Testimonials

"Dave helped us succeed in attracting and hiring a college intern for our bank. We asked for his help when our initial posting on the college internship website did not bring us a candidate that fit what we were looking for. He consulted with our hiring manager, revamped our job description and made some calls to ensure that the opportunity received the maximum visibility at several local universities. He was professional and thorough throughout his time helping us, and I would recommend him as a consultant to other businesses."

"Here at the West Ohio Conference of the United Methodist Church, Dave has been of great assistance thus far with respect to our Next Generations Leadership initiative. We had an existing internship program that we were looking to take to the next level. As a quick hit, we identified an opportunity to formalize the process of gathering feedback and evaluating performance of our summer interns. Additionally, we took advantage of the opportunity to gather feedback from the interns on the quality of their experience. Dave delivered a comprehensive solution that was easy to use and value-added with respect to the inputs we received, thus allowing us to make meaningful and objective decisions related to pursuing the next stages of the employment process or considering a candidate for a second summer internship. We look forward to the opportunity to leverage Dave's services in the future as we continue to enhance our Next Generations Leadership programming."

“We are only at the beginning of our partnership with Dave Cofer and Cofer Consulting Solutions, LLC and already we are experiencing value-added outcomes. The Columbus Chamber selected Cofer Consulting Solutions because of Dave Cofer’s experience and expertise with internships and Millennial talent overall. Our goal is to grow the number of new internships in the Columbus region as a means of affecting economic development and attracting and retaining young professionals in the region. While we have made available many resources to local employers, we realized that employer outreach in the form of consultative services would be the difference maker in getting new users to embrace Millennial talent within their organization. We very much expect that Dave Cofer will be that difference maker.”

"Dave Cofer is diligent and tenacious in his efforts to create a good match between the intern and the placement site. He delves into great detail about the company's plans and initiatives and works in the trenches to assess the skills, interests and backgrounds of the candidates. He is truly an asset to the small business owner or for that matter any business that wants to leverage the skills of a talent base at minimal cost."
