Six Degrees Research represents forty+ collective years of experience in connecting outstanding professionals with firms that understand and appreciate their value.

Our founders formerly occupied corner offices in the bluest of blue-chip recruiting, public accounting and Fortune 500 firms. But blue-chip firms are often the last to see the light. Our principals saw it early and clearly. Six Degrees Research and its leading edge methodology are the result.

Our specialization and public accounting  leadership relationships developed over many years offers a better way to serve exceptional individuals.

With our longstanding relationships, our experience, and our recognition that the old ways are long gone, we are ideally positioned to be change leaders — in our industry and in the careers of the professionals we identify for our clients.

Our job is simple: we identify exceptional candidates who are qualified for exceptional positions.

We know the positions that our prestigious public accounting firms retain us to help fill. We know the experience, skills, and personal chemistry they require. We know the career pathways they offer. And we are confident that the professionals like you that we approach will find it rewarding to complete the connection we offer.

Our research team knows the markets and the key players. They are attuned in every possible way, from social networks and a myriad of digital resources to old-fashioned word-of-mouth, peer-about-peer referrals.

When we approach a professional like you, it’s because we know we represent lucrative, career-enhancing opportunities. And because these are ‘live’ opportunities, when you respond with interest, you’ll be contacted within hours, even minutes, (on your terms, of course) by a senior level person from our client company. You’ll get all the details and have all questions answered.

We are retained on a fee basis by the public accounting firms we serve. Our clients pay us to find the limited number of ‘you’s’ in your industry. Once we’ve found you, our job is simply to tell you about opportunity. We don’t sell you — we inform you. If you’re interested, we connect you. The hiring firm takes over from there.

This profoundly shapes our practice—and our candidates’ experiences. We are unbiased in our recommendations. If we say there is an outstanding opportunity for you — there is an outstanding opportunity for you. Our relationship with our clients and the professionals we contact depends on that. And our obligation ends with that.

We look forward to hearing from you, in confidence, about any topic you have found of interest. We hope we can be of service.
