Bio
Benjamin Kent
There’s no hiding the fact that shopping for the next job opportunity is stressful. There’s also no hiding the fact that it often feels like recruiting agencies care only about the bottom line and look strictly at the numbers. In a cut-throat business where you aren't always professional matched to the opportunity you were searching for, Brookwoods Group has crafted a process where there's a greater chance for visibility and more of a foundation for her team to fight for you. Marilyn quickly proved that Brookwoods Group supports every single one of her clients through a rigorous process I’ve never experienced with a recruiting agency. I am grateful for her generous professional advise, candor, and opportunity to reiterate and refine myself for all opportunities to come. Thank you, Marilyn.

I've worked with Marilyn for years now and her level of commitment and thoroughness is second to none. She has an innate sense as to what is needed when presenting top candidates to clients. She has such a high degree of ethics with what she does and she ensures her candidates are up for roles that they can not only perform at a high level but that will also allow for career path growth and future opportunity. Marilyn is an outstanding professional and recruiter.
Kristen Palmer
Marilyn is the most professional marketing recruiter I've had the pleasure of working with in Houston. Not only does she care about her candidates, she also has deep experience in marketing that allows her to position the right candidate to the right employer. Her talent and marketing insights greatly benefit the Brookwoods Group. I highly recommend any Houston marketing professional looking to secure their next opportunity to leverage Marilyn's expertise and professionalism.
