“Great service. Thank you!” [Beth Hoffman]

“Jessica Fung has provided excellent customer services since she has been assigned as HR Coordinator for Student Housings student recruitments a year ago. This case and the other four (00941933, 00946845, 00955089, 00960273) regarding our Orientation Leaders which we hire up to 500 students, has to be one of the smoothest recruitments we have ever had! I cannot thank Jessica enough to make this process so seamless this year.”
