"As a long-time member of ThinkingAhead Inc., I can honestly say it is an inspiring and most rewarding company to be a part of. You will meet, network, and become friends with some of the most talented and successful people on the planet. If open-minded to growing business challenges and change, and if willing to share your expertise while learning from others whose business practices are tried and true, this company might be for you! Its core principles & values carry over from its origination date of 1982 and are visible in daily life at ThinkingAhead."

Thinkingahead was an amazing experience. I learned a ton from some of the most talented headhunters/search professionals across a number of industries. They served as springboard in my career progression and I would recommend them to anyone in the recruiting business. A collaborative and competitive environment where you are given the tools you need to succeed.

I have had the pleasure of working at ThinkingAhead for going on 19 years. I came into the company without much knowledge of recruiting. I was taught from scratch how to recruit candidates, earn business with clients, and retain clients. Due to the corporate culture and the integrity of the people I work with I can say it has been a great 19 years.

If you want a very transparent and truthful assessment of this company filled with facts, by all means reach out to me. I am more than happy to tell anyone that considers this company why they should run away as fast as they possibly can. If you are a recruiter, you should know how to find me on LinkedIn. The most immoral and unethical company that I have witnessed in my entire 13 year career.
