“Experience was a huge roadblock for me. No one wanted to hire me without 3-5 years of experience for an “entry-level” position. I had searched for two years before using these tactics. Now I have a job in my field.”

“Even though most people have a job, or will want a job at some point, I’ve yet to meet anyone who is a professional job searcher. Why?

This book walks you through job hunting strategies, building a power resume, crafting a personal career brand and optimizing your LinkedIn profile. Follow the steps Chellie lays out and you’ll be the job candidate all the hiring managers and recruiters remember. I believe so strongly in Chellie’s expertise, that I signed my son up for the online course. Since working through the course and directly with Chellie over the past few weeks, I’m happy to share that he just received his first interview request and another company has requested his resume. Those are texts from a college senior that a dad loves to get. Thanks Chellie!”
