I enjoyed my interactions with Mykla and Ashley. My interview with Mykla was especially well executed on Mykla's part. Mykla is professional, courteous, friendly, and knowledgeable regarding many industries and also the professional interview process. Mykla's interview style allowed us to stay focused on the important information. With their assistance, I applied for and was hired for a management position, in my industry, in less than two weeks.

Julia was my main point of contact during my entire interview process. She was very helpful and gave me some great advice about the company I was interviewing with. She also checked in on me throughout the entire process making sure I needed anything. I ended up getting the job I applied for and Julia played a huge role in that. Definitely recommend!
