"Dan could not have been more helpful or supportive throughout my job search. When my CV was initially knocked back because the hiring firm couldn’t see the relevance of my experience as I transitioned industries. Dan advocated for me. I was then invited in and after a competitive three-stage process, I secured my dream job. It would not have been possible without Dan’s support and attention. Cannot recommend his work highly enough. Thank you! " - Anna Glynn
