“To say Carina's tireless dedication to provide results and satisfaction is nothing short of impressive; would be an epic understatement. During my experience with Carina and Whitham Group as a whole, communication was seamless and extremely personable. I felt comfortable and confident that Carina’s diligence and expertise would match me with the perfect company; and the Whitham Group follow through absolutely succeeded in just that. I often had questions and every inquiry was answered promptly via phone call or email and sometimes both, (often long after normal business hours). Thank you Carina; for the absolute top-notch performance and communication.”

Carina will always take the time to really understand the type of person needed not only for the role but also for the organization and culture. Carina is methodical, works quickly, and is one of the best recruiters I have ever worked with. She is ambitious with boundless energy which is an attribute that makes Carina stand out.
