Bio
Sheronica (Taylor) Perry
Maria is an excellent recruiter. I was referred to her by a friend. She took the meeting and listened to the fact that I only wanted fractional/contract opportunities vs. trying to persuade me into a full-time role like most recruiters do. As promised, she kept me in mind for the right opportunity. She is very responsive and genuinely cares about the people she places. I look forward to working with her on my next assignment.
Eric Collins
Maria is a real pleasure to work with and was instrumental in me finding my dream job. She was supportive and communicative every step of the way and truly seemed to care about me and my career path rather than just matching a company with a candidate.
