I am excited to continue developing talent solutions and consulting resources that move the needle for clients here in Connecticut, and globally. One of the first things that drew me to Vaco is the positive culture and wide range of solutions that we can offer our clients. Vaco’s suite of services ranging from traditional recruiting to in-house consulting, and retained search paired with our unique relationship-driven approach is unbeatable.”
