    Andrea is amazing at her job. As an attorney, I was contacted every day by recruiters. I am beyond thankful I went with Andrea! Throughout the process, Andrea was helpful, thoughtful and capable. When we first started working together, she would regularly send me emails with multiple opportunities and all the information I needed to make a decision on applying. During the interview process, Andrea held my hand and checked in with me every step of the way, easing my anxiety immensely. Andrea helped me find a great new role exceeding all of my expectations.
