A Note from Gary

I’d like to thank everyone who has applied for a position with this agency. What an Absolutely Fabulous group of people.

Whilst writing this I actually have had an epiphany.

I realized that many positions that we have FILLED never appeared on this Current Openings page. Because we were so busy filling them, we didn’t have time to post them.

Due to the depth of talent that has been presented to us through your resumes. We didn’t really need to advertise the positions because we already had the candidates to fill them. So, get into the database.

I encourage any professional domestic, regardless of whether you see the position you’re looking for, to apply with our agency.

Wouldn’t I be clever if I knew what the next position available position might be?
