Having spent ten years as a recruiter earlier in my own career, I have a pretty good feel for when someone is doing the right things. It's still a little early in the process since an interview with the client has not yet been arranged, but my instincts tell me I'm well represented.

I was impressed with James. As an individual that seemed to have genuine concern for a true fit, he probed for areas of overlap, took note of areas I pointed out where there might be synergy, and what really blew me away was when he spoke of a "story to tell". I got the sense that he meant it, that his desire was to paint a picture of how my experience could serve the client.
