Tom Caulfield, CEO, Globalfoundries

"Over the years, we have worked with all of the large search firms and several smaller firms, both nationally and internationally.  Don Errigo and The Errigo Group are clearly at the front of the pack and have helped us successfully hire exceptional SVP/GMs to our staff through their highly organized process.  We value their deep understanding of our needs, organizational complexities, judgment, strategy and advice throughout the process.  Unlike many other firms, they don’t just recruit, they act as collaborative partners as committed to our success as their own. I look forward to our continued partnership and achievements and can’t recommend them more highly"

Debo Olaosebikan, CEO, Stealth Start-up

“Don is the first recruiter to match the high-bar my co-Founders and I set. We retained The Errigo Group on several leadership hires and cannot recommend them highly enough. They made sure to really understand our needs before using their deep knowledge and vast networks to put forward superb candidates, enabling us to recruit world-class talent. Don was also a joy to work with — his personable character making the experience enjoyable for us and the candidates.”

Chuck del Prado, President and CEO, ASM International

Don displays a deep understanding and knowledge of our industry, understands the culture and demands of our organization, and adept to identify world-class talent. His engagement and drive are exceptional. Don has been instrumental in strengthening our senior leadership teams."

Charles Giancarlo, CEO, Pure Storage

"The Errigo Group took the time to become an expert in the field in which we were conducting our CEO and SVP Sales and Marketing searches. By the time that they presented their list of candidates they knew as much about the industry as any reasonably experienced industry practitioner. They became a valuable partner with the management team and Board of Directors, not just a sourcer of candidates in the field of interest. I would gladly turn to The Errigo Group again."

George Mulhern, CEO & Chairman, CradlePoint

“We have worked with Don on three critical C-level searches. Their ability to quickly grasp our business, culture and position requirements and then effectively communicate those to potential candidates is head-and-shoulders above other executive recruiters. The quality of candidates they brought forward were world-class leaders in their field. We have built and exceptional leadership team at Cradlepoint and the Errigo Group has been a key contributor to making that happen.”

Dave Whorton, Managing Director, Tugboat Ventures

“We had very unique needs for a COO, Errigo Group delivered. Errigo Group helped us think through short term and long term needs based upon our business objectives, and a year later we feel we still made the right choice.”

Russell Bik, Co-founder & Chairman, Applied Silver

“I have worked with The Errigo Group on multiple searches as a Kleiner Perkins Operating Partner, and have been impressed with their disciplined and thorough approach. They have an understanding of the subtle requirements that exist within a company as well as the fine points of the position itself. This understanding, combined with their focus and attention to detail, is fundamental to their success. The results have been outstanding.”

Timothy Stultz, President & CEO, Nanometrics

“Out of a total of 10, the Errigo group is 4 parts listen, 1 part talk and 5 parts execution. They get it and deliver – by understanding the unique needs and requirements of the company, aggressively searching for the right fit, and actively helping to close on the candidate. We have used them for multiple executive searches, and will use them again.”

Avi Katz, Chairman, President, and CEO, GigPeak (previously GigOptix)

“Through a solid commitment, passion, and thorough study of the company’s structure and culture, Don became our close executive recruiter and HR consultant partner. Continuing to take interest in GigOptix, Don became our sole recruiter of all executives and was very instrumental in putting in place the entire re-start leadership team of GigOptix. Excellent spirit, accessibility, outstanding contacts and networking, and fun personality, made our partnership so valuable and efficient”

Mike Slessor, President & CEO, FormFactor

“The Errigo Group has been a key contributor to our growth over the past few years by helping us recruit world-class talent into our executive team.

Thomas Werner, CEO, SunPower (testimonial while at Silicon Light Machine)

Costas Spanos, Director CITRIS and the Banatao Institute, UC Berkeley. Former OnWafer Chairman & CTO

"The Errigo Group managed our CEO search with a professionalism and dedication that is truly impressive. They have a deep knowledge of our space, but they were still willing to listen and understand our special needs. During the search they demonstrated their ability to adapt to the rapidly changing circumstances in our young company. We intend to use them again as our company grows. They have my highest recommendation."

Jim Olson, President & CEO, SkyStream Networks

"The Errigo Group knows all the right people in my industry and works feverishly, yet methodically to find the perfect match and solidify the hire. Errigo recruited three top executives for SkyStream Networks, and all three are best in class. They are the top retained search firm that I have worked with, bar none."

Lyle Jordan, Chairman, iTerra Communications

"We were extremely pleased with The Errigo Group and their performance to close our CEO search in less than 90 days. Don Errigo executed an excellent search process with extremely prompt and extraordinary results. He invested time with our key executives and Board members to establish a clear understanding of the CEO requirements, and was highly active throughout the candidate selection decision and offer closing process." I would highly recommend Don Errigo and The Errigo Group for any executive search."
