    Pros

    I have several recruiters working with me. Yes, I make them compete. Some will get back to me with high paying jobs, but I don't ever get an interview or contract. When Jen gets me a high paying job that meets my requirements, I get called for an interview, and 90% of the time, I start working there right away. (Sometimes I don't get the job, but that is my fault usually due to some minor lack of experience) But I want interviews, and she gets them to call me. Her on boarding team is effective to. If you want a job ASAP, and want a certain location for the best pay to match your experience, call Jen Barboza. I'm glad I do!
