  • "I am in a business where I work with Human Resources executives on a level that they share their hiring needs with me and ask for recommendations for recruiters. Early on in Spano Pratt's existence, I recommended Rose's services. I knew Rose and her partner as they were competitors of mine in my past "life". I highly respected them. When one of my top executive clients asked for a referral I connected them with Rose. As I have a very close relationship with my client I shadowed their work with Spano Pratt every step of the way to be sure the quality was the same as I had experienced in the past. I was delighted when my client raved about Rose's work. My client reported that they were knowledgeable, thorough, personable, with top-notch responsiveness from Rose and her partner. Because of that positive outcome I have referred other clients to them - to the same rave reviews."
