Go to www.interviewondemand.com to make one for you! It takes 5 minutes and then you can send “you” to the hiring manager, human resource manager, or even your network.
Who better to explain why someone should hire you, than you?
Tell me what you think? Tell me if you try it. […]
References are so often an after thought, but they shouldn’t be. They should be on your mind (at least once a month). Even if you are not currently looking for a job. Let me explain. I will start with the negatives (those things you should pay attention to not do!).

I love technology - especially when it provides us with information that we did not have access to previously. Now you can hear me talk about topics of interest via a podcast. Check it out.

Our clients are looking to us to help them reduce hiring mistakes and maximize talent recruiting. PHC Consulting won’t pass a potential problem employee on to them.

I stole this graph from Alexander Kjerulf. Not sure that you should follow it but it is amusing. I find that people are too quick to quit and if they hung around and pursued other avenues within the organization their opportunities could be much greater than they are in the job market.

I will be heading to San Diego in late July for the AACC.
