Testimonials
Berke Executive Search Delivers Results For Some of Science's Most Cutting-Edge Organizations, Check Out What Some of Our Client's Have to Say About Our Service!
“We engaged Carl Berke back in early 2016 to begin a search for our new Chief Operating Officer. We met with several search firms as part of our due diligence including many of the big, more well-known firms but when compared against Carl, they paled in comparison. Carl has an extensive generic pharma network and we were impressed with his knowledge; he has a finger on the pulse of this dynamic industry. In short time, Carl provided us a well-vetted list of candidates and we were well on our way to fill this critical role. Throughout the process, Carl and his team were extremely engaged and responsive and also very fluid with changing needs and demands. It was a pleasure to work with Carl and he is now at the top of our list for our senior level recruiting needs!”
