Testimonials

I have had the opportunity to work with Andy as a candidate several times now. Andy is great to work with on so many levels - he gets to know you and your strengths and interests, he is thorough in evaluating the fit of a potential role and he is meticulous at preparing you for the interview process. He provides useful and thoughtful feedback and keeps you informed every step of the way. In my experience with Andy, he does not "sell" a job, but instead seems to really act as a partner throughout the process - looking to make the best match possible for both the candidate and the employer. I have continued to work with Andy time and time again because of that partnership, and trust that he represents me in the way that I would hope and expect with future employers. In my view, that trust is so important and rare when working with a recruiter, and Andy has proven it to me time and time again.
Amee Desjourdy, VP of Human Resources - Enel North America

I've known Andy for a number of years and he has always delivered high caliber HR professionals. He really knows the business and has been a trusted partner in staffing. I would certainly recommend him and his firm to any company that has HR staffing needs.
Dawn Hirsch, SVP of HR for Lend Lease, Inc.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Andy on my personal search and found him to be personable, candid, and insightful.  It's clear that he takes pride in carefully matching candidates with employers to find the right "fit" and establishes a rare level of confidence and trust with both parties.  I truly enjoyed working with Andy and have since recommended him to several friends and colleagues and plan to call upon him again in the future. 
Sean Linnane, Sr. Director of HR, Quintiles Corporation (Head of HR for Outcome Sciences)

I've had a business relationship with Andy for approximately the last 9 yrs. He has assisted me in my personal career as well as provided outstanding sourcing and placement support for open HR positions on teams that I have led. Andy does an excellent job aligning individual skills with business and personal needs. He accomplishes this by listening intently to what a client is seeking and by investing time in learning the business. Andy values his relationships with his clients; he has an excellent reputation in the market. I strongly recommend him as business partner to any Company.
Paula Cassidy, Head of HR, Caliper Life Sciences, Inc.

Andy is a consummate recruiting professional who takes the time to
understand the person behind a resume. I would not be in the position I am
in today, Director of Talent Acquisition for Salient Surgical Technologies,
without Andy's keen ability to match Salient's goals and objectives with my
own skills and competencies. 
Don Cummings, President, Aptus Search
(former Director of Talent Acquisition, Salient Surgical Technologies)

I worked with Andrew a few years back and was blown away by his knowledge and his detailed grasp of the senior level search that he was working on. His personality as well as his insight into the Human Resources space showed tremendous industry knowledge. I would not hesitate to engage his new company services when the need arises.
Ron Thomas, former VP of HR and Learning, Martha Stewart Living, Inc.

During my first conversation with Andy back in 2002, he told me his overall goal with all his clients was to formulate an on-going professional relationship.  Since that initial meeting I can say that is definitely true!  I have turned to Andy numerous times over the last 7 years (and initial placement) for filling HR needs in my organization as well as discussing my own career path and objectives.  He knows the HR market very well and his opinions and professionalism are highly regarded and very appreciated.  I highly recommend Andy as an HR partner and wish Maxwell Solutions all the best!
Michelle DiDomenico, Genzyme Corporation

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Andy over the last 10 years, and he has placed me in great opportunities twice. Andy has a unique ability to balance the needs of his candidates with his clients. Andy took the time to really understand my career aspirations as well as the things that were most important to me in a potential new role. He always presented me with opportunities I felt had been designed just for me.
Kristin Eckelkamp, Dr. of HR for BMC Software, Inc.

Andy is well grounded in all aspects of HR and able to translate that across a broad range of roles, levels and types of business.  What makes him stand out is his understanding of the importance of “fit” in a successful placement.  He’s well attuned to the style, strengths and interests of each candidate, and the needs, opportunities, and cultures of each client and works hard to make the right match resulting in long-term relationships in both categories.  I strongly recommend Andy, and am happy to know he’s re-engaged in the Boston market.
Jennifer Peterson, SVP of HR, Intralinks, Inc.

I have worked with Andy for close to 10 years, he takes the time to understand the business, needs, and dynamcis of his clients and candidates. He is always professional and a pleasure to work with.
Kathy Breslin, Head of HR, Enservio

Andy and I have worked on 3 successful placements at my organization. He reached me through a cold call, so I was very skeptical of working with a new recruiter. Andy quickly won me over with the quality (not quantity) of candidates he presented. His ability to grasp the culture of our organization and the core competencies needed for the roles was spot on. His efficiency and resourcefulness surpassed my expectations. I would gladly work with him again.
Melissa Yeh, Former Head of HR , Altman Vilandrie

I have worked with Andy in the past on my own job search for a senior HR position, and I found him to be an extremely dedicated and results-oriented professional. He has excellent follow-up skills and maintains regular communications with his clients to insure that expectations are being met by all his clients. I enjoyed our interactions, and would welcome the opportunity to again work with him as either a candidate or hiring manager.
Linda Collins, Head of HR, Horizon Asset Management

Andy was the most responsive external recruiter I worked with during my search.  He was very good about returning calls and understanding what I was looking for in my next role.  I would recommend him.
Pat Kelly, Interim Director of HR, Novartis Diagnostics

Having worked with Andy for more than seven years, he has always been an ideal professional partner. He has an incredible ability to assess the skill set of his talent pool and appropriately map individuals to the needs of his clients. His deep expertise in Human Resources allows him to quickly qualify the best candidates, acting as a true extension of the recruiting team. His tireless effort and dedication to his searches has made him a valuable resource to our organization.
Ellen Murphy, Director of HR , MC Communications

It was a true pleasure to work with Andy.  I was referred to him as a passive candidate and  found him to be an extremely dedicated and results-oriented professional. His excellent follow-up and communications skills made the process seamless.  I would welcome the chance to use his services to build my team in my new role should the need arise.
Mag Goossens, Director of Executive Search, AOL.

