Testimonials:

Thanks. And – PHENOMENAL JOB to Russ on this candidate. Not only did he find me a

total superstar but I also requested a totally different interview and selection process than we

are normally accustomed to – Russ came through and really found quite a few high-level

candidates and made the process easy for me and for others who were involved (Alan,

Darren, Mike) - Jessica Manna, Chief Marketing Officer

I was thinking about how lucky I am that Russ came across my resume on Monster and now

I have the opportunity to work with such a nice group of people like yourselves. I think

perhaps it was fresh in my mind as a few of us stayed late chatting yesterday and it was

great to just hang out together even if it was in the office. – Penny Oyer, Licensing

Specialist

Can you contact Felix and Mark and let them know the position has been filled? Thanks for

all of your help on this. You made the process very easy for me. – Alan Rabideau, Director

of IT

We have had many people in your position over the years and no one has performed like

you. We are extremely pleased with your performance to date. This class was heads above

the previous one. As you get better at recognizing relevant talent and JR gets better at

developing new LO’s faster, you will see a ton of successful graduates. – Michael Isaacs,

President and CEO
