    With real and frank information, I answer your questions like: Where are the jobs? Understand the employer goal of eliminating candidates. Why won’t a recruiter find me a job? Who is responsible for your job search? Why aren’t I getting interviews? Do you need a LinkedIn profile? I have all skills, why won’t they consider me? What is your elevator beach?
