Client Reviews

It was such a pleasure working with you and learning about your business. I aspire to build a life for myself they way you and your mother did.  Your ethic is truly inspiring! I look forward to talking more and growing this relationship with you. 

I am so happy I walked into my dad's office that day and met you. I can't thank you enough for assisting me and mentoring me through this process. You have opened my eyes to new possibilities, provided me with many interview tips and tricks, and connected me with so many amazing individuals, I never even imagined I would be talking to. I sincerely appriciate you taking the time to get to know me and supporting my decision to relocate.  I am so fortunate to have somebody with your industry success take the time to review my background and assist me with my search.  Thank you so much for your time, your energy, your guidance and the inspiration you have given me.

I met with Angela Stephens when I began looking for a new opportunity. She reviewed my resume, assessed my background, and provided honest and helpful suggestions. When we met again, I was surprised by her deep knowledge of how LinkedIn works, particularly in relation to how executives utilize the platform and where they are looking for new talent.

I highly recommend Angela Stephens as a career coach at www.refocuscareers.com, a mentor, or for working with her in her executive search firm, www.astephensandassociates.com. Additionally, she owns three companies, and I received one of the Executive Faux Leather Password Books from her other business, RE-FOCUS THE CREATIVE OFFICE (www.time2refocus.com). I love it! This company offers great products to help you focus and refocus.

After a long-term struggle with my resume, I found immense help from Angela! Her thoughtful and full-of-energy nature guided my resume to its perfection.

​Angela showed herself as an excellent consultant who knows how to highlight your professional strengths and reach an employer’s expectations. Moreover, she became not only a consultant but also a “therapist”, making me believe in myself. I am sincerely grateful for her attentive and thoughtful work full of vital advice! 

It was a pleasure to work with Angela as a candidate. She first obtained a good understanding of my aspirations. Then she linked me with a great opportunity which aligned with my passion. She was with me every step of the way being my cheerleader and coached me through the entire process. Blessed to have her and would recommend her to both any company and candidate. Great win-win!

Most retained recruiters can find an executive who has the skill sets for a given role, but Angela Stephens adds her unique ability to find a long-term match for both the corporation and for candidate. She puts her incredible energy and business savvy to into every search, resulting in deep a understanding of the corporate culture AND the culture of the leadership team before suggesting a candidate. Through her extensive knowledge of various industries and success in growing her own business, Angela understands that failure is not an option when placing that next executive on your team. Simply put, Angela will find a candidate that will grow your business and enhance your leadership team. 

Angela is one of those special people who not only help you find a great position that aligns with your goals and requirements, but she also cares to regularly keep in touch with you long after the hiring process is complete. She truly tries to make sure the person and the position are a 'fit' in every way and provides advice, guidance and even the occasional shoulder to cry on when things seem difficult. I would strongly recommend Angela to anyone who is seeking an executive level position in the workforce.

Angela is unmatched in her ability to understand the always evolving and increasingly overlapping career marketplace in the areas of nutrition, food and pharma. She possesses a level of sophistication combined with a sincere caring that makes her a highly unique career adviser, especially for those focused on nutrition-related careers. All said, Angela is an expert career consultant worth connecting with whether you are actively in the job market or not. Highly recommend!

Angela is incredibly dedicated and hard-working. She maintains a very flexible and 'can-do' spirit in every situation. She is known for being able to figure out solutions to very complex client needs. She is calm and collected, but enthusiastic and energized - a great combination for an executive search consultant.

Angela is a diligent and professional individual who is dedicated and committed to her searches, clients and candidates. She is high energy and full of enthusiasm. Angela has a breadth of experience across many functional areas and multiple industries. She is a pleasure to work with and know.

I worked closely with Angela for several years and saw her perform in many different and challenging circumstances. Angela is always very professional; she goes out of her way to deliver outstanding customer service. Angela always exhibited a positive, upbeat and professional attitude internally to the Firm as well as to our clients and customers. I highly recommend Angela – she is a top professional recruiter.

Angela is without a doubt the single best executive recruiter I have ever worked with. She takes the time to really know her clients, their skills sets beyond what you see on paper, and match them with absolutely the best opportunities. You can be confident in knowing that Angela is on your side and “fighting” for you as the best candidate for a given opportunity. We have kept in contact over several years and discussed several different opportunities. When we discussed the one that simply felt right, she was very transparent through the entire process, she stayed very engaged, kept me updated on a consistent and regular basis and truly went to bat for me. Angela is also the number one executive recruiter I recommend close colleges reach out to.
