I would like to recommend Mr Peter Ferrante of National Executive (The Atrium on Bay, 595 Bay Street, Suite 1050, Toronto, Ont., M5G 2C2 Tel (416) 591-8800, Telex:065-28226) as a very good headhunter for UNIX jobs. I have been looking for a job as a C analyst/programmer under UNIX for the past two months (I found one) and have had the opportunity to get very frustrated with many employers' and headhunters' attitudes towards freshly graduated Computer Science majors. While I have a Master of Mathematics and have been working full-time for a year as a C programmer under UNIX, and have been using UNIX regularly for the last 3 years I did encounter many people along the way who would just refuse to acknowledge that my experience was worth anything. Mr Ferrante, however took me (and my salary requirements) seriously from the moment he met me and proceeded to introduce me immediately to different companies, all of which had interesting positions to offer. Mr Ferrante was very helpful throughout the whole process, discussing with me my preferences in working environments and taking care of small details such as finding out bus routes to the different companies. I was altogether very satisfied with his services and this is why I recommend him heartily. Sophie Quigley ...!{clyde,ihnp4,decvax}!watmath!saquigley
