Why Choose Naviga?
We Deliver. They Talk.
My biggest takeaway from working with Naviga was the communication piece. It was how professionally Naviga presented themselves. It was making sure they were also looking out for my best interest.

Working with Naviga made me feel like I had a partner who was very invested in me and that made the entire experience simple. Someone who could reach out to the company so I didn’t have to do all of the legwork. I could really focus on what mattered to me.

I wanted to thank you for being responsible for this amazing new opportunity. Today was my first day and I felt like I was in Oz. I stepped out of a black and white old life into a new life in technicolor. You are my Glenda. Thank you!

Tim McHugh

I am a firm believer in communication and good communication really helped set Naviga apart from the other recruiting firms that I was working with. I was always in the know and any questions I had were always answered on the spot.
Jason Abbey, Director of Enterprise Sales

After my first conversation with Naviga, I had a really good feeling about Bounce Curl. Just to have someone be there for the candidate is a huge, huge deal. Otherwise, we’re just names on paper.

I felt very comfortable and confident in what Briggs was looking for. I could tell that you had worked with this company before and had a good feel for them. And that meant a lot.
David Fee, Sales Manager
Placed with our client Briggs Equipment
Our recent Director of Sales hire is doing amazing – a rock star! He’s a true coach, cheerleader, and he has fun with his team. He’s bringing in more than impressive numbers Q1 – ranked as #1 across the entire company.

The quality of candidates Naviga presented to us were superb. We did not receive any random or unqualified candidates, and the ones that were submitted met all our needs. There was great communication during the process and resulted in two great finalists for our position.
Rich Vecchio
Recruiting Manager, PGA Tour
The individualized service was the best part about working with Naviga. Between Kathleen and Gina we were able to zero in on exactly what I was looking for, they were able to understand what was important to me and the feedback was continual. I’ve had situations where companies go silent for a month and that was not the case with Naviga.
Mike Goddard
VP of Sales, Dekoron Unitherm
I received a lot of information about the company.
I found it to be really helpful to work with a recruiter. It takes some of the pressure off to have someone that you can ask more in depth questions.
