Mary was an excellent mentor who taught me a how to be a successful recruiter in an industry full of "paper shufflers." Mary was always there to answer my questions as well as assist and support my goal of being the best recruiter I could be. I worked for Mary for over 11 years and she was instrumental in changing my life for the better.
