Sean contacted me through LinkedIn and promptly set me up with an interview for a job very suited to my degree, which I now have confirmed!
He was very straightforward with the specifics of the job (Pay, expectations, benefits etc.) and kept close contact with both the job employers and myself.
Thanks Sean!
EDIT as google does not seem to let me review twice:
Vanrath has come through for me once again with the help of Phil
Phil had been firing on all cylinders from the moment I first called him, fighting on my behalf to land me the perfect role for myself. He gave me the realistic rundown of the availability options in my area, took the time to talk to me and understand what exactly i was looking for before pursuing the most fitting opportunities for me. In the waiting period between interviews and their feedback, he would keep in touch with the applied companies for constant feedback to give me on what stage they're at. Couldn't recommend him enough, very personable and truly cares for his clients. Thanks a bunch Phil!
Moving from America was a Big Move, specifically if what you do is entirely varies with Government regulation and legislation. VANRATH has got me a job in literally NO time with Help of Dan Morgan, he is great, prompt and reachable— he helped me through out the process even got me a perm contract. Very trustworthy and it was such an honor working with him and I would definitely recommend to other professionals.
