We sat down with Jonathann and asked him the following:

• What do you like most about working at Kimmel & Associates?
  The great culture of the organization.
• What is one thing you learned early in your career that has made you successful?
  It’s more important to listen than it is to speak.
• What is your greatest strength in your role?
  The ability to gain the trust of the client and candidate.
• What can clients and candidates expect from you?
  Someone who’s going to work hard on their behalf and not try to push something on them that’s not a good fit.
• What makes you different from other recruiters in your industry?
  I spend time with the candidate, guiding them through the process.
• Describe the most rewarding moment of your career.
  Hearing a candidate say he’s worked with construction companies all over the world, and the one where I placed him has been the best fit after 35 years in the industry.
• Do you have a favorite book?
  Shoe Dog by Phil Knight. It shows how much risk you have to take in life to be successful.
• Personal interests?
  Tennessee Vols, New Orleans Saints, golf, bird hunting, Marco Island, and Postero (a restaurant in Hendersonville).
