Posted by Britanie in CEO ‐ 0 Comments
People tend to become miserable at their own expense. We are a society built on making money and pleasing people. But, this becomes problematic when we spread ourselves too thin, accept jobs we don’t want for the sake of cash, and for a variety of other reasons.  Sometime our circumstances can create misery, too.

LinkedIn…. Is It Worth It?

Posted by Britanie in CEO ‐ 0 Comments
Books have been composed about LinkedIn and its role with employment today. While many people praise the social media outlet for allowing professionals to network and connect, it isn’t the job resource many candidates would like to believe it is. In fact, relying on LinkedIn can stall your job search. Ask yourself how many people you actually know who found a job on LinkedIn.
