As a graduate of SUNY Buffalo I was headed towards a career in education when a teaching position I’d been promised fell through at the end of the summer. Without another teaching position available and wanting to go to work, I accepted a job as a salesmen with a manufacturing company my father was a partner in. I enjoyed sales, but not my dad’s partners.
In the 20 years I have known Jack Young, he has not only placed me with a top flight dealer group but also found me numerous exceptional candidates for positions I was looking to fill. I have referred countless people to him over the years and will continue to do so.

I interviewed for several positions and in 1982 I accepted a district sales manager position with Sun Electric Corporation. Sun was at that time the premier manufacturer of automotive testing and diagnostic equipment. For two years running I was the number one sales producer for the company. Sun offered a matured sales training program that put me in a very entrepreneurial mindset.
Jack Young Personnel Services, Inc. is an evolution that began as the combined brainchild of mine and Howard Kesten (current President\Owner APA Search, Inc.) We began the enterprise in 1987 and I have directed Jack Young Personnel officially as an independent business since 1990.
“I have consulted Jack Young in the past with regard to placement of needed automotive personnel at the executive level for clients of ours. Jack has always handled search and placements for us in a thoughtful and professional manner, and we have never been disappointed in his efforts. Jack knows the automobile business well and has always done a good for us at accessing talent with appropriate skill sets, consistent with the needs of our clients.

I am personally involved in each and every search assignment that my firm manages. It is with the utmost respect and care that I initiate the introductions of client to candidate. Knowing that bringing a new manager to a client company and having a talented automotive professional move from one career position to a new opportunity is a life changing event. The satisfaction that I feel when I speak to a manager I’ve placed who is now a hiring authority at the company I placed him\her at is truly indescribable. That is the strongest measure for my success in this business.
"I have utilized Jack's services for several of our dealerships for over 20 years, and he has consistently brought our group top flight management talent..."
