Jorge Davalos, Managing Partner

"It's a great honor to be ranked on the Forbes list when you consider we are an independent boutique executive search firm," said Jorge Davalos, Alder Koten's managing partner in Houston." Alder Koten is not a network or a franchise. Our team performs as a single global organization and our privately held partnership owns all offices, intellectual property and legal entities."

The firm’s headquarters are located in Houston and it has offices in Guadalajara, Monterrey, and Mexico City with partner firms in New York, Boston, Chicago, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, Denmark, Finland, France, Hong Kong, Italy, Germany, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Russia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, and United Kingdom.

Forbes partnered with an analytics firm Statista to compile two lists of America’s best recruiting firms. The list ranks executive search firms, defined as companies that place executives in positions with at least $100,000 in annual pay.

To identify the top executive search firms, Statista consulted with industry associations, trade organizations, and directories to identify 4,000 recruiters in each of the two categories. Then it invited thousands of recruiters, professionals who had worked with recruiters over the past three years, and HR managers to take an online survey. The survey asked them to recommend up to 10 recruiting firms (excluding their own), and it gathered 20,000 recommendations. The companies with the most recommendations ranked highest.
