Bio
Don Beery
Brooke is intelligent and knowledgeable as to what current-day recruiters are looking for and helped me navigate the automated systems and processes that one's application can get lost in. As a writer, editor and proof reader, Brooke is excellent. Although I am a seasoned business executive, Brooke provided valuable information and feedback in my Executive Level search. I highly recommend Brooke for people that want a responsive, professional to assist them with resumes, cover letters and interview coaching in their own opportunity search.

Brooke rocks. Plain and simple. Hard working, friendly, upbeat, and willing to connect candidates with other recruiters if she finds a great candidate that she can't otherwise place. She has more contacts in the IT world than a lot of business developers and salespeople I know. A hard-working go-getter whom I would hire if I had the need for a recruiter/HR expert.
