The whole team under the lead of Mara is very well organized, has a serious know-how, i was able to see some of the best people in the market in my shortlist. Every advice I got from her was so much to the point and so useful. All along the process I was feeling confident that with the help of Mara and her team I will be able to find the right person, and I did!
