Message from our President

Hello!

2009 might not have been the most ideal year for most financial recruiters, but I spent the last year working on a completely new business model for Adams, Inc.  This serves all of our clients and candidates more effectively.  On January 1st of this year, we implemented a new program, Market Mastery.  Since I started the company 27 years ago, our recruiters have  

enjoyed tremendous success and recognition from clients nationwide by being able to work anywhere in the country.  Market Mastery allows each of our recruiters to pick a geographical territory, becoming the market insider and getting to know every single person and company in their market space.

We know that being a market expert will enhance our credibility in the markets we serve.  It is our opinion that a superior recruiter is one who has the ability to be an active participant in their client's industry and a master of that client's market.  Each recruiter's market must be small enough that they are able to maintain a level of dominance in terms of industry expertise in that segment.  However, it must also be large enough that it can provide enough space to serve the largest audience possible.

We have come up with an acronym called "FILL" - function, industry, location and level - a great way of ensuring that we meet all of the appropriate criteria for the market mastery.  Our recruiters now have the right combination of these four criteria in order to ensure that they truly understand their client's market!  We are constantly striving to find new ways to bring more value to all of you so now please visit our website to see a listing of our recruiters and the Market Mastery territories they now exclusively serve!

Have your best month ever! 

Jay Adams     
President
