Mark Fleschler, Senior Platform UI Engineer, SuccessFactors

“Jim was recommended to me by a few former colleagues and I must say that my experience working with him was a complete pleasure. He was very patient in dealing with my timeline and competing opportunities, and was very timely with his communications with me. I felt that of all the recruiters I talked to this last year, Jim was by far the most personable, professional, and friendly one to work with. He presented very intriguing opportunities, and had a lot of insight as to current trends and what options were worth pursuing.

I would definitely recommend others to get in touch with him if they are talented and looking for a better opportunity. I would definitely think of Jim in the future if I needed to make another career move.”
