Their expertise in executive recruitment truly sets them apart, and I would not hesitate to engage their services again in the future. If you're seeking top-tier executive talent, look no further than PSS.
I cannot recommend PSS highly enough for their exceptional services in finding our Chief Financial Officer. From the moment we engaged with them, it was evident that their expertise and dedication were unmatched.
Throughout the entire process, PSS demonstrated professionalism, transparency, and unwavering commitment. Their thorough vetting process ensured that we were presented with only the most qualified candidates, saving us valuable time and resources.
They were proactive in their communication, providing regular updates and guidance at every stage to both sides until the joining of the candidate.Thanks to their efforts, we were able to secure a CFO who has already made a significant impact on our company.

PSS is a firm that is extremely results driven, client-centric and long-term relationship oriented.
In my over 25 years of a meaningful Professional relationship with Personnel Search Services and Ray & Berndtson, I have found them to be a firm that is extremely results driven, client-centric and long-term relationship oriented. There is a genuine desire to understand client specific needs, culture, style of working and desired outcomes and in their shortlisting of prospective candidates a high degree of filtration is applied at their end itself.
This ensures a far better utilization of Client time, quality of effort and speed of execution. I have found Mr Mario Lobo and his team to be of unimpeachable integrity, strong work ethic and a genuine passion for Client success.

PSS helped me close the President of Sales, a critical position which was open for a long time until PSS handled it and brought it to a close.
My overall experience of PSS-R&B has been excellent. Speed of delivery, meticulous research, involvement and the ability to effectively counsel, negotiate and close have been what I have experienced of them. Through this, PSS helped me close the President of Sales in my previous organization, a critical position which was open for a long time until PSS handled it and brought it to a close.
An over 35 years of legacy as India’s first Executive Search firm based on a strong set of values, a professional approach combined with an entrepreneurial mindset has made the difference.

PSS makes the Client think of new ways of looking and assessing talent.
We recently had to fill Senior Executive positions (COO and Vice President) for USV and the first name I thought of was Mario and PSS because of their connection with the industry, service orientation and ability to understand the Client’s requirement. Mario and the team spends time to understand what exactly would be a right fit and PSS makes the Client think of new ways of looking and assessing talent.
I am happy to say that the new hires we have done through PSS have been yielded the desired results to USV. I thank Mario and his team for their services and look forward to working with them in the future too.

PSS has helped us close several positions. They are quick to respond (between sharing the job description and sharing relevant profiles) and immediately provide a list of suited candidates.

The understanding of my needs and customized support that PSS Consultants have extended every time saves so much of my time and energy.
The deep knowledge and information that the consultants of PSS have in their domains is impressive and enables them to close niche and difficult searches.
The understanding of my needs and customized support that PSS Consultants have extended every time is truly appreciated. It saves so much of my time and energy. For eg. I was looking out for a C&B Head for my company and within 1 hour of my meeting, my PSS Consultant could understand my needs and also the cultural and behavioral attributes I was looking for. This resulted in a quick and quality closure of the position.

PSS makes the Client think of new ways of looking and assessing talent.
For the last 8 – 9 years PSS has been associated with me through my present organization Naprod and through my earlier companies like Lafarge, Damac Properties Dubai & TUV India. I would say it’s been a great journey together, as the PSS team specially comes across as thorough professionals with functional expertise. Their diversified reach in terms of industries is I believe one of the important elements of their services.
I strongly believe that what differentiates PSS from other Executive Search firms is their “PEOPLE”. The required expertise, professional skills, relationship building and transparency can be seen together in one team. It has been a wonderful experience to interact with them.

PSS- R&B has a first hand knowledge of the market which is built on personal associations with senior people over years of networking.
The best part of working with PSS is that unlike my experience with other firms, I know the actual resource who is working on the project and in most cases that is the person with the relevant experience and understanding of the account and background.
It makes life much easier because there is a clear understanding and the results reflect the same. PSS- R&B has a first hand knowledge of the market which is built on personal associations with senior people over years of networking.

PSS has been our one of the most dependable search partners over the last few years.
PSS has been our one of the most dependable search partners over the last few years. Mid to CXO levels are their forte and we have been able to close many positions in record time as they understand the “Transformational qualities” that we are looking at most leaders.
Also the ownership of closure is never delegated to junior researchers the Top leadership team actively gets involved from “understanding of the role” to “successful on-boarding”. Most leaders we have hired not only settled well also have been able to show early results and excellent cultural syncing.

They were thorough in assessing, presenting and recommending the candidates in the most professional manner.
We had retained the Executive Search Services of PSS for a critical and urgent global Lifesciences position. The requirement had its share of complexities as the ideal candidate needed to be a person with a techno-commercial background and a strong global Lifesciences experience. In delivering this assignment, PSS had to keep in mind the standards and requirements of IFC, which is a part of the World Bank Group.
The team at PSS was able to get an accurate understanding of our needs and was able to present a wide choice of quality candidates from India, US and other countries, all within the set timelines.
