Testimonials

Just reaching out to say that each day I am more grateful for this opportunity that Linda & Ciara helped to make possible. I cannot express in words how much they have done for me. They listened and delivered on every point – location, salary, responsibilities, benefits, etc. They provided advice and encouragement and were with me on every step of this journey, and I appreciate them both. I am looking forward to many years at my new firm, but should anything change, they will be the first ones I call!”

Linda was thoughtful and strategic when discussing my job search. She coached me on realistic goals and what the best steps would be for my career. Linda will take the time to ensure a fit where she knows all her clients will grow and succeed. She takes her time to get to know her clients and builds an actual relationship instead of throwing darts at a board like many recruiters out there. Lease & LaBau will continue to be my go-to firm throughout my career because of the personal service and outstanding professionalism.”

Lease & LaBau have been a critical element in helping us build a highly skilled and integrated MBD team. I can rely on Linda's judgement and reach to bring us not only well-qualified candidates, but also people who will fit with our existing team and firm culture. Her commitment and responsiveness to her clients is second-to-none. She and her team are a true pleasure to work with and their results are consistently excellent.”

My experience of working with Lease & LaBau was exceptional. From start to final offer, Linda Lease and Christina Scott were attentive, patient, and considerate of my needs and what I was looking for. Never had I thought that finding a new job and relocating from Washington, DC to New York, NY would be as easy as it was until I started working with Lease & LaBau.
