Client was meaningfully employed with a direct lending group doing well, but he was bored and the money wasn’t good enough. He came to us to get a better sense of direction and being a “shoot from the hip” attorney with international criminal case experience, his personal style wasn’t as accommodating and “corporate” as it needed to be to best present his copious business abilities. After distributing his new GCM resume, People Management International made contact concerning a CEO position in Spokane. He was also contacted by Robt Half and Security Properties, but no suitable match was made. He was then contacted by Sound Pacific Capital and a lengthy interviewing process of over 2 months commenced. While initial interview training had previously been done, a series of meetings and phone calls with GCM to fine tune his presentation were conduced throughout the interview process. Through regular sessions with his career consultant, he was able to curb his “wild west cowboy” approach to being overly outspoken, hone his presentation, stay focused and work continually to uncover needs and build value. A long drawn-out process with exhaustive checking of references and past work history was shaped by the client with his professionalism, commitment and insight into the company and position. First offer was beyond expectation and accepted. Client: “I signed the deal … and I am happy as a clam. I hope our paths cross again”
