“What makes David unique is his ability to act as part of the team. He endeavors to understand your business better than you do. He is strategic. He is both time and cost conscious. What I like most about his capabilities is his skill at challenging your beliefs and preconceived notions so that you can mutually arrive at the candidate you actually need and not what you casually think you require.”
