Steve had lead a number of Public Relations and Community Relations projects for his current employer but his main responsibility was as a claims agent. As a client he was very creative and charismatic with a desire to put his degree in Public Communications to use (he more or less into his present position due to family responsbilities). His previous resume got him across very well, but as a claims adjuster. He wanted off that track so came to GCM for assistance and guidance. GCM helped him pull all his creative experiences together into a coherent resume oriented toward PR, Marketing & Communications Mgmt, plus encouraged him to build a formal creative portfolio. He was rebranded with new marketing materials and intensive interview prep so he wouldn’t present himself like a claims agent and thus work against the new resume. Being creative, he rose to the occasion, got interviews with Boeing (direct mail contact) and PRR (found him online). $69K and all the benefits met his goal requirements and he left the insurance claims world behind.
