Dechert Advises SHOOK Research in Strategic Investment by PPC Enterprises
Dechert represented SHOOK Research in its strategic investment from PPC Enterprises.
Joseph had reached out to me regarding an opportunity he thought would be a great fit for my experience and an even better jump for my next career move. This was a position I would have otherwise never considered applying for. Not only did he help me along through the interview process, but he also always made a point to keep me apprised of all updates. He truly was a beacon of hope in the recruiting world and helped push me to see my future potential. Even after my start at this new position, Joe continued to follow up with me to check on my training and onboarding. Joseph continues to remind me of all the good recruiters can be out there. He does not just see me as a body to fill the position, but he treats me as a human with
goals and aspirations. It was not just about a commission to Joseph. It was about helping me find my happiness again and helping the firm find the leader they need to move back towards continued success. I know I have said it plenty, but I will always be thankful for Joseph reaching out to me when he did. He understands the roles he needs to fill, but also understands the kind of team player he needs in that role. It is not just about the tools one has, to Joseph, it is about the ability to use the tools they currently have in their kit.

Joseph Mayer was an amazing recruiter who assisted me in obtaining a permanent position in the same healthcare field that I enjoyed working in. He was on the lookout for opportunities that fit my skill set and had open communication that always kept me informed on how my job search was going. I highly recommend him as a recruiter for your job search needs. Thank you, Joe, for going above and beyond to help me find my new position!!

Permanent Placements LLC, Joe Mayer, was a great experience! Joe listened, really listened, to what our company was looking for in the “perfect” candidate. Joe sent candidates who were all qualified and a cultural fit for the position, it was difficult deciding because they were all so great. Again, thank you for listening to what our needs were and helping us fill more than one position. I look forward to working with you in the future!

Joe is the best there is. His knowledge of the field is matched only by his responsiveness and desire to find the exact right fit for his clients. When I first contacted him, I was at sea, confused about how to take the next step in my career. Joe not only facilitated my career shift, but also walked me through the entire process, providing sound advice with the comfort and ease of a seasoned professional. I’m not making another move without consulting Joe first.

I first met Jillian while interviewing for a summer associate position when I was in law school. She quickly became my go-to sounding board for career moves and was perhaps the only recruiter I’ve met who made me feel like my career truly matters to her because, when all the other recruiters stopped replying, she stuck with me all along. Earlier this year, she sent me an email with the subject line “saw this and thought of you”. She was not contracted with the particular law firm, so she encouraged me to reach out directly and coached me throughout the entire interview process. She didn’t benefit from it at all, except to encourage and support someone that she believed in. And that made all the difference. It’s not an overstatement to say that I would probably not be at my current firm if it wasn’t for her.

Joe has been amazing through the entire job search process. He has a very good eye when it comes to perfectly matching candidates and new job opportunities. He walked me through the entire process and made it as seamless as possible. He is always a text or call away if anything comes up or you just need some reassurance. If you are looking for a recruiter to help you find your next chapter, contact Joe! He is brilliant at what he does. You will be in great hands with him!!

In the many years that I was a prospective student, graduate, and now business professional I cannot say that I have ever been more thankful for the words of advice that I received while connecting with Joseph. After having the wonderful opportunity of chatting, not only did he provide me with excellent career advice but reassurance on what the future may entail as well. I cannot say that I have ever felt more confident in my future and true calling in life until having this conversation. Joseph is a well-rounded knowledgeable individual who evidently cares about the individuals he works with and goes above and beyond to ensure that he is doing what he can to ensure proper placements and candidates he may see as a good fit for positions. And if he doesn’t, not to worry – he will provide his advice and other alternatives to help you become the best version of yourself that you can be. Will definitely be reaching out again when the search for a new challenge or opportunity approaches.

Working with Michael Knutson has been an absolute game-changer in my professional journey. His depth of knowledge in recruiting is matched only by his genuine dedication to supporting candidates through every step of the process. Michael doesn’t just fill roles—he builds relationships. He took the time to understand my goals, strengths, and values, and then connected me with opportunities that truly aligned. His insights into the industry, clear communication, and strategic guidance made the entire experience seamless and empowering. If you’re looking for a recruiter who’s not only incredibly skilled but also deeply invested in your success, Michael is the one. I’m grateful for his support and highly recommend him to anyone navigating the next step in their career.

Joe is the best recruiter I have worked with, as he has done an outstanding job for me over several years! You cannot go wrong hiring Joe.
Jeffrey S.
Partner
To anyone looking for your next opportunity I HIGHLY suggest working with Joe. We worked together for only a few weeks but when I say he was my biggest cheerleader I mean it. Even when I didn’t think it would work the way it did, he still spoke as though it was already a done deal! I have NEVER had a recruiter produce the results that Joe did. I will most definitely be passing his information along to all of my associates looking for new opportunities.
