David is by far one of if not the best recruiter I have ever worked with in my career. David placed me at Holland Mark Advertsing 10 years ago.

As an agency professional, transitioning to in-house/client-side can be a daunting challenge. David helped me transition my career from a PR agency to managing digital and social media marketing at ASICS America. Not only was he my “in” to the company and position before it was publicly posted, he also stayed in constant touch to update me with any news and was always available to chat on the phone before or after an interview to make sure I was doing everything in my power to position myself in the best possible way. I have never met a recruiter that is as excellent a communicator and am eternally thankful for his ability to build such a seamless bridge between employers and potential candidates!
