Our Annual Summer Intern Program is in full swing! Recently we had our Recruiter Roundtable, where some of the best recruitment professionals in the DFW area take time out of their day to mentor our dynamic group. Thank you Morgan Woolson, Sydney Stafford, Chris Medina, and Peter French for your candid discussion and advice you offered our interns. You raised the bar and they learned so much!!
