    Nick established a close rapport with me right away and provided the support I needed to successfully get the job. He did not treat me as one more applicant. He always kept me informed on the steps and status of the process. His leadership helped get the career opportunity.
  • Ryan Cassidy

    Vice President of Real Estate, Mutual Housing California
    Even though Reneris was hired by the employer, I felt like they also had my interest in mind. The even-handed/fairness of the process was good. I came to trust Dominique´s opinion and saw that she wanted to make a good match. This was definitely the right place for me, I can’t imagine a better fit.
  • Tejal Shah

    VP of Community Development, Mutual Housing California
    Reneris was very supportive and helpful throughout the process. I think they were able to support me with my goals. I would recommend Reneris to other professionals seeking new opportunities because they are professional and responsive to candidates.
  • Jennifer Ingram

    SVP Equity & Inclusion, MidPen Housing Corporation
    I had a great experience working with Dominique. She was communicative, thoughtful, and supportive every step of the way. She provided relevant insight and took the time to understand the aspects that were most important to me. She advocated on my behalf and offered candid feedback. Even onboarding she checked in on me and ensured all was well.
  • Shawnta´ Duckworth

    Director of Enrollment Management, The Lillian and Betty Ratner Montessori School
    My overall experience was amazing. I appreciated the personal touch. I felt like Reneris knew me personally. The before-interview prep helps get the nervousness out. I believe if it wasn’t for Reneris I wouldn’t have even known about the job. They give their all in helping find an exceptional opportunity.
  • Cynthia Alvarez

    Chief Operating Officer, Christian Church Homes (CCH)
    Reneris were true partners and put me at ease throughout the process and made sure I had relevant information throughout. As recruiters, they carry their work with integrity, and professionalism and are supportive throughout. Dominique spent time getting to know me to understand my priorities and values and ensure alignment. I am grateful to Reneris and am glad they occupy the recruitment space in our affordable housing world.
  • Abby Westbrook

    I was recruited by Dominique and her team for a nonprofit leadership role in Cleveland. Dominique was a dream to work with. She is honest, transparent, and communicative throughout the whole process. She made what can be a stressful experience much more easeful and is truly committed to fostering a mutually good fit.

      Chairperson, Board of Directors, Christian Church Homes (CCH)
      Dominique was a joy to work with! She was patient with us as we went through the joys and challenges of searching for a new CEO. She made our job so much easier by searching for the right people, getting responses to our questions, and being present during our interviews. She listened as we raised questions and discerned together. I highly recommend Dominique and Reneris.
    • Janine Lind

      Chief Operating Officer, MidPen Housing Corporation

      I have engaged with Reneris for over 5 years now for critical and non-critical searches within our organization. It has been a pleasure working with the team. Over the years I have observed how Reneris has gained solid understanding of the nonprofit real estate development and operations sector and has applied this knowledge to the search for new candidates. The ability to understand MidPen, our culture, our guiding principles, and our values has been critical in each search to find the right candidates for us who not only share these same principles, but also are additive to our culture and the team.

      I have worked with many search firms throughout my career and have appreciated the communication practices that are in place at Reneris. You take the time with each search to have a thorough understanding of our needs, you provide us with insights about candidates you are speaking with to make sure we are both aligned, and you have kept each of our hiring managers informed about the process and progress you are making. Because of all this, I have and will continue to refer Reneris as a great partner when there is a need to engage with a search firm.

    • David Howden

      President Board of Directors, Housing California

      Housing California began a search for a new executive director in early 2022. The Executive Committee of the Board of Directors conducted a thorough search and review of multiple firms to identify the right one that would be best suited to assist with our organization’s needs. The Committee unanimously chose Reneris over the other firms interviewed.

      Right from the start, Dominique was extremely easy to work with. She spent a lot of time understanding not just who Housing California was searching for, but more so, the mission, values, and needs of the organization in the sector – and how all of those intersected with the skills and experiences needed, both in the immediate, but also for the growth of the next leader and the future of the organization. Given the unique role(s) and constituencies that Housing California represents, this understanding is exceedingly more complex than it is for most organizations. Regardless of this complexity, Dominique was dedicated to spending time with the committee, but also with a larger number of interested external partners in order to truly understand the type of candidate that would be successful for the organization.

    • Andrea Osgood

      Chief Real Estate Development Officer, Eden Housing Inc.
      Dominique knows the industry well and really spends the time with the client to understand the position and qualities of the firm that set us apart for potential candidates. She also plays a bit of a career coach role with candidates – highlighting how certain roles will help them achieve their career goals. Reneris and Dominique have specialized in our unique industry so she is able to lean into a wealth of contacts to widen the search and find great candidates. I particularly liked the follow-up after interviews and we have a more elaborate hiring process that requires the candidates to complete an exercise, which in certain hiring climates can be a bigger ask. Dominique was able to get candidates to buy into this process and fully engage with our process which helps us get to know the candidate’s technical and presentation skills – a must for us! Tailored efforts, industry knowledge, and results!
