Bio
Dan Eidsmo, PMP
I am writing to recommend John Ward for his work over the past 5 years. John is an excellent recruiter as he has formed life long connections with some of the most talented people in the industry. Whenever we were starting a project or needing a specific skill set I never had a concern that John would be able to find the individual with the skill and talent to deliver on the engagement. This did not mean we would just get anyone. They had to be collaborative, self starter, and team player along with the expected JDE skills. John was able to work his network and deliver top quality candidates that we could add to our team and he usually did it in record time. John also worked in sales delivering new opportunities for the JDE team. He is excellent on finding opportunities and bringing them to closure. Once the deal was done he would provide the right amount of oversight to both the project team and the client insuring that the job was delivered on time and within the budget. John is a high quality individual and would be an excellent Recruiter or Salesman for anyone desiring these skills and attributes.
