Pros
Kayla Trevino has been absolutely phenomenal as my recruiter. She’s quick to get on the contracts I’ve requested, responsive, and helpful. Kayla has displayed professionalism with every interaction. She has no issues bargaining to get as close to my needs as requested and keeps me updated with every development. I’m thrilled to have her in my corner and look forward to a continued partnership!
Cons
I have no cons with Kayla! The only thing I could say would be I hope Host acquires more contracts in my area so I can continue working with her.

About
Nashville is Tennessee's capital city and lies along the Cumberland River. With its mild climate, it’s enjoyable to live, work and play in this musical city year-round. Nashville’s music scene has many draws, with attractions like the Grand Ole Opry, the Musicians Hall of Fame & Museum, the Country Music Hall of Fame & Museum and countless honky-tonk bars. Even if you aren't into music, other attractions appeal to a wide array of tastes, including historical landmarks like Andrew Jackson's Hermitage, where visitors can get an up-close look at the seventh president's home life on a guided tour. The Adventure Science Center, the Frist Art Museum and the Tennessee State Museum are just a few other popular institutions. Shopping enthusiasts won't want to miss Marathon Village, a former automobile plant, now serving as a contemporary space for art galleries, studios and flagship stores like Jack Daniel's General Store.
