I found you very thorough and helpful during the recruitment. You had a very nice manner about you and you did not push me into doing anything. Recruiters tend to try and push you into doing things and you walk away thinking this sales person has sold me something I’m not happy with. I would 100% recommend you to others. When I advised I wasn’t going to take the job then you were very nice about it and all about doing what is right for you.
