“I had posted my resume on different job sites as I was being rolled out of a project that I had been working for almost 2 years, that is when I was contacted by Peter Lehrman at Mitchell Martin Inc, I had discussed with Peter about my technical expertise and the kind of job opportunities I was looking for within NY and NJ area. He asked me for my resume and promised me that he would get me an interview soon with one of his clients that he works with. I was a little skeptical being aware of the current economic trend, and as it turns out, he got me an interview and a job offer in a very short span with one of BIGGEST financial companies under the sun. Peter had been very professional and courteous from the time he has first contacted me to till date. He is very efficient, prompt and keeps you updated on the developments so that one knows exactly where they stand. I thank everyone at Mitchell Martin Inc, especially to Peter Lehrman for guiding me and getting me a wonderful job opportunity. Would I recommend anyone to work with MMI ? YOU

“Having more than 10 plus years of financial IT experience, I found Neeti as one of the smartest recruiters in the market. Having said that she made sure I got in the assignment without much pressure. It all started with the client interview scheduling. She pointed some very important aspects that the client was expecting, which helped me to align myself correctly. Even after the interview she called me and spoke like a
friend not like a recruiter. And when the joining date was delayed she kept constant contact(smart not letting the candidate outside) and helped me smoothly get in the job on time. I prefer and recommend to work with her in future.”
