Ed S Now $60/hr+ Associate with IT Consulting Firm in Southern California-- "Allows Me Flexibility to Expand My Own Business"--Successfully Moves Beyond Telecommunications--Praises Marketing Director Jack W, Several Job Market Access Center Resources
Title: AssociateField/Industry: IT Consulting Firm
Location:California
Compensation: $60/hr + referral bonuses
Reporting to the Director of the Orange County Office, Ed will be conducting IT consulting for mid to large corporations. His responsibilities include management of ongoing client operations and/or leading client IT implementations. He's pleased, and made these comments:"The base compensation fell in my range. The firm allows me flexibility between projects to run and expand my own business. The environment is very much what I have experienced before with a major global firm. The major obstacle for me was my long tenure in the telecommunications industry. My first project is with a newspaper, so I am able to venture out into other industries.
"Jack W is a great resource and helped me prepare and market myself well to get in the door. Once I was in, he gave me a leg up in creating my interview and negotiating toolbox. But most of all, Jack was a great motivator.
"When I was down and out after several rejections, he helped me learn from the experience and was always very positive and upbeat. His energetic voice helped me pick myself up off the floor and move forward.
"The on-demand data query tools were of great help as well, helping me prepare informative questions on the companies I interviewed with. Very helpful and very responsive."
Ed praised several Job Market Access Center resources--the solutions for concerns, plan for developing interviews, the resumes and letters, resume distributions, ongoing services from his team, and the Job Market Access Center for growth firms, other desirable employers, recruiter openings, contacting venture capital firms, advanced strategies, information before interviews and more.

Location:North Carolina

Jason will be selling information technology platforms to the restaurant industry. Hes pleased and in conversation with Marketing Director Rob K, offered these comments: I like the opportunity for growth. The company wants to penetrate new markets. This situation will allow me to use transferable skills developed when I owned a franchised restaurant unit. I was concerned about overcoming the sense that I was too much of an entrepreneur to be considered in a new, corporate setting. I like the location and the culture in the new company. I liked the way the creative materials were crafted to lessen the sense that I couldn't return to a corporate setting where I'd have someone else as my boss. I also liked the Job Market Access Center research capabilities, and I appreciated your being available for coaching on interviewing and negotiating.
