Today’s electronic communication has changed our industry forever.  It helps put us in touch with you and you in touch with us, however FIRST PLACE SEARCH GROUP cannot emphasize enough the importance of personal communication.   Locating top talent for your jobs can be a time consuming and expensive task.   Frequently key executive and technical people are not searching newspaper ad or “surfing the net” for opportunities.  FIRST PLACE SEARCH GROUP, through extensive research, experience and contacts has established valued market contacts to complete each job opening confidentially, professionally and quickly.  We strive to provide the best person available, not necessarily the best person visible.

As we continue the tradition of reliability, integrity, and professionalism into this new millennium, we invite you to call 417/742-4420 or e-mail cpcalicep@aol.com
