Becky has come on board as one of our agency suppliers for retail field roles and in the short time she has worked with us has delivered a great caliber of candidates. I feel she takes the time to listen to who we are and what our needs are for individual roles and as a result has always delivered great candidates. Becky’s character is warm, personable and I have a great rapport with her. She has a wealth of experience and I am happy to be guided by her knowledge of her candidates.
