About Kim Herlitzka

I’ve been building trust in the recruitment business for over 25 years by making and keeping one promise at a time. Trust is built by doing what you say you’re going to do and by doing the right thing for your clients and candidates every time – even when no one is watching. I knew right away that this career was a perfect fit and I’ve never looked back. I love it here. I love learning about companies and their needs, getting to know candidates and their stories, and then matching the two of them up so that both parties have what they want. I feel fortunate that I work in a career that I love and that I\'m part of a collaborative, supportive and fun team of passionate professionals. This is my career. I’m not in it for one transaction or a quick placement. Everything I do today is with the intention of building lasting relationships and trust down the road.I’ve learned a lot during the years I’ve spent in this profession. Here’s what I believe:• Long-term relationships are essential.• Do the right thing every day and it’ll pay off in the long run.• Always take the high road. Period.• Confidentiality is critical. Our business hinges on the fact that our clients and candidates are willing to talk to us. If they tell us something confidential, we treat it that way.If you are interested in learning more about how I can help you, please message me on Linked In or contact me at k••••••••@truitypartners.com or 60••••••40.
