“MTV Networks GmbH & Co. KG, Germany, worked closely and successfully with the firm of Associates International. We entrusted Julian McKitrick with the task of recruiting sales staff, which involved not only external sales executives, but also personnel in the area of Sales Controlling, Traffic and Administration. Julian McKitrick and his associates worked rapidly and efficiently in finding us first class, highly professional employees, who fitted into our existing sales team perfectly. Due to the very good experience we have had with them, we are happy to recommend the services of Associates International.”
Jörg Köppen, Management Board, Sales & Online, MTV Germany

“In 2006 Discovery Networks entrusted Julian McKitrick and Associates International with the recruitment of the entire marketing organisation of our new free-to-air TV station DMAX. Associates succeeded in finding an excellent team of top managers for the station. Furthermore they were successful, in a highly competitive marketplace, in finding us a department of highly-motivated sales and marketing professionals. Julian McKitrick and his associates were instrumental in ensuring the great success of DMAX, Discovery Networks’ worldwide first free-to-air TV station. Our collaboration was faultless, was extremely productive and was enjoyable too! Therefore I do not hesitate in recommending Julian and his associates as executive search consultants for the recruitment of managers in the media business.”
Magnus Kastner, Managing Director, Discovery Networks Germany

“We have worked with Julian McKtrick and Associates International on the launching of a new weekly investors’ magazine “Die Telebörse”. Through this professional collaboration we were able, in a very short time and in a very competitive market place, to recruit an editorial team of superb economic journalists. This team is the reason for the enormous success of “Die Telebörse” magazine.”
Martin Kewitsch, Head of Personnel, Verlagsgruppe Handelsblatt

“Associates International carried out a search for a group of specialised journalists for us in Germany and helped us build a first-class team which matched our requirements with remarkable precision. The service was excellent in every regard. Targeting of potential candidates was carried out with a deep understanding of our search criteria. As a result, no interview time was wasted and we saw only people who matched up to the definition of each of the different roles. Julian spared no energy in tracking down talent and the main part of the recruitment process – particularly for the top jobs – was completed with considerable speed. In many years of experience of media recruitment, I have never dealt with a headhunting firm which has delivered so efficiently.”
Mark Wood, Managing Director, Reuters Content Partners

“For seven months we used the services of another renowned executive search firm, but without success. Julian McKitrick and Associates were, however, able to find us an excellent and highly experienced Director of Sales for our German operation. I have no hesitation in recommending Associates International.”
Toni McHugh Vice President, European Director Global Advertising Sales, CNBC

“Julian McKitrick and his team were the only ones able to find me a top producer for a series of high-quality commercials which we produced in early 1999.”
Peter Stephenson, Managing Director, Renaissance Films GmbH

“In the media business it is extremely difficult and time-consuming to find skilled and competent staff. Thanks to Associates, we were able to find two extremely well-qualified colleagues in a very short space of time. Our new Client Services Manager  and new Web Designer are extremely good and complement our existing team perfectly.  In particular I should like to thank Julian McKitrick personally for the friendly and professional assistance he has given us.”
