SET — Job Search Success Stories

Client comments on how SET services resulted in an excellent employment opportunity in the the South East. 1398

Sylvia Y Wins $105,000-plus VP Business Infrastructure Technology Post with Major Financial Institution in Florida-Praises Resume, Website, Confidence-Building Process, SOAR Stories and Communication Strategy

Title: VP-Business Infrastructure Technology Leader
Field/Industry: Financial Services
Compensation: $105,000 base plus bonus, stock option

Sylvia will be responsible for technology planning, project delivery, service deliveries, and technology budgeting for Treasury Services. She's delighted. Here are her comments:

"This position met my criteria for level, complexity, scope and visibility. Also, this job transitions me to one of the leading business areas of the company and opens up additional career paths not possible for me in my previous job. After being out of the market for 2 years, wanting to relocate to Florida, and still maintaining my approximate income level in NY, I consider this a great entry point back into the work force."

What part of SET's resources helped her the most? In her own words, several things:

"Most of all, the perspective on my career of accomplishments vs. just mere chronology. From now on, I will always think in terms of good 'stories', making those stories happen and, of course, documenting the stories for the list. This is critical."

"The experience of letter sending and following up was very good to build confidence and keep the wheels turning. In addition, the database helped me to learn the Florida market, which was completely new to me. Having many sources in one place was very time efficient."

Sylvia said she used the website for finding openings, growth firms and other employers to contact, advanced strategies and other purposes. She also pointed to the distributions as helpful, as well as the Personal Profile and all three resumes. She also put a lot of value on her relationship with her SET team and their ongoing services, and made particular mention of her Campaign Manager David S.
