I would like to say a big thank you to Michael Bickle for helping me to find the right concept that works for me and my lifestyle.
After working for the same company for 36 years I had peace in my heart that this was the right move for me. I'm on my second week and so far so good. Also he was a huge help during the interview process and helped me via texts each step of the way. Thank you Michael for your help and dedication which led me to a great career opportunity.
Sincerely.

Michael was very attentive in expediting my hiring process.
He did a good job putting me in touch with the necessary people and being a bridge to make sure I had materials needed for my interviews. He would text me reminders of my interview times and offered his help constantly.

Michael worked hard for me.
Michael Bickle reached out to me and came across my resume on Indeed. He helped assist me with my new job and was very enthusiastic and worked hard for me. I can honestly say I would most likely still be on the job hunt if it were not for him. I can now say I'm a proud manager at a great company and I have Michael to thank for that.
Thank you,
