Re: [agile-30] Gigs and recruiting...

Amanda,

My name is Dylan Campbell.  I'm a senior recruiter at a placement firm
called Highlander Solutions.  If anyone wants to contact me, or send
me their resume I'd love to talk to them.  Additionally, I try and
make it to more events so that they can put a face with the email.  If
anyone has any questions; have them give me a call.
