David is by far one of if not the best recruiter I have ever worked with in my career. David placed me at Holland Mark Advertsing 10 years ago. When I found myself in a similar situation in 2009, David was my first phone call in terms of discussing my career goals and opportunities that were currently available in the Boston market. David understands the discipline of marketing communications and not only acts as a recruiter for his clients but also as a consultant. He works very hard on behalf of his clients to ensure that the fit between employer and employee is the right one. He is available to answer questions and guide the process flawlessly. I’m pleased to have known David for over 10 years now.
