„For me personally, the added value of cooperation with Consilium Consulting is in a common view and understanding of the bank´s strategy and critical needs for change, such as culture and leadership. In addition to consulting, our cooperation was also very intensive in the field of selection and implementation of AC and DC for B-1 positions as well as the development of board members. During the selection process candidates were always presented who not only fulfilled the requirements, but also brought something extra. Also, thanks to our cooperation, we managed to fill in the key positions and thus contribute to the overall results and success of the bank.

When introducing strategic changes, it is necessary to have a partner on your side who accompanies you in your role with his experience, professional approach a new perspective. And this partner Consilium Consulting really is.”

„Good afternoon to Consilium Consulting. Today I had the honor to attend a personal interview (not a job interview) in your company. Since I have recently attended several meetings, even in personal agencies, I have a rare chance to compare. Therefore, allow me this short feedback. I finally experienced professional personal interview with your colleague Adriana Skalková, who invited me to the meeting, even though she knew that as to my documentation I will probably not be a suitable candidate for the specific position. Adriana dynamically, efficiently and carefully led the entire personal interview. In her feedback I noticed that she correctly identified my profile. I wish you a lot of success! I support people and companies who do things with right commitment, motivation and professionalism! Thank you! P.S. Finally a small detail – already at the front desk they knew who I came to see, which also appeals very positive (at least to me…).”

Ing. Ondrej Tomčišák

„We have been cooperating with Consilium Consulting for almost 10 years in the area of headhunting, personnel consulting, outplacement programs, diagnostics and education. Their high level of professionalism, knowledge of the market, not only of the financial and banking sector, but also other sectors in Slovakia and abroad, is a mark of the highest quality. They have managed to find for us the key candidates for the local and sub-regional job positions and can exactly capture not just the profile but also the “cultural” fit into our company.”

Hana Várošiová
Head of HR, MetLife Slovakia

„I see Consilium Consulting and Vlado Koša as career guidance and development professionals. We’ve worked with them for over 10 years and the company has given me a high-quality outlook on the labor market. They’ve assisted me personally in my career shift, while I gained a knowledgeable and highly professional analysis of my potential and a development plan for myself as a person. I have worked almost 20 years in the financial sector and still need, and will need, an independent point of view from such a company on market trends and requirements, and where the market is heading. I’m standing pat with the company and looking forward to more years of cooperation.”

Vladimír Fábry
Sales Director and Board Member, Global Finance

„Mr. Koša from Consilium Consulting has perfect knowledge of the market, and in my more than 15 years in HR I consider him to be one of the best headhunters and career counselors I have ever met. In addition to expertise, he’s a person who holds on to moral values and principles, both in his personal and business life, and this matters to him more than profits. He and his company Consilium Consulting are always my number one choice.”

Soňa Machatová
HR Manager, Gana Trade

„I’m grateful to have had the opportunity to take advantage of the services at Consilium Consulting when I was having a personality crisis and thinking about quitting. Right from the start, the pleasant atmosphere and professionalism among the staff was welcoming. At several meetings, I completed different activities to help me discover my own potential, my strengths and weaknesses, and I again discovered inside of me the desire to work and develop.

After receiving career guidance, I had a clear idea of the direction I wanted to take in my career.

I’d highly recommend anyone who can’t decide how to go forward to use Consilium Consulting’s career guidance services.”

Monika Eckerová
Account Analyst, Swiss Re

„Regarding Consilium Consulting, I would rate them positively for their overview of Slovak financial institutions. Their many years in the market have allowed them to create a network of contacts among both employers and employees. In addition, they have very good knowledge about processes at financial institutions, which enables them to find the “perfect match” in filling positions.”

Dušan Pivka
Head of Investments, Kooperativa

„Over the many years of cooperation, Vlado Koša from Consilium Consulting has become my partner in discussions about the job market, where it was going, how skills sought by the market were changing and also what skills were no longer needed, and what it all means for Tatra Banka, for me as a human resources manager and me as Braňo Vargic. With his professional recruitment and executive search experience, he’s always given me a multidimensional and, in particular, different point of view on how the market sees me as a professional, as well as how I should look at certain things in regard to my further development from another perspective, and he has been discreet and kept our conversations confidential in my own reflections on “what next”.”

„It’s very rare for me to have been inspired by a contractor. However, Consilium Consulting has continually thrived and their customer orientation is quite truly world class. Their ability and patience to listen to clients and find out what they really need, their tireless efforts time and again to find solutions that meet the needs of their clients, their flexibility in designing solutions for their clients and last, but not least their will to go not just the extra mile, but two or three more, while not asking anything extra just because it would take more man-days. Really inspirational.”

Branislav Vargic
M&A Program Manager, Raiffeisenbank Czech Republic, President HRcomm and previously HR manager at Tatra Banka

„I’ve known Consilium Consulting ever since it was born. I’ve had experience as a client in banking and in pharmaceuticals, and also as a job candidate.

The company’s been around for ten years and even as the quality of the services and products it offers still remain high, it’s constantly working on developing itself. Its high added value is the professional, honest and ethical approach taken by the company’s managers, which gives clients 100% confidence. I have cooperated with dozens of companies in my position as HR manager, although only a few have ever shown continuously growing quality. Consilium Consulting is definitely one of them. They follow the latest executive search trends and in recent years psychodiagnostics, too. Its high quality staffing consultants are a guarantee of always successful projects.”

Soňa Machatová
HR Manager, Gana Trade, a.s.

„The biggest value added to the measurement in psychodiagnostics, which my colleagues and I completed, was an objective interpretation by Ms. Drevenáková of the outcomes and their links to a person’s concrete nature. When we initially read the output, there was a tendency by us not to trust it. After it was explained to us, the meaning became clear and we consider it the right path to self-development and for us working in it.”

Ľuboš Kováč
Regional Branch Network Director, Tatra Banka

„I want to thank Consilium Consulting for their professional service and for what they provided me to secure a new job in the spring of 2016.

I recommend him to anyone seeking a job in middle or senior management. I’d like to thank them one more time and look forward to working with them further.”

„Mr. Sirota at Consilium Consulting was filling a vacancy at an international bank some time ago when he approached me with an offer to become a candidate for the job. Although in the end the position was given to another candidate, the professional demeanor, expert advice and great experience Mr. Sirota provided in executive searching convinced me that employment agencies do have people who understand their job and thoroughly represent both sides – job providers and those interested in the positions.”
