#PLACEMENT

This was one of those " when you know - you know" kind of placements. And, it required an incredible partnership between myself and the candidate.

What does that mean ?

It means the candidate was quick to do a VISUAL PROJECT - call it SWOT analysis that was based off a " data dump " I gave her from a previous candidate's project .

She turned her resume into a pictorial of her career to date. IMPRESSIVE;

Importantly , she answered every phone call and text of mine within 3 -4 hours - ROCK STAR.

We prepped for every interview. - AMAZING

We debriefed after every interview. - AWESOME

Her references were at the ready when I called. - THANK YOU

This amazing lady will be one of the next residents of Chicago ( next to a pickle ball court)

Congratulations to the client and to the candidate - GREAT WORK.
