- Krystal,
I must apologize. For some reason I thought you worked as an independent recruiter, but it looks like you work for Bonnier. I would have done my own homework on the company if I realized this. Thank you for the information. Do you work through any agencies that you would recommend for placing candidates in the publishing technology space.
Thanks again,
Paul

- Thank you very much. I have to say though, I am not familiar with this site and am still trying to figure out how I can best utilize the wealth of information on it. I work as a recruiter for Bonnier Corp, multimedia publishing co in NY. If you know anyone looking, I need sales people and web designers badly...
Thanks!
