Bio
Sebastian Gromann
It's my absolute pleasure to recommend Jack as a Recruiter. Jack has been my constant contact person for over a year during my hiring process and subsequent emigration from Germany to the United States. His understanding of the O-1 visa process and his zest for actions have been crucial for my successful transition. Without a doubt, I can say that working with someone as reliable and caring as Jack has made my visa-process incredible smooth and definitely the most pleasant hiring experience of my life!
Michael Barclay
Jack was my key coordinator with Naughty Dog when I applied to work there. His knowledge of the visa process was integral to my successful application and emigration to america from the U.K. I had only heard how difficult the application process to move to america could be before I applied but I honestly cannot say it was, which I attribute entirely to the work Jack put in on my behalf. He made my transition easy and was always on hand to answer questions and keep me up to speed. This was particularly impressive based purely on the time zone difference, making windows for discussion each day quite narrow. Despite this, I always felt like I could reach out to Jack and get an answer the same day. I am now working for Naughty Dog since successfully receiving my working visa!
