Excellent service from Tom. Within just a week, he set clear targets for securing me a good opportunity by Friday—and everything went exactly as he planned. Throughout the process, he offered reassurance and made sure I had options, but ultimately, he guided me to exactly where he envisioned I should be. After speaking with the company, I can say it’s the perfect fit for me. I’m forever grateful
