Virginia Mulvey, CPA
Catherine was an absolute pleasure to work with. She provided me with an amazing opportunity and placed me at EssilorLuxottica. This position aligns perfectly with what I want to do with my accounting career. She really listens to what a candidate is looking for. Additionally, she provided me with insight and detail about the open position. From there, she helped me prepare for my interviews. She was incredibly knowledgeable about EssilorLuxottica.

Brian Schwartz, CPA
I had a wonderful experience working with Catherine when I was ready to leave my previous role and begin searching for a new opportunity. Catherine did an excellent job of listening to what I wanted in a new position, and only sent me roles that matched the criteria I had expressed interest in. She was very accessible during the whole job search and interview process - there was never a time where I was not able to reach her and she worked to accommodate my schedule, which I really appreciated. She made the whole process much easier by providing me with tips and background knowledge to make sure the interviews were a success, and by quickly providing me with feedback and updates after. I really enjoyed my experience working with her, and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a new role!
