Stacy Holland
Founder/CEO at IRC USA - Exceptional People, International & IRC Global Technology Practice Leader
“Stacy Holland and the Exceptional People team are the best I've seen in the industry. Rather than the typical headhunter "let me unload my inventory on you" model, Exceptional People takes the time to truly understand your business and in a collaborative way clearly define the type of candidate that will best succeed in the role you are looking to fill.
I'm certain the vetting process is highly effective because every candidate introduced to us was worthwhile speaking with. From start-to-finish the Exceptional People team is professional and responsive. I will use their results oriented services again.”
