I launched Karen Shnek Lippman Executive Search to fill a glaringly obvious void in the talent acquisition marketplace:
1:1 personalized service and the timely delivery of exceptional results.
My searches don't take months or years to complete. I can find and interview a full slate of highly-qualified, fully-vetted candidates within weeks of beginning a new search -- in any industry, job function, or funding model. Without using an ATS or job posting.
How?
Because I have meaningful experience guiding demanding, time-strapped hiring managers, their investors, and HR, through the entire search/hiring process, from compensation benchmarking and job description drafting/approval through offer letter
Because I know how to wield LinkedIn Recruiter and other databases and "channels" expertly to "find" exceptional talent that matches the mission-critical needs of the business, a company's unique culture and/or team dynamics, and ... the bandwidth to assess all talent accurately and intelligently.
I operate with laser-like precision -- I call this "strategy," much like a top-tier management consultant.
The company leaders I serve consider me a strategic partner to the business because of my deep, encyclopedic-like subject matter expertise -- from G&A to GTM. They "expect" it.
I worked in-house in talent acquisition at a Fortune 20 company that relied on job postings to find talent (that's not recruiting) and understand the functionality of an ATS. How the hiring process works "inside" a company -- and externally.
Net net: there is no talent acquisition problem I can't solve, no machine I can't tame, and I always deliver, holding myself fully accountable for every recommendation I make and candidate I present.
As added value, I worked in PR/communications earlier in my career and am highly adept at engaging hard-to-reach, "passive" talent.

How do I measure success? What are "my" KPIs?
The quality of the talent I hire. Meaning, what the people I recruit and hire accomplish at the companies I hire them into -- and what they go on to accomplish throughout their careers.
My network is global and loyal. I treat all of my candidates and members of the hiring team with kindness and respect, providing excellent follow-up communications throughout the entire search/hiring process.
Last but not least, I love what I do!
PS — on the right is my trusted office mate and pandemic rescue, Diesel. Many of you already know him from our video chats!
