Career Services
DDG has recently partnered with the founder of a leading firm that specializes in helping professionals across banking, investment management, consulting and fintech craft their career stories, expand their opportunity sets, connect with the right people, and eventually land new opportunities.
​
​Whereas DDG works with firms to place talent, this individual will work directly with you to help you find your next great opportunity. He is not a recruiter - he is amazingly well connected in the industries above and is a great asset for anyone that wants to enhance their approach to landing their ideal role at a top tier firm.
​
Of course we at DDG would love to have a role for everyone but unfortunately that will never be the case. This service is perfect for those that don't fit any positions we currently have open, especially if you are a looking for a senior role that isn't often advertised on your typical job boards.
​
Reach out today to greatly increase your odds of finding your next big thing. No commitment for an intro call to discuss if the service is right for you!
