Brad Peacock, Area Business Manager for Three Rivers Pharmaceuticals, wrote on 2/19/09 (unsolicited): "Steve, There is a reason why I don't push to open up our doors and use other recruiters, even if it would mean that we get a greater sample size of candidates. I truly respect the seriousness and long term perspective you take to your business. Unlike other recruiters I have worked with in the past, you in my humble opinion, are concerned more about your long term reputation than the immediate commission."

After 2-1/2 years, Steve decided to open up his own office, where he has since made a major impact in placing numerous sales, sales management and marketing executives into medical, surgical, pharmaceutical and biotech companies.
