CTPartners Reports Audited 2009 Candidate Stick Rate of 90%

Stick Rate is defined by CTPartners' management as the measure of whether the placed candidate has remained in the same, similar or elevated position with its client over a specified period of time. The audit was conducted by McGladrey & Pullen, Certified Public Accountants.

Brian Sullivan, CEO of CTPartners, said, "We applaud our clients who have remained vigilant about retaining the top talent that we have, together, successfully recruited. This motivates our firm to continue to raise the bar on our performance. In this economic climate, more accountability is needed in business and we continue to believe that this sends a message to our clients that they are selecting a search partner with a clear, positive track record."
