candidates for interviews with our management team. All six candidates were so strong that a lively debate ensued among the management team just to decide whom should be called back for a second interview. Three candidates went through the second interview process and our choice for the position has already begun his employment. Within his first week he has had an impact on our company. Doug, as you know, we were so pleased with your work on this project that we have engaged you for yet another — and surely equally as successful — search.

My expectations were more than met when I worked with Doug Kushell and Stacie Magurno on a franchise sales search. Doug impressed me with his grasp of the marketplace and candidates. And Doug and Stacie always were quick and exacting with their follow up. I would work with them again in an instant.
