"Here is our feedback in dealing with Controllers On Call in successfully filling our Accounting Manager vacancy. Our initial contact with Tali was a very informative phone
conversation that was not rushed and very customer oriented. Our second contact - well received by Tali and arrangements were made for a personal meeting to become familiar with our environment and better determine our needs. In our meeting with Tali and Vikki - Tali provided a very thorough explanation of the candidate screening process and Vikki asked numerous questions to determine required skills, experiences, and work environment
fit. The meeting was not rushed and I felt that due time was taken to learn
about us and our needs. Subsequent phone discussions - assured that my delay in returning
the agreement did not delay their search for candidates for us. Controllers On Call provided a successful candidate within four days who was professional and appeared to have
the right mix of finance and people skills to fill our need was found very suitable and
professional.
To date, we are pleased with the level of experience and enthusiasm Todd
brings to us. He is currently involved in the recruitment process for
another member of his team and the re-organization of duties among his
staff. He appears very motivated and is looking forward to learning more
about the international finance operations of our company."

"Hi this is from World Youth Day 2002 (WYD2002). I think it's nearing the end of your working term at WYD, and I just wanted to say thanks again for all of your help. You truly were a God-send, and I just wish the Big Guy Upstairs sent you our way a few months earlier! Thanks for your quiet, efficient, and meticulous style of work. You were an excellent role model, and certainly a calming influence on me and others in our somewhat fast-paced office.
How you managed to finish all of the required tasks is beyond me, and was certainly a testament to your talent, persistence, and dedication. We really couldn't have done it without you, or I guess we could of, but it would be one heck of a mess. You had one of those jobs that no one knows about; in the background and to others the whole thing just "happens". I guess that's the beauty of what people like you did, you helped make the event spectacular, much more than just a "magic show". So thanks and I wish you the best in your future endeavors, though you'll have no problems with that.
Thanks and take care."
