Comments:
I met with Elisa Swiller in Dec.2001. I had just moved to NYC and I
thought she was a headhunter. She was extremely pushy and I could tell
that she had no contacts to acutal perm. positions. She called me
the following day with a temp. job, which I accepted and it was
actually very good. It was easy work and the boss was so nice. I
just got a strange vibe from her and didn't find her trustworthy. I
did get paid ontime through Troy Associates.
