They also spend as much time as possible with their extended families in Long Island and New Jersey and frequently visit the area.

Harrison's Comments About Becca Levine

“If Becca is representing me, I know that she will constantly be looking for new ways to place me because she is always learning. She will make me feel understood, take chances on me, be responsive to my calls, emails, and texts, and not involve her ego in representing me, which helps her write great letters that bring out my strengths. She will seek information from her peers and the company and see patterns in other recruiters’ actions (and markets) that help me. Becca will get excited about the market because she sees opportunities, is open-minded, and realizes a lot of what happens is random. Becca is fun to speak with because she is optimistic and appreciates candidates, firms, peers, and her job, company, and profession. She will not give on me and will be honest with me about what I can expect, so I know I can trust her.”
