C-Suite Assistants Testimonials

I would highly recommend C-Suite Assistants to anyone looking for capable and qualified candidates for their organization. What started off as a cold call to their office quickly turned into a productive search with excellent results. Linda Banta was extremely attentive to our needs and efficient in identifying several great candidates on a tight timeline. We are very pleased with the outcome and appreciate how easy Linda and her team made the process. Thank you, Linda and C-Suite Assistants!

I struggled with finding the right team members. Consistently. I had a discovery call with Gerry and Kristin and felt confident that they could find the right fit for my growing law firm. I didn't think they would knock it out the park so quickly. Literally, the first candidate they sent was perfect. I asked them to place someone for an additional position. Again, first candidate was a rockstar.

I'm so relieved and glad that I took the leap to hire C Suite Assistants to find my core team members. I recommend you do the same. You wont' regret it.

Nailed it on the first try with three stellar candidates.

C-Suite Assistants was a huge help to my organization and our newly joined CEO. They were incredibly responsive and very professional all the way through. We identified our hire of choice on the first submission. Would highly recommend C-Suites.

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!

Gerry Sheridan of C-Suite Assistants and I met in NYC many years ago. We’ve both kept in touch over the years and will continue to stay in touch.

Gerry’s style is intentional and personable. The process felt more like a partnership than a placement. The role presented prioritized fit. I received thoughtful insights about the opportunity.

I recommend C-Suite Assistants and specifically Gerry Sheridan to professionals seeking selective and personalized recruiting experience. I’m extremely pleased with my new opportunity.

Working with Gerry at C-Suite Assistants was an exceptional experience. Her professionalism and guidance throughout the process were seamless, making every step clear and comfortable. Gerry took the time to understand my goals and connected me with a wonderful new team that I’m truly excited to partner with and grow alongside. I can’t recommend her enough for anyone looking for expert support and an outstanding career match.

Working with Kristin Arkema at C-Suite Assistants was one of the most positive and impactful recruiting experiences I’ve ever had.

Let me tell you why.

After being out of work for far longer than I ever expected, I had reached a really difficult point. Despite having strong experience and doing everything I could (networking, applying, refining my approach) it felt like nothing was landing. The longer the process dragged on, the more discouraging it became. I found myself applying to roles well below my experience level simply because the uncertainty had become so overwhelming.

Then I received a call from Kristin.

From our very first conversation, it was clear she was different from any recruiter I’d worked with before. She didn’t treat me like just another candidate to place, she treated me like a partner. She took the time to truly understand my background, strengths, and the kind of role where I could genuinely add value.

Kristin thoughtfully analyzed my experience and introduced me to opportunities that were not only credible but aligned with my skill set and career trajectory. Throughout the entire process, she was incredibly supportive, encouraging, and engaged. She checked in consistently, made time whenever I needed guidance, and helped me navigate every step of the interview process with confidence.

What truly sets Kristin apart is the human element she brings to her work. She genuinely cares about the people she represents. In an industry that can often feel transactional, Kristin operates with empathy, integrity, and a level of professionalism that is rare to find.

What started as a daunting and draining job search actually became an exciting and motivating process with her guidance. Ironically, I’m going to miss our conversations and strategy sessions.

If you have the opportunity to work with Kristin, you are in exceptional hands. She’s not only a master of her craft, she’s someone who truly advocates for the people she represents. Working with Kristin is a testament to what strong leadership and genuine care for people can accomplish.

A special hats off as well to Linda White-Banta, Director of Recruitment. I’m incredibly grateful I first connected with Linda years ago. Her leadership, professionalism, and values set the tone for the entire organization which reflects throughout the rest of the team.

More broadly, I cannot say enough about C-Suite Assistants as a firm. In my opinion, they are the gold standard in this country for Executive Assistant and senior administrative placements. If you are serious about building a career in this field, this is the organization that can help shape and elevate your path.

Kristin has been a phenomenal recruiter to work with as she is 100% professional, extremely personable, meticulously attentive and extremely responsive.

I am very happy that I was able to be placed through Kristin.

Kristin is by fat the BEST recruiter that I have worked with.
Highly recommend you utilize C -Suite Assistants for your Executive Assistant search as they are the most professional and sincere people to work with. I will refer Kristin to anyone I know that is looking for work. 5 stars +++

Lisa Crowell at C-Suite Assistants is an incredible recruiter. She is well organized, responsive, efficient and very supportive through the entire process. Most notable, she makes the right connections for employers and candidates. I am so grateful to her, and the agency, for where I am right now in my career. I feel so blessed and appreciate Lisa's dedication and guidance to get me where I am today!

Gerry Sheridan demonstrated a clear understanding of the standards and discretion required when placing candidates within private households, family offices and companies. The process was handled with professionalism, transparency, and thoughtful communication at every stage.

I would highly recommend C-Suite Assistants to principals, family offices, and candidates seeking a recruiter who operates with integrity, discretion, and a genuine commitment to the right fit

I cannot say enough good things about Kristin and Linda. After five months of working with other recruiters and companies, and enduring empty promises and opportunities that were not the right fit. But working with Kristin and Linda was a completely different experience. From my very first conversation with Kristin, I felt genuinely heard. She acknowledged my frustrations, communicated with me every step of the way, and was a tremendous champion for my background and experience. Seeing the bigger picture of not only what I have done, but who I am and what I still want to do. Where others left me disappointed at the finish line, Kristin and Linda got me in front of exactly the right opportunity. They are a true credit to the recruiting community and do things the right way. If you're looking for recruiters who actually listen and deliver, look no further.

My experience working with C-Suite Assistants was outstanding from start to finish! Gerry is absolutely brilliant and a joy to work with. Her and her Partner Linda completely nailed it and helped me secure a role that exceeded my expectations in every way.

I have worked with other recruitment firms in the past and working with the C-Suite team was next-level. Taking inspiration from the iconic quote in the movie Mean Girls - they're not like regular recruiters, they're cool recruiters.

Iconic in their own right, Gerry and Linda both have an encouraging and thoughtful approach that is unparalleled and incredibly effective.

Lisa Crowell was awesome! Lisa stood out to me because she reached out to chat and investigate whether or not I was a good fit for my Exec and he for me; instead of simply trying to find a warm body to fill a position. Excellent communication and follow through. I feel that my Exec would say the same.

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.
