"Intro has matched my company up -- regardless of the industry, project or market I'm operating in -- with folks who are uncannily suited for the goals laid out."
"10/10. Best recruiter I’ve worked with."
"Couldn't be happier with our decision to partner with Intro Limited. They diligently listened to our feedback and calibrated until we had our perfect candidate."
"Recruiting is at the core of building any great business, and Intro knows how to sniff out the fancy talkin' and get down to performance, execution, and character. I can't think of anyone I'd rather represent me or our brand."
"Intro is refreshing, a far cry from the impersonal and mechanical interaction I have often experienced with several executive search agencies."
"Michael and the team have supported us tremendously in making key senior hires and going above and beyond to make the hiring process as seamless as it could be.”
"Michael is the best; a total unicorn in executive search.”
Intro is different. Conversations with Michael are mutually beneficial and genuine. This has not just been my experience, but that of countless dear friends and colleagues whom I have referred to Intro with full trust.
"Mike understands what motivates a candidate to want to join an organization: an alignment of values, ability and shared goals. He has always focused on building enduring cultures founded on integrity, openness and an unwavering commitment to developing good humans for positive impact. This was instilled in me during my time working for Mike at Alternative, validated through his guidance during my transition to lululemon and continues as a friend and mentor.”
"We never considered using a firm until we met Michael, who is a joy to work with and brought us fantastic people."
"Our partnership with Intro exceeded expectations and produced spectacular results. They differentiated themselves through an in depth probing of our needs, an exhaustive and diligent approach to screening candidates, and providing expert guidance to reach a mutually acceptable arrangement with our finalists."
"Working with Michael and Julienne has been an amazing success story. We started with many headhunter options in North America, but we have quickly made Intro our one-stop shop for all types of recruitment."
"Working with Intro has taken so much stress and uncertainty out of the hiring process. Intro do a fantastic job of learning our hiring needs up front, developing a very specific profile and only bringing us the best candidates that meet those requirements. They’ve been a true partner in helping us build an exceptional team.”
“The Intro team responded quickly with candidates that were spot-on in terms of competencies but more important in terms of culture and energy.”
"Intro listened and understood exactly what we needed in a designer. They came back days later with a short list of candidates; each one of them was able to nail our aesthetic and really wanted to be a part of our brand. We had a winner in under two weeks, and she’s still with us.”
"As an entrepreneur, synergy between brand vision and the team that covers your blind spots is vital. Having a recruiting partner that truly understands the importance of brand fit is rare. Intro gets it!"
"Midi Management has used Intro's services across different portfolio companies for several executive positions, including CFO. We were very pleased with the processes which were run very smoothly and quickly, with a very good comprehension of the skill sets needed for specific hires and industries. We can confirm that all candidates were successful upon hires. We would definitely recommend Intro!”
"From start to finish, Intro made our employee search effortless. They are all about details, and well connected. Two weeks after starting, we had several perfect candidates and the hardest part was trying to pick just one. I look forward to working with Michael and Julienne again soon."
"This talented and empathetic team quickly became trusted confidantes and thought partners to me in 2021 - they are big picture thinkers with incredible insight on how to build and scale teams."

French, international, in love with southern California. Nobody is creative and whimsically human-centric and deeply philosophical while also being an impeccably detailed operator, but Bastien is. "We don't hire brokers, we train them." Same goes for recruiting. Curious > generalist > reader > learner > specialist.
