It was great to work with Blair on my job-search. She’s insightful and understood the moment of my career. She’s organized and persistent with follow ups, in a way that kept me always informed about the process. Thanks Blair

Over the past couple of years I have had the pleasure of working with and on many occasions reporting into Blair as a senior member of management at TXT. Blair is an outstanding recruitment professional and excellent mentor. Organized, attentive to detail and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure I succeed. I would highly recommend Blair to any organization that is seeking top talent in the market!
