"Amii engaged HumanEdge to add several board members with deep experience across multiple industries, venture capital, government relations, academia and startups - a not inconsequential task. We found HumanEdge to be highly responsive and critical thinkers. They very quickly put together an amazing list of prospects who they had vetted before even passing them on to us for interviews. I have to say that I was extremely pleased with the candidates…. We didn't have to spend endless hours sifting through poor or mediocre candidates. I have absolutely no qualms about recommending HumanEdge."

"Platinum service is the best way to describe HumanEdge. I have worked with many recruiting firms in the past and this company exceeded my expectations by a remarkable percentage. They worked with the hiring committee to determine the best qualities for the position, presented a remarkable list of candidates and actively assisted us to narrow that list down in a very timely manner. The committee was involved every step of the way and believe that the best person for the position was hired. But even after hiring, HumanEdge remained in contact to help draft an announcement and make sure the candidate was progressing and comfortable in the position. I highly recommend HumanEdge."

"HumanEdge is much more than an executive search firm. They took the time to understand the needs of the organization and introduced us to highly qualified candidates.

Their level of insight combined with their expertise in recruitment enabled us to find the right candidate for our organization."

"HumanEdge Global has been providing recruitment services for executive level positions since 2018, having successfully filled 3 positions relatively quickly. We believe that the differentiating factor for Human Edge is their authentic interest in getting to know our organization including what we do and where we’re going, our team members and our networks. Through this process they were able to understand our culture and assess the qualities that the candidate must possess in order to be the right fit for the role. HumanEdge has become a trusted partner to Canterbury Foundation and supports our mission through the recruitment of professionals who will make a positive impact."

After getting to know our culture, business, and needs, the team embarked in a process that filled a key role in our organization while keeping us engaged all along. Would make the same choice again in engaging their services."

"We have been working with HumanEdge for over 8 years… We are focused on hiring for fit and we need to work with trusted business partners who clearly understand our culture, our business model and our needs. The team of professionals took the time to get to know and understand us and have been very effective at telling our story to potential candidates, attracting the very best.

We would unreservedly recommend them for their ability to support the recruitment process required in the strategic direction of a complex organization."

They consistently provided high level input and guidance on important strategic issues to our firm, often well beyond what was required to fill a defined role.

They have worked out spectacularly well and the individuals have added significant value to our company."

"The Town of Peace River engaged HumanEdge to fill the role of Business Retention Specialist in our organization which will become a key interface between our Administration and the business community. The team at HumanEdge knocked it out of the park for us. They were engaged, understood the type of person we were looking for, kept the recruitment process in motion, prepped us with detailed candidate profiles ahead of interviews, and ultimately delivered a candidate that I personally don’t know we would have found on our own. I enjoyed the process and would have no hesitations choosing to work with HumanEdge for future searches."

"The City of Beaumont AB recently used HumanEdge for our Deputy Chief Administrative Officer / CFO recruitment. It was a very good process, and we landed an outstanding candidate.

"HumanEdge Executive Search laid-out a solid process to source and select suitable candidates for the Regional Fire Chief role at Lamont County and was flexible in adding a couple desired value-add's. They reviewed with me the very long list of potential candidates; shared how he narrowed the group and determined a short list. This short list was then interviewed by video. They provided a good mix of advice. The video's helped provide insights in this narrowing exercise. Reference checking was diligent as was assistance in on-boarding. Overall HumanEdge delivered a solid candidate more or less in the time promised and at the competitive promised price. Very satisfied with the experience."
