TESTIMONIALS
I find Jess Delahunt to be very engaging, dependable, and high in integrity. When we were in need of immediate staffing assistance before setting up our internal recruiting team; Jess was quick to help with our multi-lingual requirements. He is very effective at his job and it’s a pleasure to recommend him as an accomplished recruiting professional.
