"... I recently made a highly satisfying career change and submit the back page of my resume for posting at your website. I got the idea from
Mike's story and just copied the following from my Report. Interviewers told me the personal insights had tipped the scales in favor of contacting me. My toughest question to answer is "Why should we hire you?" The Report offered a number of reasons that I used to prepare a strong and honest answer. I used the motivators in the Boss and Relational tools to negotiate the terms of my compensation. You helped a lot during a stressful time for myself and my family. Many thanks!! — Bud Brickman, U. S. A. (Kinsmen/Healer/Visionary)
