4mation Partners

I am assisting 4mation partners from the top down and bottom up, to #winthewarontalent.

As a contingent staffing business within the technology area, my aim is to focus on working with our partners to bring their conversion ratios across all hiring processes of technology contractors, to at least 3:1.

CV sent > Interview.
Interview > Placement.

This is the true measure of success and failure within this industry.
