Bio
Carolina Gil
I had the privilege of working with Maya when she consulted to our company on placing high potential candidates in US Universities . She also was key on guiding aspiring professionals in defining and realizing their career goals. She is precise with her advice and her broad perspective helped our personnel see their goals with a clearer vision. She has a very impressive resume. She is well informed about the current trends in the Information Technology, Engineering and Management and allied professions and offered our company sound advice on the various steps of placing the candidate in the University. I was also quite impressed with the genuine interest she took in my career and the advice that she gave me in making further career moves. We became good friends after our experience working together.
