Westport One Testimonials

"I have only worked closely with Duane Wingate during the time I have done business with Westport One, so I do not have a true understanding if Duane's methodology is the exception or the norm at Westport One. I will say, however, that he is by far the best recruiter I have done business with in my career. I have elaborated on one of the key components of the process when using an outside recruiting firm to Duane, and simply put it is the knowledge that when you hand over a search to a recruiter, they get the same pit in their stomach knowing how important finding the right candidate as quickly as possible is, and they will conduct the search as if they have something to lose by not filling it, not only the opportunity to gain. Duane gets that concept, and he approaches each search as if he is truly a part of the team and as if he is truly responsible to fill it, not only that he stands to profit by filling it. That is the largest differentiator with my interactions with Duane as compared to other professional recruiters, and that is why Duane has become my "go to" person for nearly all of our critical hiring needs. If you can get all members of your group truly conducting their business with the same approach and philosophy, you will have very little true competition."

"During a recent search for qualified candidates, I was most delighted to be partnered with Mary Risse of Westport One for my recruiting needs. The current economic recession caused many positions to be vacated and/or lost. With Mary's knowledge of the industry, in addition to attention to my need, she presented me with several candidates who were all very qualified. Each candidate was prepared, articulate and had history in the industry as a professional, which were key for the open position."
