THE RECRUITER YOU CALL WHEN SEARCHES STALL

When Your 30-Day Search Becomes
My Week One

Your search has been open thirty days. HR tried. Another agency tried. Still empty. I specialize in senior roles where automated outreach does not work. Financial services positions requiring specific certifications. Manufacturing roles where qualified people are already employed. I make phone calls until we find your person.

Why Companies Choose Me

When job postings and LinkedIn messages fail, I pick up the phone and find your person.

Phone-First in a Text-Heavy World

While other recruiters send messages and wait for replies, I am making calls. Real conversations get referrals. They surface candidates who are thinking about leaving but have not updated their resume yet. They let me verify certifications before I waste your time with unqualified people.

Multi-Industry Executive Search

I have placed senior financial advisors, plant managers, compliance officers, and manufacturing executives. Over twenty years, you learn the specific certifications each role requires. You learn what questions HR does not know to ask. You learn how to screen for technical requirements that matter.

Honest Feedback, No Wasted Time

I will tell you when your salary is too low. When your requirements do not exist in the real market. When your timeline is unrealistic. Most recruiters string you along for weeks before admitting they cannot fill it. I tell you in the first conversation so you can decide whether to adjust or keep looking.

Has Your Search
Been Open 30+ Days?

Other recruiters already tried and failed. Your search is still empty. Call me and we will figure out whether I can actually fill it or if something needs to change with the role itself.

Great company, friendly staff. I highly recommend using Steven Cardwell if you want the right staff without having to go through many candidates, as with the last recruiting company we used. Their pricing is also very fair, and they are quick to hire!

I've dealt with a lot of recruiting agencies before, some good and some not. ESF is one of the top two agencies on my "tell your friends" list. Zohaib Khan, the recruiter I worked with, is great at keeping communication lines open. He never left me out in limbo wondering what was going on, and he connected me with a hiring manager who, after two interviews, offered me the best position I've ever had! I am grateful to Zohaib and ESF for their hard work at helping me get hired.

Employed but searching for a better fit, I responded to an ESF job posting like I had done with a few other recruiters and forgot about it since I was only passively searching. I got a call saying my resume did not open. Now that's new - it doesn't open but I get a call?! This is customer service at its best from a he'd hunting firm! Usually, you, the job applicant is seen as low and desperate and since the receive a lot of both solicited and unsolicited resumes, they do have a healthy pool to draw from! I responded by immediately sending in my resume in Word, got a call back saying it was received! If this is not being professional, in an industry we you where almost all emails are computer generated, then I know nothing about customer service or being professional! It did not matter if there was a job for me after the initial interview, I knew then that it was a firm I wanted to work with in my search for a better job. 2 days later, an interview was scheduled, then a second interview followed by a job offer! ESF had a human face and we're real every step of the way! The face was Tom Lukasewich, the feel was ESF and together the ESF team spells professionalism and should be a role model to the industry!
