Having twenty five years with the same employer and an out of date resume, I found myself looking to finish my career somewhere else. The learning curve was long and steep, but using methods and lessons learned from Interview Success Formula, I participated in phone interviews, Skype interviews and several face to face interviews. Each time I learned a little more. Interview Success Formula was a fantastic resource and support. First thing I learned is age discrimination is real! Children half may age with no experience were hired while I saw my peer group move on to the next posted position.
I answered an ad for one job opening and while on the interview the interviewer said, "We are considering creating a new position and I believe you would be a good fit". Minutes later the CEO and I were discussing his needs and hopes for the new position. Two hours later we had a very rough draft of a business plan. Over the next two weeks we finished the business plan. We presented it his finance committee, executive board, and then the full board, who approved the plan. I signed an employment contract for the position I helped create, with the compensation package I put together.
It took thirteen months but Interview Success Formula was with me every step with tangible support, worksheets, and insights to help guide me.
Thank you.
