RECRUITMENT PROPOSAL RECRUITMENT PROPOSAL

Koff & Associates (“K&A”) is an experienced public-sector consulting firm that has been assisting
Introduction their executive and staff level recruitment needs and other human resources needs for thirty-five
cities, counties, special districts, educational institutions, courts, and other public agencies with

(35) years. K&A Recruiting, a subsidiary of Koff & Associates, is well qualified to support you
with your executive search efforts because of our extensive experience recruiting throughout the
State of California in the public sector. We have successfully placed numerous executives and
managers with cities, counties, public agencies, JPAs, and non-profit organizations, and are confi-
dent we can accomplish a successful placement for the City of Calistoga.

To guide successful placements, we build recruitment projects around the unique needs of each
position, including tapping into our internal network to spread the word and grow the candidate
pool. For over 35 years, we have been facilitating recruiting projects and providing a wide variety
of other human resources services of the utmost quality. We have made a real tangible differ-
ence for many hundreds of public agencies and their respective workplaces throughout California
and as a result have forged strong, authentic relationships with countless agency employees.

As a recently formed subsidiary of Koff & Associates, K&A Recruiting is emerging as a leader.
Recruiting firms in the public sector have been outpaced by the trajectory of the industry.
Combining our already extensive network with a forward-thinking and modern recruiting
philosophy, K&A Recruiting is providing an opportunity for advancement.

K&A Recruiting’s modern recruiting philosophy incorporates professional recruiting software and
techniques that expand the candidate pool for a given recruitment. By expanding the candidate
pool, we can construct a stronger slate of recommended candidates, and ultimately a higher-
quality placement, beyond the status quo the public sector has come to expect. Additionally, by
using digital and visually friendly binders, we provide transparency into our process, which holds
our firm to a high-level of integrity, ups the level of collaboration, and gives your team the detail
needed to feel confident when deciding whom to hire.

Our empathetic understanding of client cultures and individual candidate plight ensures that we
stay true to our public sector roots, and makes for a highly effective balance.

As Chief Executive Officer of the firm, I would be Co-Project Director for the recruitment effort
