Client Testimonial by Ehab Sayed, CEO & Founder of Biohm: "It is incredibly rare to find a recruiter who instantly understands the company-wide needs and culture, Biohm’s unique philosophy and approach, and the radical first-of-their-kind biotechnologies that we develop. We were very privileged to find Zoe, who has single-handedly, with her expansive network, had a transformational impact on our team and company by recruiting unique, perfectly aligned, highly sought after, and difficult to find niche talent. It is an absolute joy to have worked with Zoe on the big recruitment push we experienced this year and look forward to many more in the future."
