"Navigating the executive search process is difficult. TurningPoint provides the direction."
Ken Schmitt
Founder, TurningPoint
The genesis of TurningPoint dates back to 1998 when our founder, a San Diego native, developed a philosophy that supports both clients and candidates. TurningPoint has quickly evolved into a comprehensive firm dedicated to effective human capital management. After witnessing first-hand, the city’s transformation from a largely defense-based economy to a leading-edge biotech, wireless and technology hub, TurningPoint was founded with one goal in mind –
To build Southern California’s premier resource for mid and senior level professionals by offering unique career opportunities, providing personalized coaching and driving corporate success.
