“The training team and Next Level Exchange continue to meet and exceed our training needs. They do a fantastic job of covering real-world challenges our new recruiters are likely to face, and leave them feeling prepared and excited for the challenges they will inherit.”

“We have had several new recruiters go through the FFT program. What I like most about the training is that it encourages our new employees to think for themselves. We have a fairly structured, well-established internal training, but we also strive to continually improve. Prior to doing the FFT training, we had our new hires watch the videos on NLE, but having a classroom setting to discuss the videos along with a professional facilitator to help guide the discussion, the learning experience is greatly improved. Each recruiter who has gone through the FFT training has brought new ideas to our company. It is an investment of both time and money to do the FFT training, but I feel it pays dividends in the long run.”
Mark Stocker, President

“After completing the FFT program, my recruiter is off to a great start with 3 recent placements, a new retained CEO search, and another deal to close soon. This was all accomplished in her first 90 days.”
Brian Rhonemus, CEO
Rhonemus Group
“Our trainer took extra time into assuring our recruiters learned techniques to constantly be in the pursuit of their “next level”. NLE’s passion for teaching and training and the first class materials of this course have given our company new insights and many tools that we never had. It has introduced us to important concepts that we hadn’t thought of or focused on before. Everyone in our company has taken the course and all have said it is like drinking from a fire hose. But when finished, we are better for it. We are taking baby steps to implement the FFT materials and use the NLE resources to help us make the changes that will make our company better.”
Dave Allen, President

“This program allows me to hire new recruiters (with or without experience) and get them up and running quickly! I enrolled 2 new recruiters in this program and on their second day I had to leave for 6 weeks due to a family illness. This program got them off to a GREAT start and when I returned they were recruiting like pros! This program is BEST in the business!”
Tricia Mountain, CEO
Rowland Mountain Associates
“My new recruiter came out of the gate swinging and made two placements in her first 45 days. Excellent training!”
Juli Smith, President

“NLE training is a great way to start new or experienced recruiters. We definitely will continue to use this tool as we hire additional staff.”

“We chose Facilitated Foundation Training Program for 2 new Search Consultants on my team at Parkwood and it was exactly what they needed. They learned exponentially but were pressured every day to keep up with the program. This offered them the simulation of the emotions on the desk. They came out guns a blazing and each acquired 3 clients within 2 weeks of completions.”
Senior Manager

“The Facilitated Foundation Training Program provides us with a competitive edge when recruiting new talent into our firm. Prospective new employees love knowing that they will be part of a nationwide training program which teaches them the fundamentals of our business. In addition, our management team benefits because they are freed up to focus on the more company specific or industry specific components of the new hire training, leaving the fundamentals to the FFT team.”
David Hayes, President

“Since we are able to offer this training, it helps us differentiate our firm from others. We invest in our new hires right out of the gate. It surprises candidates that we have a training program like this being a young firm.”

“NLE’s FFT training program is truly top notch- I use it to train all my new hires on search methodology, allowing an easy handoff back to me for niche-specific training.”

“The Facilitated Foundation Training program works well for our firms training objectives for our recruiters. We find the program provides our new recruiters the fundamental blocking and tackling foundation to begin their recruiting careers. We have also found it a good refresher of fundamentals for experienced recruiters.”
Jim Chadbourne

“I found this to be an excellent “foundation” course and it’s just that – a foundation. Of course, all firms have best practices that work specifically for their industry or niche, but the course is well-rounded and covers all the basics of recruiting. We have continually used individual NLE courses as part of our ongoing training, even for seasoned recruiters. The trainers are excellent trainer and we appreciated the constant feedback and observations to our recruiters in training. Thank you!”
Andrea Asbell, Vice President
Bloomfield & Company
“We’ve used the Facilitated foundation training program for our last few hires and it is an immensely helpful tool, particularly the work done on developing scripts and role playing case critical scenarios.”
Betsy Elliott, President

“I was an ‘early adopter’ of the Next Level Exchange training and have been a huge fan from the beginning! I love the Foundation Training program – and having it facilitated really brought it to another level of impact. It made the content ‘come alive’ in a way reading and watching alone hadn’t done! Loved it – I’d recommend it to everyone, new or not, as a way to really develop as a professional.”
Peg Newman, Managing Partner
Sanford Rose Associates – Salt Lake City
“The trainers of Facilitated Foundation are very attentive and service driven individual. Combine that with their knowledge of the recruiting space, passion for training, and resources of NLE and you have a program that provides first rate service and results.”
Doug McClure, Director of Recruiting Services

“I decided to put my entire staff through the Facilitated Foundation Training program. Half of them have now completed it and from the feedback I’ve received thus far the only question I have is; “why did I wait so long”?”
Brian Wright

“I hired a new full desk recruiter and enrolled her in the foundation training class. The instructor did an excellent job training my new recruiter on every aspect of the recruiting process. I would highly recommend this training to anyone.”
