We were delighted not only by the outcome, but also received positive feedback from applicants about their experience as well. That extra touch sets DiverseForce apart and conveys our values to everyone engaged in the application process."
Kate Houstoun, Chief Impact Officer at United Way of Greater Philadelphia and Southern New Jersey
"Despite having worked with other recruiters in the past, our experience with the DiverseForce team was nothing short of exceptional... Their expertise in sourcing candidates with relevant experience, incorporating assessments, and meticulously filtering candidates based on both skills and cultural fit set them apart. The DiverseForce team's efficiency in guiding us through team interviews and the final selection process was particularly noteworthy... I highly recommend their services for anyone looking to hire talented and productive executives and development professionals for their team. DiverseForce has proven to be a valuable partner in our recruitment process."
Kim Folsom, Founder, Chairperson and CEO, Founders First Capital Partners
"We could not have found a better partner than DiverseForce to source extraordinary talent, and we could not have worked with better, more committed people than the DiverseForce team. We are very grateful."
Matt Bergheiser, President at University City District
"I am so impressed by your work-you guided us through this process thoroughly and thoughtfully. I am so glad that we selected you as a search firm-you run your organization with tremendous integrity."

"I can’t express how much this DiverseForce has changed me, personally and professionally. Diverseforce gives like-minded people of color a platform and the skills to make an impact in Philadelphia. I’ve learned so much from their programming and from my fellow cohort members. The networking opportunities are priceless, opening doors I never knew existed. The skills I’ve learned are impactful and transferable in both the private and public sector."
Danielle Branch, Associate Director, Patient Affairs at Fulcrum Therapeutics
"I have evaluated a lot of programs over the years and DiverseForce’s offers far more than standard skills-building. I am excited for this next evolution at P4 Hub, where DiverseForce can scale its impact to even more people and more organizations."
Dr. Claire Robertson-Kraft, Executive Director at ImpactED, University of Pennsylvania
"When I first joined City Year, one of my immediate goals was to diversify its board. I started inviting CYP board chairs to DiverseForce events where they learned the importance of an inclusive board and creating a welcoming environment for diverse candidates. DiverseForce will continue to help us build our network and give us access that we didn’t have before."
Darryl Bundridge, Executive Director of City Year Philadelphia
"Following my DiverseForce On Boards training, I was matched with a nonprofit board chaired by David Cohen, senior advisor at Comcast, who appointed me as a committee chair. Connections like these can break down dividing lines. Shortly after, I was named President and CEO of the African American Chamber of Commerce. You never know exactly what doors can open up when you sit within proximity to power."
Regina Hairston, President and CEO of the African American Chamber of Commerce
"It wasn't an easy decision as any of them could have been a great addition to our team. Thank you very much for the work you did to bring the slate of candidates to us and the support to help evaluate each of them. The process was very smooth, and we enjoyed working with you!"
Kevin Rossi, VP, Human Resources at Jewish Family and Children's Service of Greater Philadelphia

Brian Peterson, PhD, Director of University of Pennsylvania’s Maku Center; Author and University of Pennsylvania Lecturer

Melinda Johnson, Executive Director, Compass Pro Bono
