                 Research Case Study 1: The client, a $35B manufacturer of internetworking products, was looking for a Regional Director of sales for its St. Louis regional office. The position had been open for 2 months without any luck in hiring. The company came to The Winthrop Research Group to research and source out a listing of names in the geographical area that surrounds St. Louis, Mo. Within two weeks of receiving the list of names, the field recruiter recruited one of the names and hired him. Research Case Study 2: The client, a $1.5B ASIC designer and manufacturer, needed a listing of Test Development Engineers for its Oregon development center. It was a start-up situation and the hiring was aggressive. The Winthrop Research Group developed a listing of Test Development and Product Engineers in the Northwest geographical area, as well as other pockets of the United States that might have a better chance of a candidate relocating. Within four months of receiving this research list the client hired four Test Development Engineers. Research Study 3: The client, a $35B manufacturer of internetworking products, needed research on their top competitors' domestic sales organization. The Winthrop Research Group developed a report that included locations of offices, contact information, names of sales executives, names of systems engineers, and breakdown of management structures. The client's executives used this information to strategically plan its marketing, and the staffing organization also used the information to recruit. Over a two year period the client saved over $500K in headhunter fees. Research Study 4: The client, a $17B Documentation company, requested a feasibility study on available consulting and professionals that it could call upon in a short period of time to facilitate development of their new products.
