Sarah Corrigan, SVP HR/EHS at IWCOI've had the pleasure of knowing and working with Raj for many years. While he definitely possesses a brilliant strategic mind his most distinguishing skill is elevating the best in the people he works with. We've worked on many projects together and I always find myself a little bit smarter when we're done. Raj is always on the top of my list when I'm looking to add talent to my team or when I'm simply working through a business challenge.
Kevin Dean, COO of Infutor Data SolutionsRaj, and the entire Buffkin / Baker team demonstrated deep proficiency in helping our team identify and recruiting candidates for senior leadership roles. Through their process, they helped us assess the qualities that best matched the exact needs of our business. I recommend Buffkin / Baker to any organization looking for a recruiting experience that delivers real results for their business.
Chris Paquette at Deep IntentUtilizing Buffkin / Baker to secure a CEO/Executive Director was a great success for our foundation. After some fits and starts internally as we got started, we were introduced to Roland Lundy and he quickly organized our search team, readily identifying exactly what we needed in process. He looked across the entire organization, including our Organizational Chart and strategic plan to determine a best fit for us. Roland was clear to refine our needs and provide an exceptional candidate list. Ultimately, our selectee has taken our foundation to unprecedented levels. In short, I found working with Roland and Buffkin / Baker to be a superlative experience. I’ve gladly referred them many times since this assignment to peer organizations and won’t hesitate to utilize Buffkin / Baker again when I conduct my next executive search.

In working with Buffkin / Baker this year on behalf of SMITH and its Board of Directors, I have found the firm far superior to other search firms — in terms of the effectiveness of their process, their unique and comprehensive understanding of the interactive agency/consulting industry, the information they provide on the global candidates and companies they are recruiting from, their understanding of the skills required for the position and the quality of candidates they ultimately present. I’ve had the pleasure and privilege of working with Raj Das on a number of occasions, and now that he is practice lead at Buffkin / Baker, I am impressed by the collective “throw weight” that they bring to their assignments. Craig, Raj, and their entire team are respected by clients and candidates alike as true “trusted advisors.” I remain impressed by their persistence, follow-through, and ability to meet tight deadlines. In my capacities as investment banker, board member, interim CEO, and industry advisor, I continue to recommend Buffkin/Baker to other companies in the global technology-enabled business services industry to help develop their senior management teams and boards.”
