It was a blessing from God that Bill found me through LinkedIn based on my experiences and most of having family members in the Marines at one point, we bonded well. Bill matched me with a Senior Inside Adjuster Position that came with much greater pay and benefits that gave me the comfort in leaving an extremely well and very competitive company for the one he placed me with. Because of the efforts Bill made to ensure that all my skills and talent had been presented properly to the hiring Carrier I was the top pick out of 50 applicants for the position. I would highly recommend Bill to place you with a good fitting position in Insurance!
