When Robert first joined a Worksearch meeting it was easy to tell he not only knew his way around the tech sector but he also had a firm grasp on the new way of thinking about Worksearch. Robert’s insight and his natural way with people made him an instant leader in the group. Within weeks he was facilitating meetings and working one on one with other members.
