Cook’s Clients Among Fortune Magazine’s World’s Most Admired

Chicago, IL, March 2010 -Cook Associates Executive Search, Inc. is proud to see its clients among the World's Top 50 Most Admired Companies for 2009 listed recently by Fortune Magazine.

These companies, while not immune to the global economic unease and challenges of 2009, continued to inspire teams and lead their companies forward.

The world's most admired companies benefit from their market position and brand recognition when hiring at the senior and upper middle management levels.

"These are all extremely well-run companies and people want to join winning teams. Whether our client company is on Fortune's list or not, we employ rigorous, cultural-fit and competencies assessments before placing any new executive onto a client business unit or department team," states John Kins, CEO of Cook Associates. "These companies go to the outside only a few times a year and each occasion must be an outstanding fit for both employer and the newly hired executive," says Mr. Kins.

Within Fortune's Top 50, Cook has recruited for companies ranked in the top five among industry sectors including; Technology, Computers & Peripherals, Consumer Goods and Consumer Credit, General Merchandisers/Retail, Health Care Wholesalers, and Pharmaceutical.

Among the Cook clients included in Fortune's Top 50 Most Admired Companies are Apple, American Express, Johnson & Johnson and others.
