"Clark Executive Search became an integral part of our growth by helping us recruit a number of key contributors to our R&D. They maintained excellent communication throughout the search process to help us understand the market for candidates and which candidates were best suited for us. Ellen Clark was well aware of the issues in recruiting to a small biotech company and did an excellent job closing on the candidates we wanted."

"Ellen Clark is a knowledgeable and caring recruiter who placed me at CHDI Management four years ago. At that time, CHDI was in its infancy as an organization, and Ellen had to quickly learn about the specifics of the biotech company, their unique needs as a virtual company, and to also find the right match. When she contacted me about the position, she not only had a deep grasp of what the position entailed, but also what it would take to be successful in it. She was looking for the right person for the job. It is apparent to me now that a long lasting placement is her true ambition and she acted as a true advocate throughout the entire hiring process and when it came time to for me to make the decision to join CHDI, I knew it was the right decision. I recommend Ellen without reservation."
- Douglas Macdonald, Ph.D., Director Drug Discovery
CHDI Management, Inc.
 "I have known Ellen for many years, and have worked with her on many occasions. Not only is Ellen resourceful and well connected in the industry, she genuinely cares about her clients. I get constant updates and follow-ups from Ellen even when there is no major development. I always felt that our collaboration received her undivided attention even though she has other obligations. In the competitive climate of this industry, Ellen's work ethics, passion, and experience set her apart from all her competitors."
- David Tung, PhD, Senior Principal Scientist

 "I have had the pleasure of knowing Ellen for the last eight years, since she placed me as a Scientist in Xencor Inc. Ellen's exceptional interpersonal skills and talent in exercising seemingly intuitive judgment on career fits have been instrumental in recruiting and placing numerous former colleagues for career opportunities in biotech and pharma sectors. Ellen is a very capable, energetic and steadfast recruiter, sensitive to the needs of both the recruit and the recruiting company. She invests both time and interest in becoming extensively knowledgeable of both parties to ensure the best fit for the opportunity. Her pleasant and personable nature makes her a delight to work with and befriend - I recommend her for biotech and pharmaceutical recruiting efforts without reservations."
- Omid Vafa, PhD Principal Research Scientist/Group Leader, Antibody Drug Discovery
Centocor, Inc.
 "When our company first started Ellen did a number of very important searches for us. I found her open, resourceful, and determined to generate a number of qualified candidates for each of the searches she took on for us. But more importantly I found Ellen easy to work with and appreciated that she was adaptable to our requests of how she best could fit into our recruiting processes rather than force hers on us. You should feel comfortable in your decision to have Ellen take on searches that are critical for your company."
