Stand up and do the difficult thing. You’ll stand out. - Lisa Rokusek
Approach
I am not a high volume kind of gal.
Some folks have a tolerance for flingin’ resumes at companies and hoping for a win; that kind of activity gives me hives. I think we get better results (or results that require fewer over-the-counter antihistamines) if we slow down, take some time to think, and position ourselves for the win. I like to be aware of potential train wrecks in order to successfully avoid them. I make a practice of listening attentively.
I represent talented individuals to companies seeking to hire the right people and I facilitate maximized decision making for the good of all involved. Essentially I play poker for a living. I like to stack the deck in my favor whenever possible. That means I ask a little more of both the companies and candidates I represent. I work hard to make better matches and attempt to avoid wasting as much time (yours and mine) as possible.
My goal is to create a higher amount of win for all involved (yes, that includes me).
It takes a little more effort, a lot more courage, and as always, a commitment to be aware, to care, and to do my very best.
The results are usually worth it.
