Mark Q Wins $78,000 Financial Analyst Post with Electric Utility on West Coast-Found Many SET Resources Helpful, Praises Campaign Manager Bob W

Title: Financial Analyst
Field/Industry: Electric Utility
Compensation: $78,000 annualized

 Reporting to a Department Head, Mark will be supporting the Project Management function with financial analysis and guidance. His comments:

     " ...there are great opportunities with this organization, and after a few months, who knows?"

 In commenting on what helped him most in his search, Mark had this to say about SET's guidance:

     "First, the realization that conventional job searching techniques were not going to work, as Bob W had advised early on in the campaign. A second point of interest was the transfer of skills to a completely new business sector. Bob provided great assistance in the 'leap' from aerospace and electronics to my new position as a financial analyst."

 Mark also commented on suggestions for career and industry options, the communication strategy, help with interviewing, negotiating and networking, the resumes and letter samples, use of the website for finding openings, emerging opportunities, employers to contact, growth firms and other purposes, the resume distributions, and ongoing services from his Information Services team.
