"Outstanding service at an almost amazing price."

Hinsdale County, Colorado

 
"It really saved our district a lot of time.
I would recommend the process to anyone."
Board Member, BRINKLEY ARKANSAS
 
"Your ability to contact a large area for applicants and research the references provided was very helpful. Coordinating the information from the
various groups in the community and school was helpful and
created a feeling of ownership in the final decision. This should prove
to be a positive place to start this new relationship."
Board Member, MORRILL, NEBRASKA
 
"You were very professional and concerned with our district's needs and concerned that we find someone that 'fits.' You were very committed to the whole process from beginning to end. Your research and preparation of information on the candidates was above and beyond my expectations. I was very pleased with the time you took to involve staff, students, and community. Thank you for a job well done!! It was money well spent."
Board Member, SISSETON, SOUTH DAKOTA
"You did what you said you would; deliver quality candidates in a timely manner. We had four excellent interviews."
Board Member, MARCUS-MERIDEN-CLEGHORN, IOWA
"The entire process is tremendous! The process involves everyone, tends to pull everyone together and is handled very professionally. The process is tremendously beneficial to our school, community, and our superintendent candidates. They truly have an interview that enables them to really get to know our school/community and base their decision on an overall impression. This is a great start to a new superintendent/school relationship. This process made us look good at very step--Thank you!!"

Board Member, NORTHERN CASS, NORTH DAKOTA

"I've been through both ways of hiring a superintendent. I would never do it 'on our own' again, after using your company. I would highly recommend you to anyone in the search/hire process."

Board Member, SISSETON, SOUTH DAKOTA

"The process worked well in allowing all to have a voice."

Board Member, CLAY CENTER, KANSAS

 
"We all know what we want but with the help of McPherson & Jacobson we were able to have the best people in front of us at the beginning of the process. They did the screening process and that saved a lot of time."
Board Member, WEST POINT, NEBRASKA

"Relieves the Board and District from a very labor intensive procedure that takes a particular knowledge that most boards don't have."

Board Member, BON HOMME, SOUTH DAKOTA

 
"You did the legwork! I certainly did not have the time to sift, sort, check, double-check, etc. I certainly appreciated that they solicited quality candidates! The consultants were un-biased, and were great resources. They stayed neutral throughout the process. Extremely professional. Highly recommend!"

Board Member, LANSING, KANSAS

 
"Your consultants bring a great amount of experience to our board. All nine members of our board were very pleased with the whole process. I think we had three excellent final candidates. Most of that depth was due to your firm's professional ability to find and screen personnel."

Board Member, LOGAN VIEW, NEBRASKA

 
"The selection process was one of letting all of us have our input and then everyone had a part in prioritizing them. Great strategy!!"

Board Member, WAGNER, SOUTH DAKOTA

 
"McPherson & Jacobson walked us through the process with professional skills, in a timely manner and a great list of candidates."

Board Member, WILLIAMSBURG, IOWA

"Everything worked so well together. When you got done with one step, the next step almost fell right into place. I felt this worked well because of the number of candidates. We got positive feedback from the teachers and community. I would recommend this to any school district if they want to get the BEST person out there. I am very happy that I had the chance to work with McPherson & Jacobson on our superintendent search. Keep up the good work."

Board Member, KILLDEER, NORTH DAKOTA

 
"Very well organized; great ideas for us to use from the beginning to end."

Board Member, WEST POINT, NEBRASKA

 
"You made our superintendent search an encouraging experience.
We as a board made an excellent decision in hiring your firm.
Overall, this was a very positive experience."

Board Member, NORTHWOOD-KENSETT, IOWA

"Our board's first concern was that the community would feel involvement in the selection process. There were opportunities galore for community input. Proof of this is in the wide acceptance of the board's choice."

Board Member, BRYANT, ARKANSAS

 
"Professional; thorough; detailed; both consultants were invaluable to our board with their leadership skills. Our board could not have done as thorough of a job without their help and guidance. It was definitely dollars well spent."

Board Member, LOGAN VIEW, NEBRASKA

"The efficiency of the process allowed us to use our time in an effective manner so that we were not distracted by detail. I am convinced that the involvement of so many stakeholders made the process highly valid and removed uncertainties from the deliberations. The data-rich process allowed us to focus on salaries, etc. with a precision we could not have otherwise had."

Board Member, LAMONI, IOWA

"Your group saved board members many hours of searching, contacting, screening, not to mention recruiting."

Board Member, MIDWAY USD #433, KANSAS

 
"I liked the personal attention we received from the consultants. They were very helpful with their honesty and willingness to make sure every detail was covered. I felt as if these two consultants were genuine and caring."

Board Member, MORRILL, NEBRASKA

 
"Very professional and very involved. Very organized. Going into this process I did not look forward to this duty. You made it as painless as I could ever imagine, and actually made it easy for us with all your behind the scenes work. Thorough, far-reaching, and most helpful!!"

Board Member, WILLIAMSBURG, IOWA

"I wanted you to know that the interview process has been a very positive experience for me. Your firm developed a selection process bringing community members, students, and staff together in an open manner. I am pleased to be a finalist in this process."

Finalist Candidate, KANSAS

 
"Well organized, thorough, accommodating. We would never have found such an accomplished candidate to hire on our own."

Board Member, IBERVILLE, LOUISIANA

 
"You did a good job of soliciting applicants and involving the board for only the selection of the best candidates."

Board Member, WILLIAMSBURG, IOWA

"You took so much of the time consuming legwork off our backs. Everything was so professional. We heard nothing but good comments from the patrons."

Board Member, SARGENT CENTRAL, NORTH DAKOTA

"Very professional. Timelines were met. Board members were always well informed. Bottom line, we hired an EXCELLENT SUPERINTENDENT."

Board Member, TRI-COUNTY, NEBRASKA

"Your really knew and understood the district and our needs. You listened to our board and did what we asked. Prompt, efficient, organized."
Board Member, WILBER-CLATONIA, NEBRASKA
“The candidates they gave us all were suited for our district. They had done their homework on each one. If we had questions they seemed to have the answers for us, and if they didn't they found out for us.”
Board Member, HOLTON, KANSAS
 
"Would certainly recommend this firm to any board conducting a superintendent search."
Board Member, MOREHOUSE PARISH, LOUISIANA
