Appreciation
1. From client M. for Ramesh Shivakumaran:
“Hi Ramesh, Thank you for the fantastic session today on LinkedIn Analytics!”
2. Client V. had this to say about his TBG experience:
“The way TBG broke everything down was phenomenal – not just Larry, but the writing team and the rest of the support team. They show you the way to get into the cracks and back doors of organizations. They set up your profile and find hundreds, if not thousands, of people that are connected to you in some way and how to network with them. Even though I’m no longer looking for a job, I’m still networking. Networking didn’t end when I found a job. It exploded in multiple directions!”
He said he would recommend TBG to people and, in fact, already has. “What I gained from this experience is not only how to help in landing a new position, but also how to network for the rest of my life. Even after the program has ended, the contacts I have made I will continue to maintain and grow. It was absolutely money well spent.”
3. From Barbara Limmer to our writer and content producer, Julie Norwell:
“I wanted to reach out and let you know that the two “mistakes” articles you wrote about the job search and interviewing are exceptional!
I know we had a conversation about one of these… Not sure which of the topics it was or if we covered both… and your articles I think are two of the best articles I’ve ever read about the job search (and I think you know that I’ve read TONS!).
Thank you for doing what you do… you are incredibly talented in both writing and speaking, and TBG is quite fortunate to have you on our team!”
4. Client J. shared this with Paula Nordhoff and Lori Chevalier:
“Thank you for the words of encouragement. I appreciate it thoroughly, Lori Chevalier! Paula Nordhoff, the coaching and negotiation prep was paramount in leading me to discover things I would not have discovered otherwise.”
5. From client N. to Waffles Natusch:
“Waffles, I just wanted to say that as a client going through this process, I am very impressed with your team so far. Thank you for putting in place a system with highly skilled professionals that understand how to get things done.”
