“I first worked with Stacey Cowan as a candidate last year during Genuen’s search to fill my current newly created role. Stacey’s communication style was always top-notch. She kept me informed and acted as an effective intermediary during the negotiation process. As our dedicated talent acquisition partner, Stacey is the best recruiter I have ever worked with. She collaborates closely with us to continually refine our job descriptions to attract top talent and is deeply committed to consistently delivering the right people for our culture and needs.”

Testimonials
Our clients love us
My candidate experience with OMNI was excellent from my very first conversation with Meredith Hauck. I appreciated her extensive institutional knowledge and insight, gained from performing past searches for the organization. Meredith was open, direct, and quick to respond. I also had the sense that she was genuinely advocating for me to the same extent that she was working to promote the best outcome for her client.
Testimonials
Our clients love us
Michelle was, without a doubt, the best search consultant I have ever worked with. The nonprofit sector, in general, and arts executive leadership, specifically, cover such a broad and diverse spectrum of skills in service to an ever larger and more varied set of constituencies. At each step of the process, Michelle both navigated the organization’s needs and communicated my aptitudes thoroughly and in an accessible manner to all parties involved. Michelle and the team at OMNI took true care, and I am grateful to have been a part of the process.
Testimonials
Our clients love us
It was a pleasure to work with Anna Robinson at OMNI. She was thoughtful, responsive, and always positive. It was clear her goal was to find the right person for the Executive Director position – someone who was a good fit for KAAP and vice versa. I think she was successful! I highly recommend OMNI Human Resource Management.
Testimonials
Our clients love us
“OMNI has helped me recruit, screen, and hire for several Director-level positions. Every time, I have been so very pleased at the level of service, the understanding of what I’m looking for, the excellent screening process, and the strong candidates they have brought forward. I could not be happier with their service and my results.”
Testimonials
Our clients love us
We’ve used OMNI in the past with great results, and this time was no different. Ultimately, they helped us narrow the field to a fantastic final candidate who’s been a great addition to our organization. OMNI’s process and cost model are perfect for our needs, and we absolutely recommend them for anyone seeking assistance in talent acquisition.
Testimonials
Our clients love us
OMNI’s greatest strength is the ability and willingness to tailor the executive search process to the client’s specific needs. Rather than applying a cookie cutter process to every search, Michelle works to build strong relationships with each of her clients, customizing and personalizing the process every step of the way… [OMNI’s] hourly billing structure offers the opportunity for savings. In one recent search, Michelle used her extensive personal network very early in the search process to identify the perfect candidate for us.
Michelle’s communications are timely, candid, and helpful. With her assistance, and when needed, we have been able to align our expectations for roles with our ability to pay market rate, without losing anything in the process. Thanks to our history of success in partnering with Michelle’s team to identify the best people for our needs and culture at a reasonable cost, we’re now working with OMNI to fill a greater range of roles.
