A client sent me this note:
Hi Clay,
Just wanted to send you a little “thank you”. It has taken 6 months,
but I just accepted a new position. I wanted to share with you that I
received a lot of positive feedback regarding my resume. Many
commented that when we met in person that my resume matched my
personality and really accurately portrayed who I am and what I am
about.
This new position, I am making 20% more, better benefits, more
vacation, casual work environment and best of all summer hours!

This note made me feel good, but it’s always nice to hear good things about your work. It’s also great that my client has found a job with better pay, benefits, and vacation. But we can’t ignore the hard facts. It took this client 6 months to find a good job. A winning job search requires patience and perseverance. My client stuck it out and won the prize. Be strong and keep the faith.
