Client comments on how SET services resulted in an excellent employment opportunity in the Rocky Mountain states. 460

Fred D Now $150,000 Regional Director in Mountain States with Provider of Wireless Internet Services for Voice and Data -- "Very Good Fit" -- Praises SET Resources, Guidance and Support

Title: Regional Director
Field/Industry: Wireless Internet Services-Voice and Data
Compensation: $150,000 base

Reporting to a Regional VP of Sales, Fred will be responsible for account management of all existing customer accounts to include: initial service/billing turn-up, ongoing customer quality assurance, upgrade selling to existing account base. He is thrilled with the offer, and volunteered this:

"This is a very good fit with my past experience in telecommunications. It met my target base pay/total pay package requirements. It's a perfect hit on location, since the office is 6 miles from home. I get equity, and wanted a Director position."

Fred had many positive things to say about SET. Here are excerpts:

     "I was able to approach the market professionally and leverage SET's knowledge of current trends and best practices, especially in the more electronic job search market of today. I had a better resume through the SET resume creation process. The SARs were very effective in organizing myself to tell my story. I learned how to present many years of diverse experience as a plus instead of a liability."

     "The structuring of my search as a marketing campaign with multiple channels to approach the market and defined monthly objectives was right on. The monthly reports created a discipline. Having a plan kept me going. I knew what I was going to do and it was just a matter of time until something broke my way. I definitely improved my interviewing skills by using the SAR technique. It really works. As time went on I got more sophisticated at 'soft control' and was able to turn more interviews into dialogs.

     "Having the web site was great. Having a centralized, structured framework available 7 by 24 was ideal. You could always go back to the web site and review techniques, search for openings, recruiters, VCs, etc. It provided a focus for my campaign. I enjoyed my dialogs with Gordon and appreciated the access to professionals like Jan. She was always a joy to work with and taught me a lot. When I finally accepted my offer, I felt comfortable that there were no hidden curve balls in the deal."
