"“Gary Hamm and the HPG team assisted the leadership of St. Jude Hospital Fullerton in recruiting a new CEO. All of the candidates presented to the search committee were excellent. The candidates were not only diversified, but all were qualified and extremely knowledgeable. Gary led the committee to fully evaluate each candidate, discuss initial impressions, and after all candidates were interviewed made sure there were no unanswered questions. His stewardship was impartial and balanced, representing every candidate appropriately. Finally, Gary led us in his unbiased manner to discuss, debate, and decide on the choice of a new CEO. The process was fair and the outcome successful. I would recommend Gary and HPG without reservation and would be happy to discuss this recommendation by phone if anyone reading this has further questions."

Gary remains in touch with me before, during, and after the search so I know what the candidates are thinking about my position. He doesn't waste my time or the candidates' time. He is one of the top people in the field."

"I have had the pleasure of knowing Gary for the past four years and of workiing with his firm; first as a candidate for the position I currently hold, and then as a recruiter for several key positions in our hospital. I can say without hesitation that Gary is at the same tiime the most professional and most personable recruiter with whom I ever worked, and his company has done an outstanding job in filling the positions we have had available since my arrival here. The candidates Gary has brought to us have been excellent and the positions have been filled in a very reasonable tiime frame. One of the things I particularly admire and appreciate about Gary is his follow through. He stays in touch with you as a person he has placed in a particular position and, as an employer, he checks with you often to make sure things are working out as planned. I have recommended Gary and his firm to many of my colleagues and will continue to do so."
