”Partners Alliance provided recruitment services for me in my role as the PDG Director for Hatch in our Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania office. They provided qualified technical and management candidates for a wide range of heavy industrial and energy projects. These included both Contract personnel and direct hires. During periods of heavy recruitment Partners Alliance stationed a dedicated recruiter within our offices to enhance communication and expedite candidate reviews with the technical managers. I would highly recommend Partners Alliance to recruit both office and field staff for companies requiring engineers, managers or construction personnel for major CAPEX projects.”

Partners Alliance has a very structured unique approach that utilizes multiple resources for each opportunity, maximizing the focus and means to generate high quality candidates in a timely fashion. Their upfront approach of in-depth interviews with the hiring manager by a number of recruiters to thoroughly understand the parameters of the position generates candidates that definitely have the skills and qualifications to fill the assignment. They are very thorough in following up with details and communication throughout the process regardless of the status. They have been diligent in closing the offer and provide flexibility on how best to attain the win/win solution both parties are seeking.
Jim and his team have demonstrated the highest ethical standards and professional integrity required to be successful in this business, and it is the reason that we utilize their firm for our high level staffing needs on a regular basis.”

“When I needed quality talent, the Partners Alliance team took the necessary time to understand not only the job requirements, but to also learn the culture of my organization. I wasn’t flooded with unqualified candidates. Instead I was presented with 3 or 4 individuals that were thoroughly screened, clearly met the job requirements, and most importantly were the type of person that had the same goals as my team.”
Phil Spano, VP of Product Development & Technologies at Bookminders Inc.
“I have worked with Partners Alliance for over three years now and have been extremely satisfied with the quality of work they have provided. Jim has industry experts on his team and they use their backgrounds and real world experience to qualify the best possible candidates, weeding out candidates that are not qualified or not a cultural fit.”
Mick Witenski, Human Resources Manager at Calgon Carbon Corporation
“Jim is a very hands-on and proactive placement professional. His approach to the recruiting for my position moved at a speed I rarely find in other recruiting professionals. Although he clearly takes the time to understand the requirements up front, he did an excellent job in my case of refining the hiring criteria and translating that into a potential candidates list. His pace exceeded my expectations in terms of speed, quality and quantity of high potential candidates. From initial contact to vetting qualified candidates Jim was available by phone, email or text daily moving the process forward. In terms of approach with the candidate, Jim is customer centric and allowed me to customize the contacts with each candidate in a varied approach, rather than a one size fits all mindset. If you are looking for an efficient and proactive recruiting partner, Jim is your man.”
Jim McCarley, Omada International
