Larissa was personable and just an overall amazing person to work with. She was very knowledgeable about the employer and coached me through every step of the hiring process. I would encourage anyone to work with her.

Molly and Madison were excellent in keeping me in the loop with the process of selection, and that was not always my experience with other placement agents/agencies. They went over and above my expectations. You guys are awesome!!!
Sales Client Relations
Timothy B
I felt that my recruiter added a personal touch to the process. Prompt return calls, always there to answer questions, and getting me the optimum offer and package. She really represented me well and promoted my strengths to the client. I can honestly say that I would feel the same even if I didn’t land the position.
