You're Not Here by Accident

You’re searching for a way to close more deals. A way to do your
job better. You want to make more money in less time. We’re all about that. 

Here's What Else We're All About

We’re Recruiters

There are trainers who were recruiters, trainers who never were recruiters, and us. Trainers who remain actively involved in recruiting. We test our techniques before we train them. You only see what works, and never the theory of someone who doesn’t have anything at risk.

We Believe in Kindness

We try to do an act of kindness every day. But don’t confuse kindness with being nice or weak. If someone ignores the spinach in your teeth, they’re being nice. If someone lets you know, so you can fix the problem, they’re being kind. It’s harder to be kind than nice, yet it’s important.

Thought Diversity

Too often a trainer will tell you they have the right way to do something. When someone tells you their way is the only way, run. Different viewpoints are valid, and we’re always learning from others. If you think you’re perfect, you stopped improving. Read our Defining Characteristics for more insight into our approach.

Morality Matters

We are on a mission to civilize the recruiting industry. For too long has a base level of corruption been acceptable (even bragged about) among recruiters and those who train them. Together, we can stop the few bad apples from hurting us, our clients, and our candidates.

We Enjoy Life

We go on trips and adventures. We love Disney and Star Wars and about a dozen other things you may find immature. We laugh in every class because we love what we’re doing. We know if we make class entertaining you will remember more of it, which means you get more out of your investment. We want you to experience life that way too.

Enthusiastic Love From Past Clients

Tricia and Jason are a verifiable treasure trove of information on the efficient use of Boolean searches for lazer focused, high quality searches. After taking their webinar course, I was able to cut the time of my searches in half, and be able to come back with greater accuracy and relevancy on the candidate backgrounds. Also, Jason has a fantastic hat.

Charles Kriston

Executive Recruiter/Career Coach at Charles Kriston Group

I completed an on-line training course that was masterfully crafted by Tricia. The power of sourcing using Boolean and other internet tools have allowed me to reach candidates I sensed were accessible, but did not know how to reach. In addition to be strong in these skills she is also empathetic to the student as we are exposed to powerful tools in a short period of time and are unable to complete cycles of learning to establish mastery of the skills.

I never write recommendations for just anyone but this one is truly deserved. I was a student in Tricia’s class and the thing that impressed me the most was her professionalism, knowledge of the industry, accurate if not perfect answers to questions. Although, the class was online it was almost like being in the classroom physically. I highly recommend Tricia as my knowledge of sourcing increased under Tricia’s tutelage.

Toddie Downs

Project Coordinator at Olson Search International, Inc.

The depth of knowledge Tricia has about eSourcing in the eSSentials class is nothing short of mind-blowing. She is extremely thorough, but also, like the very best teachers, very enthusiastic and passionate about the subject. I also greatly appreciated her accessibility to questions outside class via email.

Tricia and Jason had me in their “eSSentials eSourcing” course and it was a great course to take. I feel the information was given in great detail and well taught. The webinar was fun and interactive, not boring and impersonal. Professionally this information is beyond useful to finding everything I need and I am eager to take the next step with them in February in their “Advanced eSSentials.”

Al Born

Senior Director of Recruiting and Client Services

Tricia has been invaluable in teaching me new techniques on how to become a better recruiter. Her method of teaching is refreshing and engaging. She definitely keeps you engaged during her training sessions. I would highly recommend her.

Greg Eskew, MSS

General Manager at Smith Staffing, Inc. and Flexnursing. LLC

Tricia and her sidekick Jason are nothing short of astounding! The information they teach has limitless potential and their knowledge of the subject matter is remarkable. Tricia is concise and professional while at the same time personable and enjoyable. The passion she displays is always evident and is infectious. While geared toward recruiters the tools she teaches have universal applications. Well worth the investment!

Jon Olson

President - Head of Search and Recruiting at Olson Search International

I have nothing but the highest praise for Tricia as an instructor, and eSSentials is a course packed with outstanding content.

Mike Martin

Executive Search for Consumer, Lifestyle & Outdoor Brands

The eSSentials training provides immediate returns with sourcing passive candidates for open job orders. It is an incredible value from both a time and cost perspective and the returns can be measured right away. We’ve missed big on some past training from industry “experts” and I was hesitant to commit the spend but the techniques we learned are invaluable. I am very thankful she talked me into the class and she delivered way past my expectations!!!

Dick Bordwell

President & Managing Partner at GRN Fairfax

When it comes to getting the most up to date methods for finding and researching available talent on the internet, Tricia is truly an expert in this field. The training she has provided over the last several weeks cover a number of diverse topics on internet sourcing and provide immediate results. The classes move quickly, are laced with humor, and will keep you on the edge of your seat. The best part is the ability to fully cover questions and receive immediate feedback on the topics being covered in a weekly question and answer period. If you’re serious about getting your internet sourcing skills to another level, then Tricia can teach you those skills to get there, and then continue to keep you up to date on new developments. . .
