Professional, made it very easy!
Great experience from start to finish. Actually placed me in my current role (which I am shortly leaving) almost 10 years ago! Firm was a great fit and felt supported through the whole process which involved a relocation. Charlotte couldn’t have done more for me and has always kept in touch!
