Daniel was the greatest recruiter I have worked with and it was pleasure for me to work with him. Daniel is very nice, transparent and very attentive to find the best job to his candidates. He was able to fix many interviews with very good companies in a very short time. With his great organisation and strong connections to the companies, I could get fast feedbacks and I even had the chance to choose between several options.
I would recommend Daniel strongly and thank you for your perfect service :).During the process he was a great counselor and was always focused to find the company that suited me best.
