Client comments on how SET services resulted in an excellent employment opportunity in the the Pacific Northwest. 482

Gary K Wins $96,000 Consultant Post with Major Wireless Telecom Firm in Pacific Northwest-Credits Resume, Marketing Plan, Advice on Negotiations-Praises Campaign Manager Claire R

Title: Consultant
Field/Industry: Wireless Telecommunications
Compensation: $96,000

Reporting to the Director of Intercarrier Services, Gary will negotiate contract rates with other cellular carriers, convince rural cellular carriers to build with a specified technology, and identify areas to profitably build cell sites. He's enthusiastic about this position, as shown by his comments:

"It gives me high visibility. The CEO and CFO receive reports on my progress weekly. It gives me the opportunity to work in the mergers and acquisitions area of the business. And the one-year contract will likely result in a long term position."

Gary gives SET a lot of credit for his success:

"The resume I produced on my own was average. The resume produced by SET projected an executive image. The marketing plan guided me on how to spend my time. The suggestions on how to approach the package negotiations were worth a lot. The original offer was a 1-year contract at $87.5K. We countered with $96.2K plus 3 weeks paid vacation. The counter offer was accepted."

Gary felt almost all of SET's resources were helpful. He liked the suggestions for career and industry options, the communications strategy, the Personal Profile, and the ability to identify all his strengths. He used the website frequently for many purposes, and noted the effectiveness of the resume distributions. He commented specifically on the support he got from his Campaign Manager Claire R.
