Report
Applied for a job through the cgc website and was contacted by one of the agent Mikaila O'Brien.
Went to the first round interview and got feedback from the company through the agent that they would love to have a second interview. So waited for a few days for the interview date and time to be confirmed. After deciding on the date, I had to chase again for the interview time to be confirmed. So i emailed again one day before second interview, I was told that the company decided to go hire someone else and no longer need to interview. Complete waste of time for preparing second round.

William Gardner's ability to match my skills and experience to his client's job details and needs is an excellent indication of his ability to successfully recruit the right candidates. His understandings and support through the recruitment process is spot on from my candidate's experience.
