Testimonials

Our client retention rate is our biggest measure of success — and hearing from the leaders we’ve placed and the operators we’ve served is a close second.

From Hiring Authorities

Operators, HR leaders, and marketing leaders who trust Spartan for behavioral health staffing.

We have been using Spartan since 2017 for our external staffing needs. Over the past 4 years, they have helped us hire some truly excellent people who are now instrumental to the success of our organization. Their knowledge of the addiction treatment space and ability to attract top-talent is second to none.

Here is the highest compliment I can give Spartan Strategics: Each time I’ve moved to another organization as the Director of Human Resources, I’ve reached out to Chris and Will for my staffing needs. They were incredibly productive when we first engaged more than 7 years ago and remain a key component of the recruitment process today. Their knowledge in the behavioral health space is top-notch, allowing them to find the best candidates for our most important roles.

From Candidates We’ve Placed

Leaders whose careers changed because we picked up the phone.

I wanted to reach out and thank you. 7 years ago, you found me on CareerBuilder while I was in Private Practice after having just moved to Atlanta. You were looking for a Clinical Director position with Sunrise Detox in Alpharetta, GA. I had not had this type of role before and had really only been in Private Practice with a few management roles in the non-profit sector until that point. You reached out to me and started a conversation that truly changed the trajectory of my life. If you had not found my resume and called me, I would not be where I am today. While I was with Sunrise only a few years, it helped me springboard into roles I didn’t even know I wanted or could be good at. Today, I have the job of my dreams, an incredible family, and financial stability that I could have never expected at that point in my life. Thank you for picking up the phone 7 years ago!

Chief Executive Officer, Stella Maris Cleveland

When I was ready to take the next step in my career, I turned to Will Rhody and his team at Spartan Strategics. I originally found them on LinkedIn and, during our first conversation, we immediately hit it off. They quickly helped guide me to an amazing opportunity at an organization with unlimited growth potential. In a three year period, I was promoted multiple times, moving from a Community Relations Representative into the Regional Coordinator role before ultimately landing the title of National Director of Business Development, overseeing multiple behavioral health facilities and regional directors of business development. Over the years, the people at Spartan always stayed in touch with me to check on my progress. Later down the road, I was able to use them to recruit individuals for my national sales team. I would highly recommend Spartan if you are an employer or a candidate looking for a new and exciting position in the healthcare field.
