To Whom It May Concern:
It is a great pleasure to recommend Dan Simmons and Continental Search as a recruiting service for those seeking advancement in their career. I recently had the opportunity to work with Dan during my successful job search.
During the entire process, from finding a job to my first week, Dan was helpful in every aspect. I was provided information on successful interviewing and was given assistance on grooming my resume. Dan was readily available, even on weekends, and worked around my schedule. It was very clear that he had a great deal of experience in this process and was able to relate. His enthusiasm helped me prepare myself mentally for a situation that can be nerve-racking and intimidating at times.
My contact with Dan did not end when I was offered the job. He provided guidance in resigning from my previous position, relocating, and even sent a book on how to transition successfully. All of this was at no charge to me. I truly felt Dan was there to help me every step of the way.
As a result of working with Dan and Continental Search, I have a higher paying job in the location I desired. I would have never found this opportunity if I did not work with Dan. He was very helpful from beginning to end and I highly recommend his services for potential employees.
Sincerely,
Brad J.

At Continental Search, we like to think of ourselves as a breed apart from other recruiters. First and foremost, we listen to your needs, then we combine the art of matchmaking and the science of recruiting to find you the perfect employee.
Continental Search recruits in animal agriculture across the USA and in Canada. This includes animal nutrition, livestock production and animal health. We recruit from entry-level to the executive level from sales to technical to production and R&D. During an average week we may be making recruiting calls to a recent college grad with a master’s degree in ruminant nutrition, a Ph.D. in swine management, a sales manager from a major feed company, a DVM who provides technical support for a pharmaceutical company and a farrowing manager for a swine farm.
We don’t try to place everyone or recruit for every company. Our client list includes some of the best in their field, though not always the biggest. We look for companies that are in a growth mode who offer exciting opportunities for exceptional candidates. Then, we go find the exceptional candidates.
