Jocelyn Yacoub and her national team have had a significant impact on my career both as a candidate as well as a client.  They recruited me to work for SNC-Lavalin in Montreal and monitored my career as I became CFO at Altalink in Calgary.  At Altalink, they helped me to structure and build my entire finance and administration team with service that was consistently excellent.”

I have been fortunate enough to work with Yacoub and Associates as both a candidate and client.  I was initially place by Y&A in a senior Human Resource position in Montreal.  Upon my move to the Home Depot Canada in 2005, I continued my relationship with Y&A as a client.  They have become one of Home Depot’s preferred search firms over the last couple of years.  Their passion and enthusiasm around “finding the right person for the right job” and truly living up to their commitment, sets them apart from many other search firms I have worked with in the last twenty years of my career. Jocelyn and her team have the unique ability to get to know their candidates personally and professionally which enables them to source and hire the best candidates for the many companies they have forged strong and long-lasting relationships with over the years.  Y&A spends time with business leaders and the recruiting team to ensure they truly understand the organization’s culture, the candidate’s profile; what are the technical and leadership qualifications that will allow a new hire to be successful in their position and more importantly, are they a cultural fit, a key ingredient to any successful placement.  Y&A has a proven track with Home Depot; to date they have placed over 12 new hires with us and I would strongly recommend them to any company looking for Human Resources, Finance or Operations professionals.

“I worked with Y&A as both a candidate and a client for many years.  Jocelyn and Jody worked closely with me in my previous position as VP, Tax and continue to do so in my new position as SVP, Controller. The team at Y&A worked directly with me to target and attract the best talent for my teams. This collaborative relationship allowed us to build an exceptional tax team. Furthermore, Y&A was very helpful in identifying and recruiting additional talent for my current finance team.  I was also very pleased to experience Y&A’s diligence in the recruitment for my former position as VP, Tax.  Y&A’s professionalism, integrity, an in-depth market intelligence and their availability were all factors that contributed to the success of our organization’s recruiting needs.”

“Y&A provides concise & comprehensive research of the market for each search. They display strong judgment and thorough interviewing and profiling of all candidates. The Y&A team works with a true spirit of partnership in managing through each search.”

"It has truly been a pleasure working with such a great group of professional who not only work hard and go that extra mile but can also have fun at the same time. I look forward to continuing our working and personal relationships in Calgary.”

Yacoub & Associates est pour moi une source privilégiée pour le recrutement de candidat en finance et en comptabilité.  Après de vaines tentatives de recrutement interne, je me suis tournée vers Y&A pour me trouver une personne en ressources humaines, spécialisée en rémunération, mandat qu'ils ont acquittés haut la main!  IIs ont passé en revue des dizaines de CV afin de satisfaire mes exigences pour le moins difficiles.  Merci Pascale pour cette belle réussite!

“For a number of years now, Y&A has been our strategic partner in sourcing the very best talent for our organization.  They have provided us with high potential individuals who have rapidly demonstrated the leadership capabilities to progress within the company.  They are a very committed and professional team of recruiting experts!!!”
