It was an absolute pleasure dealing with Rina at Cavendish Maine. From our first conversation, she demonstrated exceptional attentiveness. Her communication was brilliant; she was always responsive and kept me informed every step of the way. Rina went above and beyond, and the personal touch of a handwritten congratulations card after I landed my job was just wonderful. I wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone seeking a new opportunity.

I have worked with Cavendish Maine on many placements and they always get it just right in terms of 'a good fit' for our business. They really understand how we work and what candidates would suit our needs but also from the candidates perspective that our business would be a good fit for them. Cavendish Maine are always completely professional, responding to our communications with speed and diplomacy. I would highly recommend them.
