Our firm has been partnering with Hoffer & Associates for our senior recruitment needs for the past few years. For every job opening that we have, Hoffer continues to respond not only in a timely manner but also with the most qualified candidates. Their team is very proactive and truly understands the sector.
Hoffer might be one of the best financial recruiters I have come across. They not only concentrate on finding the right person for the job, but actually looks beyond the skills required.
They have a great understanding of the marketplace and always managed to find great recruits for us who were a perfect cultural fit.
Our Candidates
Browse below through our testimonials for examples of the confidence our candidates and clients place in us for their career progression and strategic recruitment needs.
Put simply, Hoffer is very reliable swiss recruitment firm. Their constant support and professional yet friendly service made them a pleasure firm to deal with. I will be recommending some colleagues to contact them if and when they are looking for new opportunities.
At Hoffer they take time to truly get to know you and what you are passionate about. There are proactive communicators and kept me well informed on progress. Their style is very reassuring, inviting to questions and willingly gave time to respond to questions thoroughly. I certainly would recommend them again.
I recently went through Hoffer for an specific position. They have impressed me with their efficiency and professionalism. They were forthright and ran the whole process with utmost transparency and integrity. It was a pleasure dealing with them.
Hoffer?s professionalism and ability to generate rapport with candidates make them a valuable asset to anyone looking for a new challenge. They are a very genuine and takes the role of a “trusted advisor” seriously – they listen, understands, and delivers a solution.
Hoffer was first recommended to me when I was working for [xxx] Bank. From our first dealings I found Hoffer & Associates to be a firm of intelligence and integrity. They completely understand how the Financial Industry works. If you need a good recruitment firm specialized in Banking, then I’d recommend you to drop them a line.
They have a honest and detail-focused approach to the recruitment process. Most importantly, this is a firm you can trust who has your professional interests in mind. They were able to really understand my career goals and find an appropriate match, offered helpful advice to prepare for the interview process, and maintained consistently clear communication at all times. I couldn’t recommend their services highly enough.
While living in Geneva, I approached Hoffer Switzerland to find me an opportunity in Zurich. It’s certainly not any easy task and really I was just expecting to meet a few people. A little over of four months later I was extremely happy to be signing a contract and having an excellent position waiting for me on arrival. Not only did them have great awareness about the market but it was their personable approach to me and my situation that really sold me on their ability.
