My recruiter, Corina Mack, stayed by my side throughout the entire process. She has excellent communication skills. She definitely felt like a more of a friend than a recruiter. She was always accessible via email or phone. It was important to me that she listened to my ideas and what I needed from a job, and she nailed it! She was more persistent than I was and always kept a positive outlook. She coached me through everything and made the process very simple. Due to her skills, I was able to land the position and the salary that I was looking for.
Thank you,
