By the time

your consideration many hours have been spent sourcing,
identifying and screening. If the candidate is well suited to
the job, trust your judgment to move them ahead in the hiring
process. Quantity is not synonymous with quality.

the first meeting with this individual. Enthusiasm may have

situations may have changed, just to name just a few. Your
search firm is usually aware of these potential obstacles and
can help buffer them before extending the offer, eliminating
delays or turndowns. You're paying them for this service,....
let them do their job.
