Philippe Houtart

I have more than 14 years professional experience in recruitment within all types of organizations. During these years, I have acquired a very good knowledge of recruitment process. I am specialized in the recruitment of IT profiles and I feel comfortable with Finance - Sales and HR profiles. I am naturally good at dealing with people and have a good sense of empathy. I can easily understand the needs of the business as well as the skills and expectations of the candidates.
