DSP has been recruiting for 25 years, built two 7-figure search firms, trained 600+ firms across six continents, and impacted more than 17,000 individual recruiters globally.

He's not a marketing consultant who studied recruiting. He's a recruiter who mastered marketing because he had no other choice. In 2008 he lost everything. The system he rebuilt from scratch is what 600+ firms now run on.