Andy is a highly competent professional who understands the importance of the HR function in an organization. He worked with us on a very difficult search for an HR Director for our mid-sized internet company. Andy worked hard to understand our needs and successfully introduced us to candidates who had the right qualifications and were a good fit with the company culture. He was a pleasure to work with throughout.
Laurie Basch, Of Counsel, Cafemom - former SVP,

Steve Thomas, Sr. HR Business Partner, Dimension Data

I am pleased to extend and share my experience in using Maxwell Solutions maxellsolutionshr.com as one of our recruitment resources. We were looking for and needed a dynamic individual lead and drive change from the Head of Human Resources position; and elected to use a firm that is dedicated to the placement of human resource professionals. Andy Liberatos listened and then identified multiple excellent candidates. They were responsive, professional and worked with our organization to facilitate the selection process. The total level of services provided were excellent and comprehensive which allowed us to expedite the selection process.
– CIRTEC Medical Systems, Barry Smith, former President & CEO.

I have known Andy for over 10 years -- first as a candidate and then as a client. He placed me at a top tier private equity firm and provided guidance and clear commumication throughout every step of the process. This role was by far the best career experience for me following a long stint at Goldman Sachs. After dealing with many Wall Street search firms over the years, I now peg Andy as "THE" go-to person for a search. He is somone you want on your team and in working with him he simply "gets it". He has the recruiting instinct and saviness to pull together a strong match. Andy is an excellent communicator -- he listens and consistentely provides thoughtful feedback. He is honest, responsive and so very credible with his business. He has always delivered top quality candidates and does not just shuffle around resumes nor does he come across as a salesperson trying to close the deal. Andy understands the relationship component of this business and his client list speaks for itself -- he has fine-tuned his relationships across the market and his name is highly regarded. Andy is also on top of industry best practices and keeps a strong pulse on what is happening in the market. 
Christina Coughlin, President, Coughlin & Associates

Andy is the first person I call when an HR search is on the horizon. I trust his opinion and he knows the competitive landscape. He runs an outstanding process and becomes a true extension of our Recruiting Team. I highly recommend Andy & Maxwell Solutions. – Chris Hanson, VP of Talent Acquisition for Epsilon

In an industry like executive search, its rare to find a true partner that understands your business and has a high level of integrity - that's Andy Liberatos and Maxwell Solutions. To bring it to a very basic level - recruiting and executive search is all about cost effective results. When you get a set of profiles from Andy, you know they have been screened and selected precisely based on your technical requirements. But what really makes Andy's services extra special is that he has a deep understanding of the culture requirements of the position, because he has built a relationship with you and your company. For me this is most important. My experience with working with Andy at FreshDirect, Zeta Interactive and now at Big Fuel has been extremely successful and I have no doubt that I will continue to use Andy in the future. He is and will always be an invaluable part of my executive search strategy.  
Anthony L. Onesto, Chief Talent Officer, Big Fuel Communications

I met Andy 10 years ago when he helped fill my HR Director position at a medical communications company in Boston. I cannot say enough about his level of professionalism, diligence, knowledge of the field and relationship building skills. Andy takes the time to truly understand the position you are looking to fill as well the company culture. He asks the right questions and approaches the search in a true partnership fashion. I value his opinion and know he will always go the extra mile to successfully complete a search. As an HR Executive with 20+ years of experience, Andy is one of the few people I would call if I was searching for an HR opportunity or had an HR position to fill.
– Elizabeth Famiglietti Vice President, Human Resources Pan Communications

I was fortunate to receive a call from Andy regarding a role that is a perfect fit for my background and career goals. He understands his clients, candidates and the job requirements so completely that he truly stands out among his peers. Andy managed the hiring process with the highest level of integrity and professionalism. I completely trusted Andy through the entire process as he consistently provided updates and his expertise during many rounds of interviews. His intelligence, wisdom and intuitiveness are qualities that are second to none. I strongly recommend Andy to clients and candidates in need of his talent.  
Maria Note Vice President, Human Resources, New York Road Runners

I have worked with Andy over the years both on the candidate side and client side and time again have found myself impressed by him. At a time when customer service, follow up and responsiveness have gone out the window, Andy has taken it to a new level of exceptional service. Andy has always, truly always, responds to me within a few hours if not sooner. This shows Andy’s dedication, commitment, and integrity to his work and the people he works with. I believe Andy cares about his candidates and his clients with equal passion to deliver excellence. Andy is honest and thorough in his feedback but in a way that is highly receptive, respected and useful. A true business partner! The caliber of candidates he works with are innovative, talented professionals in the HR craft. Andy is an expert of assessment, delivery and subsequent follow up. I have come to trust Andy wholeheartedly and he earns his credibility rather quickly. I would recommend Andy to any great organization looking for impeccable service or to a candidate looking for that next right job.
