About Shan my Story
The average job is turning over every  2-3 years – that is the norm now.  Gone are the days of working for 1 or 2 companies then retiring.

THE STORY

BEHIND THE PROGRAM 

For job seekers in a crowded, digital age,  your approach needs to include a more creative approach and new promotional tools to stand out and get noticed.

 

I have been a job seeker numerous times throughout my career and have experienced long term unemployment and hardship just like you. I know what you are going through. I was discouraged and aggravated hearing there were hundreds of applicants for a position I was being considered for. 

 

As a creative marketer, I made myself standout to land jobs.  Being connected to job seeker groups, I wanted to do more to help others discouraged in this process.

 

Through my passion to help those I identify and empathize with, I created ways to help shine a spotlight on your achievements, abilities and gifts.  So  reach out and get the help you need to land the job!

Help is just a click away!
