She's excited by her future, and volunteered these comments about the job and Job Market Access Center:"I'm pleased with the size of this agency, its reputation and clientele, the growth opportunities, compensation, the products and services it offers, and the key personnel I'll be working with.
"Spending the day with Lucy C was one of the most valuable aspects of my experience. I needed the one-on-one, personal time. Lucy's insights, expertise, experience, professionalism and intuition all went a long way towards building my confidence in the Job Market Access Center process/program and in myself.
"The questionnaires and exercises helped me to laser focus on what my heart was wanting and what my mind was needing. Having access to the technical people was fabulous. Chris was quick, proficient and amazingly resourceful. I felt much more confident having him there at the touch of the dial pad on my phone. Once the letters went out, the immediate responses kept my spirits up... it also kept me busy."
Linda also praised the resumes, sample letters, resume distributions, and the Job Market Access Center for advertised and emerging openings, finding growth firms and other appealing employers to contact, getting information before interviews, and more.

Peter I Now $180,000 Director of Research in Northeast for Pharmaceutical Firm-- "Exciting Opportunity on Ground Floor"-- "Job Market Access Center Did an Excellent Job"-- Praises Several Resources, Marketing Director Linda L
Title: Director of ResearchField/Industry: Pharmaceuticals
Compensation: $180,000
Reporting to the CEO, Peter will be responsible for all research activities at a start-up biotech company, including staffing, strategy, and fund raising. He's excited by the prospects, and volunteered good things about Job Market Access Center:"This is an exciting opportunity to enter on ground floor-- vibrant location, and broad responsibilities. My lack of gainful employment over the previous 18 months (but involvement in trying to start a business), was both a positive and negative. Age was not a factor.
"This particular opportunity came about through a network of previous colleagues. However, Job Market Access Center did an excellent job on refurbishing my resume, tips on finding contacts and feedback on approaches, and review of offer letter. Outside of this offer, I had more 'activity' with my updated resume than I had previously experienced."
Peter also praised the CEO Bio, letters, solutions for liabilities, communication strategy, Job Market Access Center, guidance on interviewing, and the close support of Marketing Director Linda L.
