I received a call from a recruiter in 2013 that asked me to come in for an information gathering interview. I met with the recruiter at their office. They went through my resume with me, asked me what I wanted to do, and gave me pointers and tips to help me on my job search. I briefly met with another recruiter before I left who asked me more detailed questions about my position history. They did not call me in to interview for a specific position, they are a search firm and they have clients that are individuals looking for new opportunities and they have clients that are businesses looking for the right fit.
They were able to set me up multiple interviews with multiple companies until we found the right fit. Now that I am looking for my next challenge, I will be contacting them again, as they had access to open positions that weren't publicly posted and I was impressed with the quality of positions that they referred me to.
Some of the interviews they set up for me were harder and more in depth than others, but the interview directly with Ferreri were pleasant and professional.
