I am a senior business professional who lost a great job due to a corporate re-organization. I initially tried to go it alone and, using methods and processes that had worked for me in the past, spent about 6 months trying to find a new opportunity. Given my age and compensation package I was hitting a brick wall...I generated a number of phone screens and face-to-face interviews but kept getting rejected because I was "over-qualified" (read as "too old") and/or I was rejected because of my compensation history, even though I clearly communicated that I was willing to negotiate salary and had at least 10 years of service left before retirement. I turned to Stewart, Cooper & Coon for the expertise and tools necessary to overcome these obstacles. Working with my assigned coach and other resources within SC&C was a very positive and supportive experience. Among other benefits they: a. Updated and improved my resume and cover letter. b. Worked with me to document and quantify success stories from my past and posted these to an on-line WebFolio that could be accessed by potential employers. c. Provided access to databases that I could use to generate lists of target companies and third-party executive recruiters that specialized in my field of business expertise. d. Coached me on interviewing techniques and provided practice role-playing sessions which greatly enhanced my confidence and ability to highlight the value I could bring to a potential employer. e. And many other value-added activities that are too numerous to list. In short, working with SC&C is an investment in your future and I would recommend them to anyone who is serious about taking their career to the next level.

I spoke with the helpful staff at Stewart Cooper & Coon back in late of October of 2016 regarding the process, and started out with an executive agent. I am happy to say that I have finished the process; after signing up on October 10th, I am now officially employed as of February 25th, 2017. It took me less than five months, from beginning to end. I followed their directions diligently, and developed my network while they worked on my resume and webfolio. They held to all of their promises from the beginning. My campaign manager, whom I directly worked with on a weekly basis, was amazing. She guided me through the program and remained patient with me while I had to attend to some personal issues. Even during these difficult times, she hung in there, cheering me on, and worked to keep me on track.

How did I get my job? While using my network and putting my webfolio out there, a friend of mind saw it who was not familiar with my work history. He was simultaneously capitalizing on an opportunity and needed someone with my skill set. I never interviewed, but I received a call from my friend and we worked out a fantastic arrangement for the both of us.

I wanted to share this with you, as I had I full faith in the capabilities and results potential for those who stick with the SC&C program.
