Professional Recommendations

  • I've interacted with Tim several times on open source projects. He's smart, he learns fast, and he's eager to contribute. Tim's always impressed me as mature for his age. Another quality I highly value is Tim's willingness to experiment with unfamiliar technologies, and to not say "that's not possible" but instead "I wonder if...". Tim is a strong programmer, and he would be an asset to any ColdFusion development team., 01/22/10, Marc Esher, Technical Consultant, Broadridge
  • I would like to recommend Timothy Farrar as a candidate for a position with your company. In his position as ColdFusion developer, Timothy was employed in our office from 09/24/2009 to 01/19/2010. Timothy did an excellent job in this position and was an asset to our organization. He has excellent written code and verbal communication skills, is extremely organized, can work independently, and is able to effectively multi-task to ensure that all projects are completed in a timely manner. Timothy was always willing to offer his assistance and had an excellent rapport with clients and coworkers.
