"Krista Bradford and team are perhaps the most vital resource I’ve ever used for executive search. What sets them apart from other firms is their ability to quickly come up to speed on the recruiting need and rapidly engage with potential candidates. They consistently deliver “rock stars” by leveraging their extensive industry contacts. Simply put, this team “gets it”. They deliver. I give the Good Search my highest recommendation. I could not be effective in doing my job without them.” -- Glenn Fox, VP Executive Recruitment , AOL, LLC
“Krista is one of search's most brilliant minds. She is extraordinarily professional and one of the most connected recruiters in the business.” -- Danielle Monaghan, HR Director - China R&D, Microsoft Corporation
“I have worked with Krista and her team for more than 8 years and have been very pleased with the level of service and professionalism. She has a grasp of the recruiting like I have never seen before and continues to come up with innovative ways to generate candidate interest and enthusiasm. The Good Search has worked on numerous searches for me now and all have had excellent results. I plan on continuing to use this resource as I know the professionalism this organization brings to my arsenal of recruiting resources. ” -- Mike Gore, Strategic Recruitment, Intel
"Research in executive search practices is part art and part science. It requires the ability to dive deep and quickly sort for the nugget of information that breaks bottlenecks and makes our work move faster. Partnership isn't easy in the virtual business models, yet Krista delivers as though she's in-house. Krista Bradford delivers art and science with integrity and laser like precision. Do you get the idea we like her a lot?" -- Robin Reed, Principal & Founder, ReedShay
"We retained The Good Search on the recommendation of technology and Internet analyst Esther Dyson to conduct our search for a Chief Executive Officer of Living Systems, Inc. We have found Krista Bradford's recruiting to be highly responsive and extremely adept at finding best-of-breed candidates where other recruiters haven't yet looked. She calls it investigative recruitment. Whatever the name, she's delivered quality candidates from all the best places - Oracle, i2, SAP -- and has served as the consummate consigliere on the 'art of the deal.' Having worked with over two dozen national executive search firms throughout my career, I have yet to work with any that have taken the time to learn our business as The Good Search has . . . The main point of hiring an Executive Search Firm is to get results: highly qualified candidates in the door as soon as possible, with minimal effort and disruption in your daily business life, and with The Good Search that's what you get: results." -- Lisa Trabucco, Director, Human Resources, Living Systems, Inc.
"We were a startup looking for an experienced CMO with a national reputation. We met with the blue chip executive recruiting firms and with a few boutiques. After weighing the positives and negatives of each firm, we retained The Good Search. Without being hampered by noncompete clauses, The Good Search quickly scheduled interviews with 10 experienced and well-known CMOs. We ended up signing one of the most sought after CMOs in America, who has been listed in Advertising Age's Power 50 for the past 3 years and ranked in the top 5 this past year. Krista Bradford deserves accolades for her consistently hard work ethic (routinely taking my calls late into the evening) and for delivering results within the promised time frame." -- Jeff Drubner, CEO. Proxy.com (A startup backed by Akamai VC Todd Dagress of Battery Ventures and David Callan of River Delta)
"Krista really came through for us on one of our most critical hires. She knows how to consider technical skills and experience as well as cultural fit. Not only did she find the right person, she personally assisted us in every step of the closing process to make sure we were able to bring the new hire on board as quickly as possible. Throughout the recruiting process, Krista provided valuable information on candidates, the marketplace, and compensation information. She really performs as a part of the team and makes herself available anytime, day or night. We look forward to continuing to work with Krista on filling our most critical positions." -- Sheila Beauchesne Donahoe, CIO, Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia
“Krista has been fabulous to work with and the quality of her work is supreme!” -- Monica O’Neil, Recruiter, AOL LLC
