She was a great coach who helped me focus on my most relevant experience and answer potential questions. Her walkthrough gave me excellent insights and tips to improve my interviewing skills. She was a great help throughout the process, even after I accepted the position. I would highly recommend her. Thank you, Brendan
I had an excellent experience working with Margo Kornfeld.
I just would like to say that Margo Kornfeld was instrumental in landing my dream job. I did not know what to expect at all. My thoughts were that she is a regular recruiter trying to meet her quota. But was I wrong. She is not. As a matter of fact she will bat for you 300%. That is what she did for me. She gave me the scope regarding information for the interview and what they are looking for. She provided the confidence and belief that this opportunity is for me and how to wow them. And I did! If you are looking for that perfect opportunity, I would recommend Margo Kornfeld. She definitely has you covered. Reginald W. Zephyrin
I just want to say a huge “Thank You!!” to Margo Kornfeld for all she has done.
I had a wonderful experience working with Margo Kornfeld.
I had been at my previous employer for 10 years and was ready to make a change. I was really struggling with what my new role and career path should be, but after my initial conversation with Margo she knew exactly my path before I really saw it! Margo was great, she coached me through the entire process with check-in's along the way. She provided advice that was in my best interest, not necessarily the position she was looking to fill. However, she knew I was the right fit for the position and her encouragement went a long way. I'm glad she followed her gut and lead me to a great new career/role.Much Love,Kimberly Lockett
