Search With
Clarity and Intent

CB & Associates approaches high-touch recruiting as a strategic process, not a transactional one. The firm works closely with clients to understand the business need, define the leadership gap, and shape the search around the outcome that matters most. That means senior-level attention, targeted evaluation, and direct communication from the start of the search through the hire.

Cindy is one of the most hard working and persistent recruiters I've met. From the first time we spoke about a prospective job, she guided me through the whole process day by day, literally. I was unemployed at the time, but Cindy really brightened my outlook on my job search. She gave me the positivity to successfully interview and was the true mediator between myself and the hiring company. Cindy genuinely cares about getting her candidates hired with the right company.
