Chief Executive Officer

The sign of a great recruiter is their ability to manage this process without resorting to either misrepresenting the opportunity to the candidate or misrepresenting a candidate to an employer. James is on a VERY SMALL list of recruiters that I have seen manage that balance very well, with integrity and honesty on all sides.
