Lauren Nesslar


Executive Recruiter

I am a well connected Executive Recruiter with a focus on connecting talent with open positions in the Chicago market and have placed Vice Presidents and Senior Directors, managers, and the two to five year professionals.

In addition to keeping you on my radar for situations that are in your area of expertise, I provide many other value-added services to my candidates such as resume feedback, interview strategy and coaching, hiring company information, and am an excellent sounding board for ideas and strategy.

I am successful at what I do and can help you position yourself to reach your goals too!

Our strong network of top tier companies and active client relationships have been established over time with many of the largest, best known, international corporations in the Chicago market. Although searches available change continuously, I typically have multiple opportunities available for staff, mid-management, and senior level professional individuals in accounting, finance, and audit, HR, sales/marketing, engineering, and IT.

Our reputation is based on a quality model. Clients depend on us to know their organization, the hiring need, and present the company and the role in such a way that the candidate is ready and excited about the opportunity to meet with them upon selection. Only candidates that fit the position are presented, and our clients will often review our resumes over other search sources as a result.

Candidates are thoroughly screened and qualified for the targeted opening of interest. We explore components of experience and help our candidates customize resumes that clearly articulate experience and education relative to the job. Candidates can expect excellent guidance throughout the process from beginning to end. Each candidate is thoroughly prepared for their interview with information that will enhance their interview performance and increase their chances of reaching offer stage.  Offer negotiations are conducted and managed for you as well.

Both clients and candidates can depend on me to be professional and confidential and work hard.  I am committed to a win-win talent acquisition process for both sides. I would like to learn more about your career goals and background.

Note to candidates:
If you are thinking of engaging the market now or in the future, send an email that includes your resume in Word format  to lnesslar@htassociates.com and let’s chat.  I look forward to working with you.

Note to clients: 

If you would like to work with a quality search provider and have either contract or full-time openings in any of your departments approved for search, please give me a call at 847-577-0300 or send me an email for more information. Instead of volumes of resumes, you will receive quality paperwork specifically targeted to your needs, a 60-day guarantee from date of hire, and competitive placement fees.
