It's my pleasure to recommend Rose Latka as she is truly one of the best recruiters I have worked with in my 20+ years of hiring people. Rose engages the hiring manager often to ensure the candidate search is on the right path. She demonstrates a focus on the needs of her client while also showing the utmost respect and consideration to the candidate. Her follow-up is impeccable as well. In closing, based on my experience working with her, I can unreservedly recommend Rose Latka as she would be an asset to any recruiting team.

I couldn't think of anyone more suited to, often times, be the first impression to an interested applicant. She's thoughtful, engaged, and understands what the role, team, and brand are looking for. Her sense of urgency is high and I've always felt she has the best interest of everyone involved front and center. Rose is an asset and I'm lucky to have had the chance to work with her as many times as I have.
