What are the most rewarding aspects of your job?

The most rewarding part of my job comes at the point where you know your client so well that when you speak to that "perfect candidate" you know it immediately. Really it boils down to placing good people at good companies.

About the Company:
PowWow Consulting was founded in early 2008. We are a small business that believes in quality over quantity. By staying
small we are able to offer special one and one interaction with each client. PowWow???s appeal to customers can be easily summed with this phrase: Personal Attention.
PowWows (from the Native American pau wau) were traditionally meetings held prior to a hunt. The purpose of the
powwow was to prepare the hunters for the trials ahead. PowWow Consulting provides the modern equivalent to
the traditional pau wau, by preparing the job hunter for the job market. My goal is to provide useful tools
and information to help you succeed in your hunt. Just as a hunter would not attempt to hunt without proper tools
and knowledge, the job hunter should not perform their search without a proper resume and plan of action.

Having done significant market research on my competitors I can safely say that this concept of actively working
with clients is unique.

My belief is that your decision to work with me stems from an honest desire to achieve your employment goals.
How can someone effectively help you if they are unaware of what your goals truly are?
