About Terry Wilcox and Shannon Wilcox

In today’s competitive market, sourcing the best talent is more difficult than ever before. We live in one of the most developed economies in the world, with unemployment at the lowest it has been in the past 17 years.

If you’re an employer looking for new staff then you are in for a challenge. Today finding top talent that is reliable, accountable and that exceeds minimum expectations can be very difficult. Usually the top talent is often working for other companies or is unaware of any openings that you may have if they are not actively searching. That is where we come in. We source top candidates, who may or may not be searching for a job change, and we identify the best people for your open job.

Terry Wilcox brings to the table 30+ years of experience that will give you the best edge. He began his career as a Chemical Engineer/Shift Supervisor with a fortune 500 company. His many roles in successive years give him a multifaceted view of all aspects of management. His career culminated as Vice President of Manufacturing for Zoetis /Pfizer and he was able to retire early.

Shannon Wilcox is a young professional that has continually been successful in recruitment and job matching for his clients. In his previous role, Shannon worked as a recruiter for Maxim Healthcare Services sourcing for nursing needs and other healthcare professionals. He quickly was promoted to a recruiter lead manager where he mentored other young recruiters. His knowledge of recruitment in today’s world and the energy he brings to the table will be greatly beneficial in your job search.

Helen Nourai's expertise and professionalism was impeccable!

I would love to share my sincere appreciation for the opportunity to work with, the one and only, Ms. Helen Nourai. During our discussion, I found our conversation to be insightful and impactful. I literally was taking notes as she and I were talking. She was thorough in her assessment of me and my endeavors, Helen Nourai's expertise and professionalism was impeccable; it was clear to me that she was a veteran at the services she provided.
Although Helen was a recruiter; I felt that she ALSO was an advocate for me, as well. It was truly a pleasure and a vibe to have an encounter with her. Words cannot express my gratitude for meeting her. I truly believe that she was God sent to me. Everything I expressed to her that I was looking for, she delivered, and more. I firmly believe that I have this opportunity because of her diligence.
Thank You,
Destiny W.
