client feedback
"Sue Thomas and Emmaly Vielhauer are outstanding! Not only are they refreshing to work with because of their professional expertise, ability to focus and then follow-through, they also offer subtle and yet very meaningful insights based on their research or other findings."
"What's different about them? They are more than consultants who specialize in professional searches; they truly become your 'trusted partner'. That's a great benefit and seldom experienced in today's market place. Kudo's to all of you!"

"I have worked with tva effectively now for 10 years during which time I worked for two very different companies with unique needs and challenges. tva demonstrates their ability to grasp everything about our searches - technical and soft skill needs, organizational culture and geography issues. They do a good job developing and executing the search strategy based on our needs and candidates are fully developed, which allows me to spend more time assessing and less time explaining. Communication and follow up are exceptional. With tva I receive boutique search service and thought partnership at exceptional savings because of their business model. I see tva as a partnership, an extension of my team."

"I have worked with Sue and Emmaly for over 7 years and through two companies. As a client, they know the retail and apparel industry and labor market such that they have always hit the ground running for any of the assignments we have provided them. They take the time understand the specifics of the job specifications, work closely with the hiring managers, and provide timely and relevant feedback throughout the process. Most importantly their business model provides you with great information on the candidates, which you can leverage beyond filling the position. As a candidate, they were clear about the company and position, set me up for success during the interview process, and provided me quality feedback and support. Not only did they place me with a great company, but they stayed in touch to ensure I was successfully integrating into my new role. Sue and Emmaly are terrific partners for all of your hiring needs."

"Partnering with TVA search is like engaging with an expert sommelier: They know what's in front of you, they understand the complexities & nuances, they review everything - even if it's not on the list - and they will only recommend the very best for your review. That's why I keep coming back to their table."

"Beware: if you're going to work with Emmaly and Sue, you are going to get more than headhunting. You are going to get two women who will develop and express strong opinions about your business, your team and your new hires. Their time and materials recruiting model is a breath of fresh air in an industry where it's not always exactly clear what you are buying."

"I have known Sue Thomas for over 20 years and have found her to be a great partner in the search process. She has helped me fill key positions both in private industry and in academia. Sue has an outstanding ability to assess strengths and weaknesses of candidates and determine when there is a fit with the organization. She is very responsive and has the most creative solutions to recruiting challenges of anyone with whom I have worked."
