WORK KUDOS RECEIVED
Acknowledgements
It should be noted that the below "kudos"/acknowledgments listed were said about the recipient without cueing. All of the people who choose to send the feedback sent it because they felt inclined to. This has been highlighted, because many people in the industries this writer has been apart of (recruiting, human resources, managed service provider (MSP), recruitment process outsourcing (RPO), ect) are sometimes encouraged to send surveys out once processes are completed, but this writer hasn't done that and just allowed feedback to take place naturally because then it would feel more organic and genuine overall.

"Hi Alexandra,
I would like to share the incredible experience we have had working with Dewayne in your team. He has been supporting me and +Kiriana Stukas with a tricky requisition and we wanted to share some key examples on the great support we have received.
- Sense of urgency. I am going on maternity leave and Dewayne has followed up with all different stakeholders to make sure we have a plan in place on time.
-Providing clear details on the process. We have had calls where he explained what's happening and next steps, and he follows up via email with clear links and steps for us to follow.
-Nice attitude. Dewayne is always smiling and willing to go over the information he shares.
Working with him in bringing a tempo to our team has been a pleasure and we wanted to share our experience with you :)
Have a great week!"

"Hi Dewayne,
I just want to once again express my appreciation for everything you did and said while being my recruiter. I did not have to do a 2nd interview virtual interview. They extended a job offer today and I’m so thankful. Although I counter offered, I am blessed to even get my foot in the door and have an opportunity with a company that’s expanding so much.
You are so great at what you do and do it with so much grace and respect. I know everyday isn’t easy and we have to make strides but people like yourself make it so worth while. I wish you well in your future endeavors. *Inserts Virtual Hug* "

LISA H, STAFF TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS CONSULTANT
"Hi,
I have been working with DeWayne on sourcing and onboarding a temp pgm. Throughout the entire process, DeWayne provided timely information, ensuring our ability to act quickly. Thanks to his diligence and attentiveness, we were able to quickly determine that our first choice candidate was going to decline the offer and issue offer to the second choice without risk of losing the second candidate.
He has also helped us understand the post-issue offer process, which I'm completely new to, and it has been super enlightening and helpful to have his expertise guiding our way.
Please pass along my thanks as you deem relevant."
