“I love to create a fit that is a ‘win-win’ relationship between a professional and a company! It starts with establishing a relationship with a candidate especially when they are not actively seeking their next ‘stepping stone’ so I can understand their goals, rationale, and appropriate personal factors; then staying in touch.
“It is gratifying when I call someone a few months after they joined a company through me placing them and hear that it has been a good move professionally and personally, and that the company also sees it as a good long-term fit. How may I help you build your career or help you find the best talent for your organization?”
