After a challenging 7-month job search after graduating, I was fortunate to connect with Karen Cummins at Cavendish Maine. From our first conversation, Karen truly listened to what I was looking for and remained supportive, proactive, and focused throughout the process. Thanks to her dedication and insight, I secured exactly the role I had been hoping for. I couldn’t recommend Karen more highly — she made all the difference in the end and I cannot thank her enough.
