Kirk Walton’s Summary

I have been in recruiting since January of 2004 and have specialized in a variety of areas, particularly Project Management, Business Analysis, and Quality Assurance / Software Testing - but have experience recruiting in most IT-related areas (and can try and help to find roles for anyone in IT).

In October 2009, I returned to Hollstadt & Associates where I was a recruiter for over 2 1/2 years. H&A is one of the most well-respected consulting firms in the Twin Cities, consistently finishing in the Minneapolis-St. Paul Business Journal's Top Ten Management Consulting Firms, and a recent recipient of a National Business Ethics Award. I'd be happy to share more about the firm and discuss potential opportunities at any time, just drop me a line at kwalton@hollstadt.com!
