The process was very smooth and the team was very communicative + supportive during my interview process. I express extreme gratitude and I believe C-Suite Assistants are a top company to work with. 5 stars across the board.

Working with Gerry Sheridan at C Suite Assistants was a flawless process. Gerry is incredibly seasoned & knowledgable and she made filling this role a piece of cake. She quickly supplied us with high quality candidates and we filled the role in less than a month with someone we believe will be a perfect fit. She understood our unique culture & she really understands the nuances of hiring for this type of role. It was our first time using a recruiting agency & her expertise and experience added a ton of value. Can't recommend Gerry & C Suite enough!! Thank you Gerry!

Our organization rarely turns to a recruiting service but time constraints were preventing us from tapping into high quality job seekers, so I turned to the experts. Linda and her team a C-Suite assistant helped us fill a very high profile Executive Assistant role with a wonderful candidate who is just the right fit for our organization and our executives. I highly recommend both employers and highly skilled and professional candidates to utilize C-Suite Assistants for long term placements of top talent.

The moment I began working with Jacquie and Gerry at C-Suite Assistants, my career search took off!Attempting to navigate the job market on your own is like driving cross country without a map. There are too many companies to research and no way to know who would be the best fit for a mutually beneficial experience. C-Suite Assistants have already created strong relationships with their clients and know how to find the most likely connection. When you become a candidate, they do more than make the introduction, they are there to guide you in best practice, and highlight the strengths you already have that will be of need to a specific role. From setting up an interview and following up afterwards, even coaching in salary negotiations, C-Suite is your personal agent, coach and cheerleader.Landing your perfect job is paramount to enjoying the rest of your life. Don’t think you can do this alone and don’t trust anyone that knows little more than you. C-Suite Assistants set me on the perfect career path and changed my life in less than a month. I could not be more grateful or recommend enough.DanielleEA to CEO – Success Story in the Making

Working with C-Suite Assistants was a smooth, efficient experience. By focusing on key areas of my resume and asking the right questions, Gerry was able to quickly gain an understanding of what wasn’t working for me in my previous job and identify a position that would be more in line with my skill set, experience, and interests. Throughout the interview process with my current employer, she provided encouragement and regular updates in a timely manner. I credit her for landing me in a great work environment. I highly recommend Gerry and the C-Suite team!

I cannot recommend C-Suite Assistants/Coleman & Company enough! Linda was transparent, efficient and overall outstanding to work with. I have worked with a lot of great recruiters but she truly went above and beyond for me. I can honestly say she is the best recruiter I have ever had the chance to work with.

My experience working with Linda was excellent. She helped place me with her client, while providing me with excellent transparency, guidance, and access throughout the process.

I worked with Linda to find a very specific EA that was multilingual. I had been doing a self search for quite some time. Once Linda and her team got involved, we found a fantastic candidate very quickly. They were a joy to work with and the speed at which they found a candidate for such a specific fit was fantastic. I would highly recommend C-Suite Assistants.

I was laid off back in April (due to the pandemic) and applied left and right to several EA/OM positions since, while working with several other recruiters who mentioned how incredibly slow the industry was due to all the hiring freezes.Then applied to a role listed from C-Suites recently in early August and immediately got a call from Gerry Sheridan and immediately she connected me to two amazing firms. Within two weeks and three sets of interviews, I was able to land a role in exactly the position that I was searching for. Thanks to Gerry's efficiency, guidance, and connections, I'm excited to begin again at another work family.

I lost my job during COVID and was applying for tons of opportunities without much luck.I applied to a position posted by Linda on LinkedIn and immediately received a call. Through the whole process she was pleasant, understanding, and encouraging.I did end up receiving an offer and accepting the position.I have worked with many staffing agencies and I can honestly say this was one of the most friendly and professional experiences I have ever had. Thank you Linda.

I applied for an administrative/personal assistant position, a position I have never envisioned myself having after graduation. But, Gerry Sheridan was an amazing recruiter and ally who helped me throughout the entire process. During this trying time with the pandemic, I have applied to as many places as I can. But with the hiring freezes, not many companies have followed up. After I submitted my resume, Gerry has been extremely responsive and supportive in each step of the recruitment process. Even though I was unfamiliar with the role of a administrative/personal assistant, Gerry was very responsive and willing to answer any question I had for her and the executive team. She made sure that I had all the information I needed to make an important decision. Gerry and C-Suite Assistants are the real deal! I am truly thankful to have Gerry with me in this next chapter of my life after college.

Working with Gerry at C-Suites. Amazing! Extremely experienced, incredibly professional and absolutely helpful in identifying the right candidate, especially for a company with international roots. Always approachable, especially during one of the most difficult times we've ever seen and would always recommend C-Suites. Thanks again

I worked on a job search with Gerry from C-Suite for over a year after our initial meeting. She kept me in the loop for some amazing positions and let me choose which ones I wanted to pursue. She helped me land an amazing job recently and I could not be happier. She knows her stuff, is very empathetic to EAs and the challenges they can face and does her diligence in matching her clients with candidates. Massive effort is made to make sure that it's a fit on both sides.I am grateful for her personable, professional and very dedicated attention to my job search. I highly recommend Gerry and C-Suite and will refer friends to her going forward.

Gerry was a delight to work with. She's efficient and professional but her main strength, in my opinion, is gleaning your personality and background in the initial meeting and then finding just the right executive to partner with. It's always stressful finding a job while still in a role, so saving everyone time and effort is a priority and she understands this. This personal attention helped place me in a job incredibly fast.

Working with Linda (and C-Suite Associates) was one of the very best experiences of my professional life. During what can be an emotional journey looking for the perfect career fit as well as finding people that you like working with (and are hopefully in tune with and are inspired by), I felt that I always had an ally with Linda.From the first time we met, it was apparent that she was interested in me and listened to what I had to say concerning the specific work I was seeking. She is honest and straightforward, and I knew that she would tell me the truth about what I asked her along the way. Incredibly, she hooked me up with my dream job. The interview process, though, was long, and there were points during which I got quite anxious. I realized how fortunate I was to have Linda on my side when she listened to my fears and provided calm strength and support (something that never would have been possible with anin-house corporate recruiter).When she delivered my job offer call, I felt the victory belonged to both of us, as it was indeed a team effort. It was an absolute pleasure working with Linda Banta and C-Suite.
