As long as you follow the method and the process and the systems that they recommend, every time we’ve done it we’ve ended up with a great candidate.”  

Bobby Michael - CEO

All In Federal Credit Union ($1.4B)

“There were two things that I think about with D. Hilton. They really took the time to get to know the organization so they could find the right fit for the person for the organization by really focusing on the culture side of things. Then being a candidate on the other side, they were very respectful of my time, they kept me informed through the whole process. It felt like a small family business that really cares about the person and the organization.”  

Rob Werner - CEO

Ardent Credit Union ($630M)

“They’re really a full service provider of services to the credit union industry. We’re in an industry of constant change and we’ve really had to transform our credit union over the last several years in order to not only keep up and adapt with that change, but take advantage of opportunities that  change presents. D. Hilton has been a great partner for us through that process, providing services to really take advantage of these opportunities.”  

Bill Crane - Chief Administration Officer/General Counsel

CFCU Community Credit Union ($1B)

“The spirit of the team is fantastic, but the breadth of knowledge and expertise that they bring to the projects that they work on with us has been phenomenal. They take the time to explain to us all the parameters, all the details and what they’re using for compensation comparisons for example. So it helps to educate us and the board as whole on what we’re doing, why we’re doing it, and why we're heading in certain directions. ”  

Joan Nelson - Chairperson

Coastal Federal Credit Union ($2.7B)

“I think the thing is their dedication to credit unions. I think that they have been so flexible in working with many organizations, I work with them with a sub board that I also belong to with a CUSO and the result is they just get the job done and they’re there when you need them.”
