Making the Match

Candidate Testimonial

I am so appreciate the time and effort you put into helping me transition from academia into the world of secondary education, presenting a variety of exciting options, and connecting me with this school. I am grateful to have the opportunity to share my passion for history with a student body drawn from throughout the world. Outside the classroom, my wife and I will be embarking on the adventure of serving as dorm parents. We never thought we’d end up here, but now, thanks to you and your colleagues at Carney Sandoe, we will be having the experience of a lifetime.

School Testimonial

From the beginning, Jessica has been an incredible partner to us at New York Military Academy. Whenever we’ve had a hiccup, she jumped right in—solving issues quickly, following up persistently, and ensuring nothing slipped through the cracks. Her professionalism and dedication have truly left a lasting impression on me.

But what has stood out the most is Jessica’s warmth and thoughtfulness. Recently, I shared with her that I’m in my first headship and still relatively new in this role. Her response was not only understanding but also deeply encouraging. She made me feel supported, and went a step further to connect me with others in the field—something I didn’t expect, but genuinely appreciated.

Jessica has been more than a representative—she’s been a guide, a connector, and simply a good person. We’ve worked with other agencies in the past, but our experience with CS&A has been different in the best way, and I believe it’s because of people like her.

Thank you again. CS&A, and your work in particular, made all the difference for me during this hiring cycle. Nearly every strong lead that I received came from your referral system, including the one that finally landed. I am truly grateful, as this proved to be the resource I needed more than anything else during my search. Thank you so much for standing in my corner!

The Board and I are very pleased with our collaboration with Carney Sandoe and Dr. Art Charles in the search for a new Head of School for KAS. Their strong reputation and extensive network helped attract many excellent candidates in a relatively short period of time. Dr. Charles, an experienced consultant and former Head of School at several international institutions, guided us through the entire process smoothly and efficiently. With his deep understanding of school leadership and his experience supporting more than 175 schools in head searches, we felt confident and well supported throughout. We are truly grateful to have had Dr. Art Charles accompany us on this important journey.

Marsha and Heather were instrumental in helping me find my current leadership role, listening carefully to my questions, providing clear information, and preparing me for each step of the process. As I advanced in my search, they never buried the lead and were candid with feedback, helped me understand both where I stood and what the school was looking for, and made sure I knew what to expect down to the last detail. In addition, they helped me hone my “story” in a way that would be compelling and consistent while remaining true to who I was as an educator and leader. I am endlessly grateful for their support and encouragement!
