Candidates
"Holly brings an extraordinary personal touch to her work. She invests significant time getting to know you personally, as well as professionally. This helps her considerably to make placements that result in the best fit for everyone. Holly is a trusted advisor and you can count on her to tell you what you need to hear, as opposed to what you may want to hear."

"Working with Holly is an awesome experience, whether as a candidate or a hiring manager [I've been both]. Holly covers the professional bases, specifically matching candidate skills and experience with company needs and job description. But Holly goes the extra mile and really seeks to understand the intangibles that are part of the individual's background and the company's culture to ensure a great fit and a successful hiring process. Highly recommended."

"Holly and her team were amazing. They listened to my concerns, asked and answered questions, and understood my practice before making a very detailed game plan to assist me in searching for a new law firm. Holly and her team were very effective in communicating, extracting offers, and negotiating on my behalf. Without hesitation, I strongly recommend Holly and her staff for any partner, associate, in-house counsel or paraprofessional in need of placement in the legal community."

"I have worked with Holly on a number of searches including my efforts over the past year to build my Legal and Compliance leadership teams. Without a doubt Holly is one of the best recruiters I have worked with over the years as she has taken the time to not only personally understand each position and the skill set needed, but has also worked diligently to ensure that there is a good fit with each recruit. I also appreciate the fact that Holly periodically follows up with the attorneys and other professionals that we have hired to help ensure a smooth transition. As we continue to build a "dream team" of lawyers and compliance professionals, I have no doubt that we will continue to work with Holly on these future searches, as her level of attention to detail and understanding of the big picture has been instrumental to our success."

"As an Associate General Counsel at a Fortune 500 company, I've worked with Holly for over a decade in sourcing, recruiting and onboarding high-quality lawyers and legal personnel. To be successful in hiring in today's competitive labor market, you need a recruiter who understands the market, has an extensive (and constantly growing) network and engages with candidates in a polished manner and with a common touch. Holly perfectly embodies those traits. She is thorough, responsive and forthright, and she's brought us some amazing candidates who have helped bring our organization to the next level."

"Davis Search's Julie Srochi is an amazing resource for us when our firm finds itself with an open position that needs to be filled. Julie manages to find applicants that not only fill our skill set needs but who are also a good fit within our firm culture. She is responsive and thorough in her communications with us from the beginning of the search all the way through to the conclusion. She is wonderful to work with and somehow makes the grueling but necessary process of recruitment and staffing tolerable. We highly recommend her services!!"
