James is fearless in tackling new opportunities and all the inherent challenges associated with them. He always puts in 100% effort at the office and is a quick learner who can be taught and needs minimal supervision once given direction. I would re-hire James again if the opportunity presented itself, and recommend him highly.

      I worked in the organization of identifying professionals who excel and rank in the top 20%tile of their professions. I would be hired by a select group of companies to help fulfill their staffing requirements.I am able to determine who stands out amongst the others by doing thorough interviews and finding our clients those so called "Purple Squirrels". My job did not only entail recruiting but extensive headhunting, business development and account management.Essentially, I make my clients life a lot easier, and allow them to do the work they were originally hired to do, and let me do the job that I was hired to do - Help fulfill their staffing requirements.
