Consultant at Executive Recruiting Entrances

What a delight to meet Joshua in person at the January '07 live networking meeting for L.A. Metro Recruiting Network. He's enthusiastic, energetic, and can't help but infect everyone else with all of that positive energy. He sucks up all the knowledge he can and then generously shares it. Such admirable qualities. I'm certain his consulting services reflect them.
