I really appreciated the way I could talk to the Naviga recruiter casually. She shared a wealth of information.
Diane Eakin, Territory Sales Manager
Placed with our client Pinpoint Information Systems
We partnered with Naviga for a number of reasons. First, they were excellent communicators. They already had knowledge of the commercial industry, but they quickly got a sense of our business by listening to us and asking great questions. Next, the Naviga team was professional, approachable, and knowledgeable. Specifically, they had an extensive grasp of the European market with a specialization in sales. They also have a team of skilled recruiters and use a proven recruiting process based on years of experience and expertise. And finally, Naviga really formed a partnership with ITN. They were consultative and took the time to understand our needs without overselling.
Heike Tobin
Senior Recruiter, ITN Productions
Once our new hire comes and rocks, we will hire another from you. You will always be my first stop.
PK Karunakaran
VP of Sales, Allsec Technologies
Throughout the whole process, Naviga was super organized and really provided a lot of great background information.
Jennifer Folsom, Sr. Sales Executive
Selerix Systems
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
I felt I was prepared and it did give me a little bit of an advantage knowing some of the details about the role and where they were going with this opportunity and where the company was going as a whole.
Fred Tort, Senior Talent Acquisition Recruiter
Placed with our client InTegrum Resources
Naviga did a really good job of representing my interests and representing the interest of the client equally. It restored my faith in dealing with recruiters and set a new standard.
Brian Purcell, Vice President of Sales
Placed with our client Lockstep Technology Group
The wonderful part about working with Naviga is that I didn’t feel like just a number, I felt like a neighbor. I felt like they were equal parts advocates of me and an ambassador for the client which was a welcome surprise.
Amy Barkley, Director of Enterprise Sales
Spectrio
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.
Jamy Parker, Sr. Sales Executive
Placed with our client Selerix Systems
The difference between working with Naviga and other recruiting firms is that Naviga stuck with me the entire time and truly helped me along the path to making sure that I was successful.
TC Ford, Leader of Business Innovation
Placed with our Client D&H
“One of my concerns was that I was going to pay a lot of money
and just get random resumes. Lucky for me, that’s not what
happened… I wouldn’t hesitate using a recruiting firm if Naviga is, in
fact, the bar. I’ll use Naviga for all future recruiting.”

Why Winning Q1 2027 Depends on Your Q4 Hiring Strategy
In modern corporate strategy, the calendar year starting on January 1 is a dangerous illusion. Business leaders who delay recruitment until the turn of the new year inadvertently sacrifice the entire first quarter to talent sourcing, interviewing, notice periods, and onboarding lag. By the time new hires reach full operational
The Q4 Talent Audit: Re-evaluating Open Roles Before the 2027 Budget Reset
As the year comes to a close, talent leaders face an important question: Are your open positions still aligned with where your business is headed in 2027? An open requisition that has been sitting for 60, 90, or even 120 days deserves more than another round of resume reviews. It

Why Your 2027 Plan Will Fail If You Wait Until Q1 to Start Hiring Key Leaders
The most dangerous assumption in executive strategy is believing a Q1 start date means Q1 hiring. By the time 2027 officially begins, organizations that waited to launch critical leadership searches may already be behind schedule. Executive hiring takes time. Identifying the right candidates, engaging qualified talent, conducting interviews, aligning stakeholders,
