A lot of attention is given to what a great resume looks like from its content to its ideal length, but there is often less focus on the anatomy of a strong job description.

Gilman Partners has hired talent management executive Mary Morand to lead its newly formed Talent Advisory Practice.
For nearly 40 years, Cincinnati-based Gilman Partners has identified, recruited, and placed top leaders for clients throughout the Midwest as a retained executive search firm.

Top talent is often attracted to big companies that can woo them with a well-known brand, large budgets and generous benefits. But highly qualified candidates shouldn't overlook the opportunities that can come from working for smaller organizations.
With the tight job market making it harder to find senior-level leaders, many organizations are turning to executive search firms to assist with sourcing and hiring top talent. Though these relationships can sometimes be short-term projects, choosing to engage a retained executive search firm can drive even better results for your company in both the short and long term.
Gilman Partners is pleased to announce that Garry Horton has joined the retained executive search firm as a Search Consultant. He will join the team in supporting senior recruiters on their searches.
