Tanner & Associates has a Proven Track Record

Tanner & Associates specializes in contacting and building relationships with only the highest caliber of potential hires. We ensure that any person submitted by our firm has been prequalified, prescreened and will be a potential hire. We will only send persons capable of filling the job, making it easy for our clients to select the ideal person for the position.

Our success lies in our ability to efficiently sift through our proprietary database, developed through many decades of conducting industry searches, and quickly identify ideal candidates.  This process results in immediate leads, many times allowing us to respond with well-qualified, pre-screened candidates in twenty-four hours.  In short, Tanner & Associates has the drive and experience necessary to quickly find qualified candidates to fill your desired position in an expeditious manner that meets the timeline stipulations.

In today’s world of job boards and online applications, an incomprehensible amount of data is available for hiring managers to analyze. HR is often overwhelmed and understaffed. Many times HR has quality people in their database that they will never find due to the time it takes to sort through the massive amounts of data. Even with this overflow of candidates, many ideally targeted hires will never respond to board or advertisement. Due to sensitivity issues of finding a new position, these candidates will only look at positions through professional recruiters.

Most of the top biotech and pharmaceutical companies now work with a restricted list of recruiters handpicked because of their track record for delivering quality candidates. Only contracted Recruiters are allowed to submit resumes and can arrange interviews for their candidates. Craig Tanner and Associates is proud to be one of these select Recruiters. Many of our assignments are on a retainer basis ensuring that our Clients receive the full benefit of our experience and expertise. Many of our original candidates, placed years ago, are now in leadership positions, giving us direct communication to management. As a result, we feel that we can be particularly effective in placing qualified candidates with our Clients.

We have built our reputation and position through honesty, discretion and effective results. With any of our Applicants, we promise an honest representation, direct feedback, and confidentiality. We never send a resume to any company without the permission of our candidates and we never conduct “mass mailings”. This ensures a productive experience for all parties involved.
