“I have worked with Deb both as a candidate and a client. Deb provides a great experience for both. As a hiring manager, there have been instances where we have filled multiple roles from the candidate pool she has presented for a specific search. Deb works on identifying the perfect profile and helps hiring managers think through non-negotiable traits and skills. She understands the company culture and identifies who might be a good fit. She thoroughly vets candidates and works diligently to get them through the hiring process with urgency and transparency. Deb is always prompt with updates and also gives feedback regarding any adjustments we may be able to make to improve our process. The culture at Bonell Ryan is to communicate often and transparently. The firm also sticks with a search when it may prove difficult to fill. Deb and her team have been an amazing asset in our search for top talent.

“Deb Ryan and her team at Bonell Ryan have conducted numerous searches for PayPal over many years. When I engaged Bonell Ryan on a search recently, I could see why! Deb has an efficient, no-nonsense and transparent style, providing me and my team with the positives as well as the possible developmental areas of each candidate presented. At no time did she “force” a fit. Ultimately, we found a great candidate. Deb and her team provided timely feedback and communication to both Paypal and the candidates (several commented on her continuous interaction and support throughout the process). Deb was available day and night for any questions we had. She listened to our needs, did not waste our time with unsuitable resumes and worked hard to produce the candidates we were requesting while maintaining her obviously high standards. I enjoyed our interactions and got the results needed -- I would definitely work with Bonell Ryan again and recommend the company highly.“

“Deb Ryan and her team are some of the best in the business. They excel at financial services related recruiting, and have an in depth knowledge of that landscape that bigger diversified firms just don't have. I have used them many times over the years, including a recent CEO search for a specialty payments card business. As always, they excelled ... helping us find an ideal candidate for a challenging situation.”

“Deb and her entire team are top notch. From their first contact they were professional and courteous and worked closely and collaboratively with me through the entire process. All though they had been engaged by the company searching for a new CEO they kept my individual best interests at heart throughout. Rare in my opinion when they represent the company versus the individual candidate. I would highly recommend Deb and her team to anyone looking for a professional and success focused search firm.”

“John-Stuart was amazing. I felt like I had a partner at my side who knew my strength and what I was looking for in my next career move.  He took the time to ensure I understood the role, the Company  and guided me through the interview processes. John-Stuart was at my side every step of the way ensuring I was kept abreast of each phase and the was able to advise me through the offer stage.  He is a true professional!”

“Deb and team at Bonell Ryan were amazing. I’ve worked with executive recruitment firms prior and Bonell Ryan was the best. They were very thorough in the upfront steps, taking the time to properly screen me, help me understand the role and prepare me prior to the interview process.  Deb acted as a consultant throughout the interview and offer stage, helping me match my skills to the role / interview panel and finally secure an offer. I was constantly kept updated and engaged; we always had a next step established and I trusted Deb to identify what was next. Wonderful team!”
