"Lisa is, without doubt, the most experienced and knowledgeable real estate/retail recruitment consultant I’ve met in the 20 years I’ve been in the industry. Her detailed understanding combined with her market expertise makes Lisa undoubtedly the choice of consultant for your next career move within the retail/real estate arena.

Besides being a reliable source of information and an extraordinary ambassador for both the company trying to recruit talent or the individual looking for a new opportunity, the most important quality that Lisa displays is Integrity.

Lisa can be depended upon to make a good match between employer and employee. I know that I can always depend on Lisa to work in the best interest of both the company recruiting talent as well as the professional seeking a new opportunity. I believe this quality is truly rare in the world of professional recruitment and is extremely beneficial in the long-run for her clients.

I highly recommend Lisa and her professional recruitment services. She is an honest and forthright professional in her own right and does an excellent job matching company needs to a professional’s desires.

Top qualities: Personable, Expert and High Integrity. "

"Lisa is not only a pleasure to speak with, but she is very detailed, organized, and thorough. Her professionalism and expertise make her a great partner to work with."

"During our initial conversation and throughout the interviewing process, Lisa shared a significant amount of key information regarding the company and how to prepare for the interview process. She provided links to pertinent articles and reached out to the internal recruiter to get answers to my questions. She responded quickly to all of my requests and was always available when I needed her.

Lisa had me comfortably prepared for each interview so I was able to be my best during, what can be a stressful time. After each interview, she would follow up to get feedback from me regarding how it went and evaluate how the support she was providing was working. Ultimately, I was offered and accepted the job!

You are the only recruiter who followed through on things that they have told me. It speaks volumes and makes candidates more seriously consider the role and relocation, as well.”

"Lisa is a great partner and resource for anyone looking for their next hire, not only to the company but also to the possible candidate. She went above and beyond throughout the process, communicating the next steps and providing resources to prepare me for them.

I have never had such a close line of communication with a recruiter before, and I was amazed at how well Lisa managed the entire process on both ends. She was a pleasure to collaborate with, and I know she is rooting for my success in my new role."

Marc-Allen Associates always has qualified candidates that are a great match ……. the first time!”

"I would highly recommend Marc-Allen Associates to any company that needs an Executive Recruiter. They over-delivered on our expectations by producing more top-quality candidates than we could have ever asked for in a short period of time. They personally traveled to meet our executives, learn about our business, and master our expectations prior to reaching out to find candidates. They are highly professional and very trustworthy."

“I've worked with Marc-Allen Associates on a large number of searches since 2006. They have proved themselves to be responsive, very well connected in the retail space, and of great value. They are tenacious and work hard to identify the right candidate, and have placed some fabulous talent into our organization. They're a pleasure to work with.”

“Lisa reached out to me in late 2017. She recommended me as a candidate for an open position for which she was recruiting and worked closely with me to ensure I was prepared and confident throughout my interview process. I am extremely happy with my new job and so grateful to Lisa for providing me with this opportunity. I recommend her highly to all of my colleagues and cannot thank her enough for her help.”

"Marc-Allen Associates are the "go to" recruiters I now use for a lot of our retail openings. They are extremely responsive business partners and provide a well-qualified slate of candidates for each opportunity. They go the extra mile with the candidates they present, in that their communication with them and with us is superior. I view Marc-Allen Associates as a long-term business partnership, which is what I look for in my recruiter relations. I would without any hesitation recommend them to other companies (as long as they don't have the same openings we do and at the same time)!"

"From my perspective, Marc-Allen Associates has three characteristics that make them a special firm. The first is always functioning with the highest level of integrity in everything they do. Second is that they get things done, and finally, the are easy to work with."

“Lisa, I want you to know that I’m very happy, not only with the result, but the process. I can say it was as if you were an extension of our team, and it was seamless. You presented great candidates and kept us on task. It was as if you were part of my HR team. Thank you for that. I look forward to working with you in the future.”

“I have been associated with Marc-Allen Associates for the past 20 years. They have guided me to successful career decisions and have provided top talent for organizations I have led.  Marc-Allen Associates has been and will be my first choice to identify and place talent.  They are a highly professional organization with deep roots in the retail industry and have the ability to find the right candidates who meet both the technical and cultural needs of the organization.  I have NEVER been disappointed with new partners hired through Marc-Allen Associates.”

“Marc-Allen Associates was our number one outside recruiter at Foot Locker for many years. We hired dozens of high-quality people through them, and almost all became valuable employees. They helped create the turnaround story at Foot Locker, which was very near bankruptcy. Many of our hires from them were critical in saving Footlocker. Their input was accurate and supportive of our goals. They never treated us like a "to do" list and always forwarded us great candidates. A relationship with them is long term, and they manage the relationship in that manner.”
