Hiring Managers
"I have used The Rockland Group for years, and Dan Murray is one of a select few recruiters I recommend when it comes to building a world class team. Dan is extremely responsive and has shown a consistent ability to recruit "A" players for sales, technical, and marketing positions. The candidates recruited by The Rockland Group have been a key ingredient for closing strategic sales opportunities with Tier 1 mobile operators globally. I plan to continue to work with Dan for years to come."
Greg Alden
VP of Worldwide Sales and Support
Movik Networks
"The Rockland Group's professional, honest and direct approach is very refreshing and ultimately delivers outstanding candidates. With their database of strong candidates and ability to effectively network within the industry, we can always count on them to introduce us to top performers."
Al Monserrat
Senior Vice President, Sales and Service
Citrix Systems
"I have known Dan the past 15 years as a colleague and in his current role as an executive recruiter. Dan’s passion and responsiveness are what most people notice first. However, it quickly becomes evident that Dan’s character and ethics are his strongest qualities. In my most recent search, the candidate unfortunately didn't succeed as planned. Without me asking, Dan offered to find a replacement candidate at no cost 7 months later. Without hesitation, Dan not only stood by his word--but replaced an under-performing sales executive with a VP of Operations. It is without hesitation that I recommend Dan Murray and The Rockland Group. "
Rich LaPerch
CEO
Aegis Mobile
"I've worked with Dan for years and have found him to be professional, enthusiastic, and dedicated. Dan continues to provide "A" players for any and all opportunities I've presented him. Dan also stands behind his work and is willing to put guarantees in place that others in the business will not. It's always a pleasure to speak with him because I know he is nothing but honest. I appreciate the uniqueness he brings to the table."
Bob Stevens
Director of Federal Sales, Symantec
formerly VP of Federal Sales, Juniper Networks
"I've engaged The Rockland Group for numerous projects over the years and consider them a highly trusted advisor for talent acquisition. The difference between Rockland and other search firms is simple yet compelling. Dan Murray understands his clients, takes time to listen to their needs, and always works hard to find the right candidates. When working with Rockland, you feel like you've inherited a team you can trust, someone who always looks out for your best interests, and cares about the results of the search, long after the search is complete. Dan Murray and The Rockland Group get my highest personal recommendation."

"We expect excellence in all that we do. That includes building our teams with not only the best but the right individuals. Dan's collaborative style, coupled with his market knowledge and extensive relationships, is a perfect fit for our organization. If Dan doesn't have the right candidate he will tell you. He will also work aggressively to find one. We value performance and Dan has delivered in a way that makes it easy to do business.

"The Rockland Group has helped me fill several key positions over the last five-years. Dan and his team understand my needs, find appropriate candidates and facilitate the process from introduction to hire. Dan rarely misses with his candidates and most importantly, he doesn't waste time. When I have key positions to fill, The Rockland Group is my first call."
Larry Langston
Founder & CEO

"I have worked with several search executives in recent years and Dan is the only one who I really felt was on my side working with me to help me get the right person, not just the first available candidate. Dan always makes me feel I am his number one client, is always available, and stayed with a search that took many twists and turns before we got the right person."

Kelly Green

"Dan hires people as if he were hiring for himself. There is a lot to be said for that. The Rockland Group will not represent an opportunity they don't believe in and will not present you an opportunity that does not fit your mold. Dan has done me well."
Joe Hlavin
Account Director
Starent Networks
"In my twenty-plus years in the IT industry, Dan is the first recruiter who took the time to actually get to know me – my personal and professional history as well as my future career aspirations. As a result, he placed me in my current position, one I may never have considered, were it not for his recommendation. I am happier professionally than I've ever been. "
Adele Hamel
former #1 salesperson worldwide
Extreme Networks
"We worked extremely well together. When Dan put the opportunity in front of me, it was real. There was no guesswork, and he provided many details consistent with what I was told by the hiring manager. It was obvious Dan had good rapport with the client, which helped present an accurate picture of the opportunity and in turn streamlined the process."
